Jalan Haralson, the highest-ranked recruit in Notre Dame basketball history, has announced his intention to enter the transfer portal after just one season.

The 6-7, 220-pounder from Anderson, Indiana becomes the fourth Irish player to enter the portal this off-season, but certainly the most highly-regarded.

Haralson averaged 16.2 points and four rebounds per game in his initial season, often carrying the offense in the absence of the injured Markus Burton.  He shot 53.6% from the field, which ranked 5th in the Atlantic Coast Conference.  He was one of just six freshmen in a power conference to average at least 16 points, 4 rebounds and 2.5 assists. He produced double-digit points in all but three games this season.

Haralson is expected to be a coveted player in the portal. Some reports say that he will get NIL offers from schools that exceed what Notre Dame’s entire basketball roster made last season.

South Bend Tribune reporter Tom Noie says more transfers are expected from the Irish when the portal opens officially on Tuesday.
