Notre Dame landed their 12th commitment to the 2021 recruiting class on Monday as son of former NFL offensive tackle John, Joe Alt committed to the Fighting Irish.
Alt is the third offensive lineman to join the class as standout tackle Blake Fisher did so long ago and guard Pat Coogan made his commitment just a few short months ago.
So what is Notre Dame getting in Alt?
Well, first thing you should know is that the 6-7, 257 pounder out of Minneapolis plays tight end in high school and will transition to tackle at Notre Dame.
That doesn’t mean you can’t watch some of his best plays through his junior year of high school however. If you want to see the standout, you can watch his highlights from his seventh through tenth games of last football season here.
Once you watch you’ll see that the move to offensive line should be pretty natural as Alt more than embraces the blocking part of the tight end position.
Thanks for checking it out and keep it locked to Fighting Irish Wire for everything Notre Dame athletics.
