They are looking at him in the same vein as Eifert. I think Eifert played around 250lb, while Irish. Don't know if he'll get taller, but he's probably going to put on another 10-15lbs. minimum.

A Memorable Night In South Bend for Father & Son Raridon (247sports.com)

Premium from Sinclair. A fun perspective as the the interviewee is ND alum and Eli's Father, Scott Raridon.

“Eli is six-six-and-a-half. And that's basically my height,” Scott said. “And that's what the Notre Dame staff measured him at...On that chart they have, he was six-six and four-tenths, I believe. And then they had him at six-six-and-a-quarter the second time. And his hands are 10 and three-quarters (inches).

“(Bill Rees) is the guy who measures that. And he came up to me afterwards, and he's like, ‘Eli would have the biggest hands on the team right now if he was on the team.

Still don’t see 21 better TEs than Raridon. His On3 Consensus is now up to #7 TE, #182 nationally.

He's not the #22 TE, that's a typo. Looks like the #5 TE based on a quick scroll through the top 250.

the TE position at ND is in really good shape going forward even if michael mayer leaves after his junior year.

He's a unique athlete. I know we stress about WR's and rightfully so, we could be quite thin at the position in '23 but as far as possible playmakers go this class will have some. Price, Raridon, and Merriweather are guys that I could see being elite collegiate players at their positions.

I wonder if they start him out at receiver his first year because of our low numbers and then move him in-line after he's had a year with Balis.
