New Offer: 2020 TN OL Bryn Tucker
Notre Dame is on the grind for 2020 as Knoxville Catholic (Tenn.) offensive line Bryn Tucker tells me the Irish just offered. The 6-foot-4, 300-pounder is likely going to end up as one of the nation's best in 2020. Tucker played on the same team as 2018 Notre Dame offeree Cade Mays and 2018 receiver Dashon Bussell this fall. Tucker holds offers from Alabama, LSU, Mississippi State, Ole Miss and Tennessee.

Tracking the Trail: Spring Evaluation Period
Notre Dame coaches hit the road starting on Monday (April 24) as part of the Spring Evaluation Period. We will comprise a list of who they visited. I think a running will be more organized versus daily so you can see the priority (offers/prospects) a little easier. 2017 SigneesWR Michael Young 2018 CommitsRB Markese Stepp WR Braden Lenzy DL Jayson Ademilola DL Justin Ademilola DB Derrik Allen 2018 OffersRB Master Teague III RB Lavonte Valentine WR Kamryn BabbWR Chase Cota WR Bryson Jackson WR Lawrence Keys III WR L'Christian Smith WR Amon-Ra St. BrownTE Pat Freiermuth TE Mustapha Muhammad TE George Takacs OL Ryan Hayes DT Ja'mion Franklin DE Thomas Booker DE Daniel Carson DE Richard Jibunor DE Jayson Oweh DE Tyreke Smith LB Brian Asamoah LB Bo Calvert LB Dallas GantDB Shayne Simon DB Houston Griffith DB D'Angelo Mckenzie CB DJ Johnson CB Donte Burton ATH Joe Wilkins Jr. 2018 Prospects WR Daniel Arias WR Cam Jones WR Cameron Brown TE Anthony Torres TE Tommy Tremble OL Jacob Isaia DL Isaiah Mullens CB Trey Morrison CB Taj Ward DB Michael Dowell DB Javon Terry ATH Dashon Bussell 2019 OffersQB JT Daniels QB Grant Gunnell QB Bo Nix DE Jason Bargy DT Jacob Lacey DE Kayvon Thibodeaux LB Nana Osafo-Mensah CB DJ Turner II DB Litchfield Ajavon DB Brian Williams ATH Joshua Calvert ATH Bru McCoy 2019 Prospects QB/ATH Luke McCaffrey QB Ty Evans RB John Emery Jr. RB Rahmir Johnson WR Craig Young WR Quinton Torbor DL Rodas Johnson CB Jalen Perry ATH Jashon Watkins
Notre Dame Checking on In-State Prospects on Monday
Mike Elston made his away around Indiana to check on some of the states top prospects.
The Opening Regionals: Cleveland
Just a heads up, Jamie and I will be in Cleveland tomorrow. The main event will be 2018 five-star Notre Dame quarterback commit Phil Jurkovec as he will look to qualify for the Elite 11. It's also a loaded field with some of Notre Dame's top prospects. WR L'Christian Smith, OL Jackson Carman, DE Tyreke Smith, LB Brian Asamoah, LB Dallas Gant, and Notre Dame LB commit Bo Bauer will be working out from the 2018 class. In 2019, WR Mershawn Rice, OL Trevor Keegan, OL/DL Isaiah Gibson, DT Jowon Briggs (offer), DT Jacob Lacey (offer), DE Zach Harrison (offer), and 2019 CB Moses Douglass. I am pretty excited to see Harrison go against some of top offensive lineman to see where he is in his development. The athleticism is clearly there, but I look forward to hearing about here Jamie thinks about his hands and technique. Briggs and Lacey could end up being the future of the interior of the Notre Dame defensive line, so it will be interesting to see exactly how they stack up against each other. Other matchups of interest would be Carman vs Smith, Ohio State RB commit Jaelen Gill going up against Bauer, Asamoah, and Gant.Some other names we will be watching: 2018 DE Isaiah Mullens, 2018 LB Jesse Luketa, and 2018 ATH Dashon Bussell.
