There is a certain type of athlete that Notre Dame football looks for, and its not always about what they see on the gridiron.
There are multiple current, former, and future Irish stars that have played two-sports in South Bend, and there could be another one the way in the 2027 class. Kentucky wide receiver Tyler Fryman was offered a scholarship on Monday evening, as the 6-foot, 1-inch and 180-pounder is currently committed to Louisville baseball.
Notre Dame did the same last cycle, when it flipped Vanderbilt baseball commit Brandon Logan, and they are trying for the same result in the 2027 one. Fryman isn’t ranked at the moment, but does have a few football offers aside from the Irish in Toledo, Miami (OH), and of course the Cardinal.
Fryman most likely will try and play both sports in college, as he’s a shortstop and outfielder in baseball and a wide receiver or safety in football. Notre Dame likes elite dual-sport athletes, and the Kentucky native fits that mold.
