In front family, friends and many of his high school teammates, Charlotte (N.C.) Catholic class of 2024 tight end Jack Larsen announced his commitment to Notre Dame over finalists Clemson, Michigan, North Carolina and North Carolina State on Friday, June 24.

Larsen informed the nation of the news during a stream on CBS Sports HQ, and Blue & Gold was at the four-star recruit’s announcement and recorded it all. Watch the video below, and make sure to subscribe to the Blue & Gold Youtube channel.

On3 director of scouting and rankings Charles Power on Notre Dame’s newest commitment

“Larsen is a pass-catching specialist who projects as a move tight end at the next level. He measured between 6-foot-2 and 6-foot-3 at around 215 pounds prior to his junior season. We see Larsen line up both in-line and split out as a receiver for his high school. He shows reliable hands both in game and camp settings and good ball skills on Friday nights, with the ability to come down with some contested catches.

“What sticks out the most about Larsen is his ability to track the football at this stage. He’s also off the line and shows some promise as a route runner. We’ll have to see how he grows, but Larsen currently projects more as an H-back from a size and frame perspective.”

According to the 2024 On3 Consensus ranking, Larsen is the No. 14 tight end and No. 245 overall player in America. In addition to his finalists, he also held offers from Alabama, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Ohio State and Texas A&M.

He gives Notre Dame four commitments early on in the 2024 cycle, joining quarterback CJ Carr and defensive linemen Owen Wafle and Brandon Davis-Swain.

During his first two season of high school ball, Larsen has recorded 34 receptions for 589 yards and six touchdowns, but it’s Blue & Gold’s understanding that his sophomore stats inputted to MaxPreps are incomplete, so his career numbers will improve when that’s corrected.

Larsen was named to the 2021 North Carolina Southwestern 4A all-conference team.

He caught six touchdowns as a freshman, helping lead Charlotte Catholic to a North Carolina 3A state championship victory.

Former Notre Dame offensive lineman Mark Harrell (2012-16) played his prep ball at Charlotte Catholic and is currently on the Cougars’ coaching staff.
