Notre Dame landed a pair of elite tight end recruits when the program received commitments from Ian Premer and Preston Fryzel, two key offensive components in its Class of 2026.
The Fighting Irish were also once considered leaders for the pledge of Waukee (Waukee, IA) tight end Evan Jacobson. But with two at the position already in the fold, tight end is seemingly taken care of in this class, which is one reason recruiting expert Steve Wiltfong gave an expert prediction for Jacobson to land with Texas A&M.
Jacobson, who is also a very good basketball player like his father, who played hoops at Nebraska and Iowa State, is the second-ranked player in the state of Iowa, per the 247Sports Composite Rankings.
Jacobson’s offer list became even longer throughout this offseason, and he now has well over 30. Among the more notable power programs that have offered him besides the Irish are Ohio State, Penn State, LSU and A&M.
One thing is clear: no matter where Jacobson lands, Irish fans have to be ecstatic about the future with Premer and Fryzel in the fold.
