Brian Kelly and his staff are searching for the best talent on the offensive line, and although it hasn’t been all rosey in the last week, OT Landon Tengwall committing to PSU yesterday and OG Greg Crippen decommitting and then committing to rival Michigan, the staff is still hard at work.

Yesterday the staff offered Texas offensive tackle Matthew Wykoff, a 6’6” three-hundred-pound tackle. Wykoff has an impressive offer list, as the Irish have joined teams like Auburn, Texas, USC, PSU and others for the lineman’s services.
Earlier this month Wykoff released a top 7 list of school, clearly prior to receiving the offer from Notre Dame, so that is something to keep an eye on. There is a real chance the Irish can be players in Wykoff’s recruitment, as the massive tackle might want to leave the state to play collegiately.
There will be a lot of eyes on what direction the Irish will go after missing out on some of their top targets on the offensive line up to date. The offer to Wykoff show’s that the staff is not content with taking projects and wants players will big upside.
