Al Washington Leads The Way For Notre Dame’s First-Year Coaches
Recruiting prowess could make or break a terrific teaching workers, particularly on this ever evolving NIL world. Teaching is at all times the baseline and most vital standards for a terrific workers. Recruiting affect, nevertheless, cannot be understated, and head coach Marcus Freeman made it a precedence for his new workers.
To this point his new hires have paid enormous dividends in Notre Dame’s quest to safe the highest ranked class within the 2023 recruiting cycle.
There won’t be an assistant on a warmer trajectory than line of defense coach Al Washington, who has secured three of this system’s final 4 commitments from the workers, together with the primary dedication within the 2024 class with Brandon Davis–Swain. Washington, who was a proclaimed recruiter whereas part of the Ohio State program, walked into the constructing with a few High 100 recruits on the line of defense with five-star Keon Keeley and Brenan Vernon.
The largest job was sustaining these commitments, particularly with Keeley, who’s being pursued by applications like Alabama, Ohio State and Florida amongst many others. That success has continued in 2023 with commitments from Boubacar Traore and Devan Houstan. With these 4 commitments, the 2023 line of defense class is on the verge of one thing particular.
Traore touchdown with the Irish was one thing that had been speculated since even earlier than he formally decommited. When he did make that call, it appeared prefer it was Notre Dame’s recruitment to lose. That should not, nevertheless, undersell the job Coach Washington did to shut the deal.
The Houstan recruitment had been an fascinating recruitment as a complete. There was at all times apparent curiosity with the Notre Dame program however issues appeared to go quiet for a pair months after Washington was employed. With Houstan having ties to the Michigan, in some way the Irish workers was capable of shut on the 6-5, 275-pound defender regardless of not making it again to campus since January.
Washington deserves quite a lot of credit score for that.
It doesn’t matter what line of defense recruit you speak to, Washington is rapidly talked about as a key issue to what makes Notre Dame particular, which is a big praise regardless of a brief stint with this system to this point. When you speak to Davis-Swain (who already favored this system), he went so far as to say that “Coach Wash solidified every little thing for him.”
It’s already a terrific class in 2023 but it surely has an opportunity to vault into the elite class if they will shut on Hyattsville (Md.) DeMatha Catholic star Jason Moore. Closing on Moore could be an enormous assertion from Washington, who has already asserted himself as a dominant recruiter on the path. If he can shut the way in which folks imagine then he has an opportunity to drag within the high line of defense class within the 2023 cycle total.
It’s exhausting to argue that any new rent has had an even bigger affect on the 2023 class than Washington. His recruiting prowess was well-known earlier than touchdown in South Bend however he has finished nothing however solidified that.

Mom, young son run from crazed otter who nearly drowned boy at Washington state marina, startling new footage shows
A crazed otter is seen menacing a family at a Washington state marina moments after it nearly drowned a boy it dragged off a dock, a shocking new video revealed.
The footage was taken last month, just after the twisted critter targeted a mom and her young son, according to KIRO 7 News in Seattle.
The youngster narrowly survived being dragged underwater by the rampaging river otter — which also attacked the boy’s horrified mom during a morning walk, authorities said.
The youngster was with his mother on a dock at Bremerton Marina in Kitsap County the morning of Sept. 12 when the otter pounced, according to the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.
None of the videos that KIRO 7 received from the Port of Bremerton show the actual attack happening, but in one clip, the terrified mom and son can be seen running down the dock — with the otter in hot pursuit moments later.
The group appeared to calm down before leaving the area, the clip showed.
Once they get up the exit ramps, the brazen otter hops back on the dock.
Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife officials said that in most cases, otters tend to shy away from people, KIRO 7 reported.
The boy — who has not been identified publicly — was taken to the hospital to be treated for bites and scratches.
Wildlife officials said they trapped and killed an otter in the area and were testing it for rabies.
The stunning marina attack came just days after a woman in Malaysia was left bloody and crying after she was mauled by eight otters during a jog.

Michigan vs. Washington: Where to watch, game information, betting line
No. 10 Michigan will play in its first road game of the season when it takes on Washington on Saturday night. While neither team looks the same from last season, the game will be a rematch of January’s National Championship Game where Michigan won handily. The Huskies, 3-2, are searching for their first signature win in the Big Ten and the Huskies could get that by defeating the Wolverines.
Michigan and Washington are meeting for the 15th time ever. The Wolverines hold a 9-5 all-time record over the Huskies and Michigan has won the past three meetings between the two teams. The last time Michigan was in Seattle to face Washington, the Wolverines lost 23-18 in 2001.
The Wolverines are hoping to see their passing attack progress on Saturday against the No. 6 Washington passing defense. But Michigan will likely need to rely on a strong run game behind Kalel Mullings and Donovan Edwards, along with stifling defense on the road.
Before the game, here is some important information you sould know.
Spread: Michigan +1.5 (-108)
Over/under total: 41 points
Moneyline: Michigan +102, Washington -122

Virginia man charged with defacing monument during Netanyahu protests in DC
A Virginia man was arrested Friday on a charge that he spray-painted graffiti on a monument in the nation’s capital during protests against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress in July.
Zaid Mohammed Mahdawi, 26, of Richmond, Virginia, was charged in a complaint with one count of destruction of federal property. He was among thousands of protesters who gathered in Washington, D.C., on July 24 to condemn Netanyahu’s visit.
Some demonstrators who gathered outside Union Station that day removed American flags and hoisted Palestinian ones in their place. Others burned flags and sprayed graffiti on structures in Columbus Circle, in front of Union Station.
Videos posted on social media showed Mahdawi climbing the statue of Christopher Columbus in the middle of Columbus Circle and using red spray paint to write “HAMAS IS COMIN” on the monument, according to an FBI agent’s affidavit. He also spray-painted an inverted red triangle above the slogan, the affidavit says.
The FBI later received a tip from a witness who knew Mahdawi from a Richmond gym and recognized his image in a police bulletin.
A group of protesters had a permit to demonstrate in front of Union Station, but the U.S. Park Police said it revoked the permit after it couldn’t reach protest organizers that afternoon. The National Park Service estimated that it cost more than $11,000 to clean up and fix damage at the site.
“Politically motivated destruction or defacing of federal property is not protected speech, it is a crime,” Matthew Graves, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, said in a statement.
Mahdawi was expected to make his initial court appearance in Virginia on Friday.
A Maryland woman was arrested last month on a related charge. Isabella Giordano, 20, of Towson, is accused of using red spray paint to write “Gaza” on a fountain in front of Union Station and spray-painting the base of two of the flagpoles in Columbus Circle.
