Favorite Quote from the recruit:”I’ve been a big Notre Dame fan since I was a little kid, since the first time I watched the movie Rudy. It’s an unbelievable place. Not only do I love the coaching staff, I feel at home up there. There’s not really any other place like Notre Dame. You go there and there’s just the history and all of the national championships they won. They make me feel right at home when I go up there.”
Other Sports: Basketball, Track
Seer’s Vision: A Notre Dame fan since he was a child, living the dream of all Notre Dame fans. Another long, big, OT for the line. Maybe not as strong as he could be, however he will have plenty of time with Longo to get up to elite status. He seems to be a very balanced OT, being effective at both Run and Pass Block. He has a great recovery when he does make a mistake, from what I’ve read/seen on film. This stems from great athleticism for a guy his size. Playing basketball has surely helped this over the years. This guy also cut blocks like a champ, which is rare for his age. Overall this kid has a ton of offers from elite programs for good reason. One can pick out a few problems with his game, but there is a ton of upside. Given the right coaching, and if the kid plays with fire, he could be a huge (pun intended) contributor. He may play early, if he makes strides early. I’m feeling confident again, I’ve said 99% once today, but we’re talking about a kid who grew up watching Rudy. It’d take something big to get a de-commit here. I think he’s as good as Irish.
