'20 KY TE Michael Mayer (Notre Dame Signee)

[Some Irish Bloke]

I’m in the process bro. I have dropped 60lbs in the last four months and working on getting that chin. Lol

Let's go! Idk if there's anything many of us can do to match that hairline tho...

I'd be kind of shocked if he could run a 4.65 at his current weight. (265?) He's quicker than fast, to quote that guy.

I’d take him back on the broadcasts.

Also, Bowers isn’t even the best TE on his team.

I m still puzzled about Mayer in the NFL-that league is a different cat-if used correctly he could be a star-BUT as far as college this guy is hands down the best TE in the country and if he doesnt win the award it makes the award a joke-the guy blocks runs TE routes at the college level in a predigest manner-he is the best at his position in the country period. If you make from McAfee to all the other great TE thru the years move over you are the best Notre Dame has produced at the college level.

What workout do you do to get the chin you want? Just curious.

Robot or human?

Boils down to which team ends up drafting him. If he goes to a team like the Bengals with a good QB, he should be fine. If he goes to the Texans, he’s screwed.

Chin ups, duh!

 

[Cackalacky2.0]

Chin ups, duh!

I also chew on jerky all day. While I’m sitting at my desk I can get reps. #MaximumEffort

Grow a beard.

It's manly, sexy, and covers your pathetically weak chin.

 

[stpeteirish]

Mayer is the complete package. He really wasn't that good a blocker until this year. When determined that the way we would win is to RTDB he became much more important as a blocker and he really stepped it up. TE blocking is of supreme importance in an offense like ours.

I can’t. I got Joe Dirt genes. Lol. Facial hair comes in in patches haha.

Absolutely and he worked and coached himself into a great one-what a player and he gets that big body open while screening off the smaller guy-Notre Dame needs this award thru him for the future TE 's recruited. He's our horse.

Thank you, Michael! Legendary career!

 

[CanadalovesND]

Thank you, Michael! Legendary career!

Truly. It's near inconceivable that another TE will match what he's done. And he did it all in three years.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

The GOATE.

 

[notredomer23]

67 catches, 808 yards. 9 touchdowns.

Against ranked OSU, USC, and Clemson he had 17 catches for 174 yards and 3 touchdowns.

Brock Bowers against Oregon, Tennessee, and Miss State (their three biggest games) had 10 catches for 106 yards and 1 touchdown.

Legend

 

[CanadalovesND]

Logically, the Mackey Award is between Dalton Kincaid out of Utah, and Mayer.

For ESPNs sexual release, it's between Bowers and his hotter, sexier twin, Bowers.

 

[ulukinatme]

Absolute legend in a program with many incredible TEs. He takes the cake.

 

[Plankton]

Came in with a lot of hype, and outperformed it. What a terrific player who really grasped the nuances of the position in terms of route running, and really improved as a blocker. Another outstanding young man. Notre Dame was better for having Michael Mayer, and so will the NFL starting next year.

 

[FOTY977]

Made everyone around him better. Mark of a true leader. Will be sorely missed.

 

[NDPhilly]

Hope he can make it back to ND for a game next year so the fans can give him a standing O. He’s truly a Notre Dame legend.

 

[Irishnuke]

I think he could benefit greatly from another year at ND

 

[irishtrain]

he's the best I've seen here since watching Notre Dame since 1964-even more impact than Ken McAfee and that says a lot.

 

[bkess8]

Truly sad that we may have just seen the last game with this Legend in a ND uniform! Amazing career and bright NFL future ahead.

Thank you Michael!

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Best TE in America. Best ND TE ever.

That’s what I’ve been wondering as I wasn’t alive for McAfee. Just so impressive

Mackey Award finalists:

Bowers
LaPorta
Mayer

Offensive numbers:

Bowers: 46 rec., 645 yards, 5 TD; 6 rushes, 93 yards, 3 TD
LaPorta: 53 rec., 601 yards, 1 TD
Mayer: 67 rec., 809 yards, 9 TD

I can't say how much blocking the other two do, but if Mayer doesn't win this something is up.

Bowers is an H-back type. A+ athlete, but not a blocker at all. LaPorta is an in-line Y TE, and will be a good pro. Mayer is the best TE in college football. He should win the award hands down this year, but Bowers has the highlight plays that will wow voters. Sadly, I expect Bowers to win it.
