'22 IA TE Eli Raridon (Notre Dame Signee)

[rtrn2glory]

Have we thrown that slot fade to him at all this year?

 

[Dale]

After going 8 games without breaking a tackle, he broke 3 against Pitt. Expecting to end the TD drought next week.

Partly since I think the coaches are dying to get him one.

 

[allenm5333]

No, though he could petition. I believe he only played in 5 games his freshman year?

Believe that’s the case and then he got hurt. Im curious if the 5 to play 5 rule passes and he gets another year

 

[slick7410]

There’s no chance he’d get a foot down in play on any type of fade pass.

 

[Free Manera]

He needs to spend all week doing sobriety tests so he can do better running straight down the sideline. The boy was running like he was trying to dodge raindrops down there.

JB on II said it likely wouldn’t be something until the 2027 season I believe.

 

[GoldenToTheGrave]

I dunno why we dont just throw 3 fades to him or fields.

OK Charlie Weis (but that's probably a good idea).

 

[Old Man Mike]

For as good as Raridon is, I'm utterly boggled by his whole-body-spatial unawareness during the simple act of running. Had it been one time, well, OK. But .... reminds me of the goof-headed Bball players who step out of bounds when catching or dribbling. (I was a mediocre player compared to a college quality player, but I never randomly stepped out of bounds. Where the hell are these guys' spatial awareness? Zero peripheral vision? Just brain undisciplined? )

Baby steps. Before last week he only had like 5 YAC all year. He probably quadrupled his YAC in one game.

Next step, teaching him what that white paint means…

 

[Old Man Mike]

HA!

 

[NDPhilly]

Very cool

 

[KMac151993]

Notre Dame Man.

 

[BeatSC]

Shit bummer, didn’t know he’s run out of time. He’s been getting better every week.

 

[NDPhilly]

From ND's website - He really should petition for another year if he wants to come back. 5 games and No catches.

That being said, i see some 3rd and 4th round grades for him now for this spring.

Also remember that he’s married. He may simply want to move on to the next chapter of life.

His wife will only nag him for more shit if he gets a NFL contract. She'll be just fine with NIL money for another year.

Especially because that injury basically took out half of his next season as well.

 

[NDFAN2008]

I mean coming back could be a big win win for him NIL and get a masters plus ND should be a top 3 team he might even be TE 1

 

[Dale]

He’s probably a Day 3 pick, definitely would come back if he could

Sounds like you’re projecting

I’d let the couple be since you know nothing about them

Relax Dr Phil.

 

[NDBoiler]

Relax bed wetter

FIFY

 

[Rocketman84]

He would definitely be TE1, the key would be staying injury free and trying to go from a 4th-5th Rd pick up to a 3rd Rd

It's worth wondering if they are exploring an extra year for Onye, are they exploring an additional year for Raridon?

Onye’s situation is different he’s in his fifth year now. Wants to use mental health as an injury year.

 

[T-Boone]

Both/either would be great to have back.

 

[Junkhead]

Very cool

He's tall enough to play basketball at ND too!

 

[NDFAN2008]

Don't think there is any chance he is back next year

 

[Dizzyphil]

I love Raridon, but he's not in the Top 25 TE's for 2026 draft...

 

[NDMatt91]

Isn't he out of eligibility?
