ESPNU 150 wide receiver Tai-ler Jones (Gainesville, Ga.) has decommitted from Stanford and is now set to sign as part of Notre Dame's Class of 2010, ESPN affiliate Web site IrishSportsDaily.com reports.

Jones was also offered by Alabama, Auburn, Oregon, Miami-FL, Oklahoma, Ohio State, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, UCLA, Tennessee, Clemson, Vanderbilt, Michigan, Michigan State, Florida State, Georgia Tech, USC, Maryland, Arkansas, Kansas, Ole Miss, West Virginia, N.C. State and Kentucky.

Jones made an official visit to South Bend and took in Notre Dame's close loss to USC Saturday. His father, Andre Jones, was a member of the Irish's 1988 national championship team before moving on to the NFL.

He told IrishSportsDaily.com, "I got to see the tradition that the players play with, and with the fans and what they exhibit before the game with the Irish walk, and how they take the whole day and they surround it with football. I also got to see the chemistry that the team played with, and no matter how the game went, they?re always being optimistic and thinking they can come back and win."

Last fall, he caught 81 passes for 979 yards (12.1 average) and 12 touchdowns. Jones also registered 28 tackles and two interceptions, earning all-state recognition.
