Wide receiver Kris Mitchell has reportedly committed to Notre Dame football, per Hayes Fawcett of On3. Mitchell, who previously attended FIU, was a top 10 wide receiver in the transfer portal. The Fighting Irish are receiving a star in this move.

Notre Dame football enjoyed a strong 2023 season. They closed out the regular season with a convincing 56-23 win over Stanford. Overall, Notre Dame recorded a 9-3 record. Still, they would have liked to have had a chance of making the College Football Playoff.

The Fighting Irish will attempt to utilize the transfer portal to acquire more key players during the offseason.

Kris Mitchell heading to Notre Dame football

Mitchell performed well in 2023 for FIU. He had the best season of his college football career, recording 64 receptions and 1,118 yards to go along with seven touchdowns.

Overall, he finishes his career at Florida International with 100 receptions, 1,663 receiving yards, and 12 touchdowns. Mitchell improved in each of his four seasons at FIU, so perhaps he will take yet another step forward in 2024.

If he does, Notre Dame football's offense will feature a budding superstar.

The Fighting Irish have already been active in the transfer portal. They are expected to continue trying to add talent through the portal moving forward. Notre Dame would like to establish themselves as a national championship contender following their three-loss 2023 campaign.
