"Overall, it was a good decision": 5-star Notre Dame signee Jalen Haralson on his commitment to the Fighting Irish

Five-star prospect Jalen Haralson is wrapping up his high school basketball career, ready to take on the challenges of college basketball with Notre Dame next season. He made his commitment in September 2024, choosing the Fighting Irish over other top programs like Indiana, Michigan State, Duke, Kansas and LSU, among others.

"The ACC, it's a big-time conference, and I feel like it's the conference that will probably translate the most to the NBA. So overall, it was a good decision," Haralson said via 247Sports.com.

One major factor that influenced his choice was the presence of Notre Dame head coach Micah Shrewsberry.

"Coach Shrews, he was Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum's shooting coach, and that's something that I feel like I need to take the next step in my game. So I trust him to help get me there," he added.

Jalen Haralson will be joined by fellow class of 2025 prospects Ryder Frost, Brady Koehler and Tommy Ahneman, who also committed to Notre Dame.
