Notre Dame made yet another move up Parker Boudreaux's long list of scholarship offers.

The four-star offensive lineman put the Irish in his top 10 back in April. On Wednesday, Notre Dame received a spot in Boudreaux's top five. The 6-foot-4, 294-pound recruit named Clemson, Florida, Oklahoma and Georgia Southern as the other four top schools.

Boudreaux, who claims 70 scholarship offers, made a two-day visit to Notre Dame last week. It was the first trip to South Bend for the Orlando (Fla.) Bishop Moore product. He said following the trip that he plans to return for another visit.

The news came on the same day when fellow Irish offensive line target Ben Bredeson, a four-star recruit from Wisconsin, gave his verbal commitment to Michigan. Boudreaux and Bredeson have been two of the top remaining targets for offensive line coach Harry Hiestand. The Irish currently have two offensive lineman — Tommy Kraemer and Liam Eichenberg — committed in the 2016 class.

247Sports slates Boudreaux as the No. 9 offensive guard and No. 190 overall in the 2016 class. Rivals ranks him as the No. 25 offensive tackle.
