KU general manager Rob Ianello was the wide receivers coach and recruiting coordinator at Arizona when the elder Northcutt played there in the late 1990s.Dylan Northcutt, a three-star prospect, has recorded 29 tackles and two interceptions with 10 passes defensed for Notre Dame this season, according to MaxPreps.KU remained at a total of 16 commitments in its 2027 class, which it filled out primarily through a series of pledges in early June. That’s because according to multiple reports on Sunday night, linebacker JaMarquis Hudson, from Texas, flipped to LSU. Hudson had been KU’s most recent commitment prior to Northcutt but visited the Tigers over the weekend and selected a new school.
