Although there is an NCAA mandated recruiting dead period happening now until April 15th, that doesn’t stop recruits making their decisions as to where they will spend the next three to five years. Talented Iowa tight end Thomas Fidone released his final Top 6 schools and the Irish are squarely in the mix for one of the top players in the country.

Fidone’s final six teams include home state Iowa, Penn State, Michigan, Nebraska, and LSU along with Notre Dame. The 6’5 218-pound tight end looks like a wide receiver when he runs routes and his blocking will catch up to his pass-catching ability when he adds more good weight.

The Irish offered the talented tight end a scholarship at the end of January, and in that short time Brian Kelly has impressed Fidone enough to be included in this final 6 schools. Tight End U would surely take a commitment from this emerging star.
