'22 IA TE Eli Raridon (Notre Dame Signee)

[Riddickulous]

I understand being excited for new players, but there's a lot of talent in front of him.
It will be a major accomplishment just to get on the field let alone put up big numbers.

Currently the only healthy player ahead of him to fight for the non-Mayer reps is Bauman.

I don’t think there’s a tight end on their roster, Mayer included, that has Raridon’s athletic ability and ball skills.

 

[PutuporShutup]

I want him to be as good as that Georgia tight end this year.
That combined with Mayer would be all right?
Bar too high?

No chance stats wise as Mayer will be focal

Agree before injury, need to see him move in game to re confirm

 

[rtrn2glory]

As thin as the wr depth is it's possible he'll get time based on that alone

 

[GATTACA!]

yeah he ready

Where is Koon when we need him?

 

[Dale]

 

[ndinoxford]

I hope Rees puts him on the field with Mayer in Columbus..

 

[GrangerIrish24]

In the distance, you hear the sound of Koons heartbeat slowly rising.

Can one of you meme guru's make a "that damned smile" meme but make it "that damned number" instead? Something about ND TE's wearing 9 makes me feel confident he's going to kick ass.

When I buy a jersey I always get #9

 

[FightingIrishLover7]

#18 ripping that pass

 

[IRISHMAN]

could raridon really get playing time this year, didn't he blow his knee out last winter playing basketball?

Did you watch the video?
He's playing full contact and no brace...

no i havent seen any video of him in camp yet, just surprised he came back from his injury as fast as he did.

 

[dankgesang]

I do not believe there is any level of hype so high as to be irresponsible regarding this dude. Absolute freak, 8 days a week.

Wasn't Zibby 9?

 

[notredomer23]

Wasn't Zibby 9?

Zibby, Kyle Rudolph, Louis Nix for a little, Robby Toma are a couple that come to mind in recent history.

Thinking more, Jaylon Smith, Daelin Hayes too.

dont for get about jeff burris.

 

[Whiskeyjack]

Wasn't Zibby 9?

Yes. The jersey I bought as an undergrad (which I still wear on game days) bears #9 for that reason.

My man!!!!!!! He’s my Notre Dame man.

Burris for me, bought as a kid at Hammes.

 

[tko]

Hayes was so good dropping in coverage.

 

[dublinirish]

Watch him on the left side finishing his block

 

[IRISHDODGER]

I noticed #9 all game. Seemed to really add to the run game.

I could argue that he's more eager to block than Mayer.
Maybe that's his nature. Maybe he knows it helps him get on the field?
Regardless, picturing his future at ND is making me really really excited.

 

[Crazy Balki]

Raridon is proving he needs to be more a part of the offense moving forward. We knew he was going to be a quality receiving weapon, but now he's showing to be a good in-line blocker. More reps for him plz.
