It seems as if the Notre Dame coaching staff has turned their attention to the 2022 recruiting class, as they have been very busy with prospects on that side of the ball. On Monday, Brian Kelly and his staff offered two quarterbacks in this class and this morning after a talk with offensive line coach Jeff Quinn, an offer went out to Massachusetts’s jumbo athlete Ty Chan.
After a great talk with @CoachJeffQuinn, i’m excited to announce that i have received an offer from The University of Notre Dame, thank you to all the coaches on the staff for such a great opportunity! #GoIrish @LASpartansFB @BrianDohn247 @RivalsFriedman pic.twitter.com/2WiXdg5H6R

Chan has a fantastic frame, standing 6-foot-5-inches and weighing 265-pounds, with his versatility being a huge plus. What’s impressive is that Chan looks small and will be able to add more weight while keeping his athleticism. When you recruit a player like Chan, you get him on campus and figure out what position he plays later . With coach Quinn leading the charge on his recruitment, look for Chan to start on the offensive side of the line if he become’s part of the Notre Dame family.

Chan had offers from Nebraska and Penn State prior to getting the Irish offer this morning. Although the state of Massachusetts isn’t a football hotbed, they still produce a decent amount of talent, freshman wide receiver Jay Brunelle hails from the state. Look for Chan’s recruitment to heat up in the coming months.
Right now, Notre Dame has two commits in the ’22 class, instate offensive tackle Joey Tanona and Georgia tight end Jack Nickel. The two of them give the Irish at top 10 class, 8th overall by the 247Sports composite, at this early juncture in the 2022 recruiting cycle.
