Notre Dame is one of three finalists for top 2026 Ohio tight end Preston Fryzel
Preston Fryzel has narrowed his list down to three schools, and Notre Dame is one of them.
The Class of 2026 tight end is down to the Fighting Irish, Iowa and Miami, per On3.com. He is reportedly set to announce his commitment June 23.
Fryzel made an official visit to South Bend last weekend for the second time since receiving a scholarship offer from the Fighting Irish May 21. The Central Catholic (Toledo, OH) product had previously visited ND unofficially a few weeks ago.
The 6-foot-4, 220-pounder earned all-state honorable mention from the Ohio Prep Sports Media Association last season after hauling in 43 catches for 807 yards and 10 touchdowns in 16 games.
Tight end has been a focus on the recruiting trail for the Irish, as Fryzel is one of four still on their board. Waukee (Waukee, IA) four-star product Evan Jacobson, Great Bend (Great Bend, KS) four-star Ian Premer and Lexington (Mansfield, OH) four-star Brayden Fogle are also in the mix.

5-star QB Ryder Lyons sets commitment date with Oregon Football among favorites
5-star QB Ryder Lyons sets commitment date with Oregon Football among favorites BREAKING: Five-Star QB Ryder Lyons will announce his Commitment on June 24th, he tells me for @on3recruits He's the Top Uncommitted QB in the 2026 Classhttps:// — Hayes Fawcett (@Hayesfawcett3) June 19, 2025 The following week is going to be a busy one for Oregon Duck fans who follow high school recruiting. There are some high-profile prospects for whom the Ducks are in a good position to come off the board, and on Wednesday night, one of the most impactful players announced that he's joining the group set to announce his commitment in the coming days. That player is 5-star quarterback Ryder Lyons, who is rated by 247Sports as the No. 13 player and No. 4 QB in the 2026 class. On Wednesday, Lyons announced that he will officially make his commitment on Tuesday, June 24, following his official visit to the BYU Cougars. Lyons took his visit to Oregon last week, and with his commitment reportedly coming down to the Ducks and Cougars, it makes sense that he wants to make his decision after this weekend. While Oregon is seen as a strong contender to land Lyons, based on their track record of developing QBs, the offensive system, and his relationship with offensive coordinator Will Stein, BYU is a huge threat here. Several reports show that the Cougars have offered a massive NIL deal for Lyons, who has strong ties to the morman community and is expected to take an LDS mission out of high school, delaying his freshman year until 2027. Ultimately, it's likely going to come down to which matters more for Lyons; a huge lump sum of money, or the opportunity to play for and be developed by the Ducks. Ultimately, we will find out next week where the 5-star is going to end up.

Shedeur Sanders cited for speeding in Cleveland after Browns' minicamp
Shedeur Sanders cited for speeding in Cleveland after Browns' minicamp Shedeur Sanders has had expectations of excellence placed on him since he was young, but he may have more eyes on him now than he ever did before. However, after his historic draft slide, Sanders has done nothing but impress fans, coaches, and teammates up to this point. That's why it's unfortunate to see that Sanders' first mistake as Brown happened earlier this week. The rookie quarterback was pulled over and given a citation for driving 101 mph in a 60 mph zone in Cleveland early Tuesday morning. Fox 8 Cleveland broke the news and released a video of the incident, where Sanders remained calm and fully cooperated with the officers. During a back-and-forth, the two officers involved discussed Sanders' speed and his connection to his father, Deion Sanders. "Has he been cool with you?" one officer asks the other about Sanders' cooperation, to which the primary officer involved responds, "Yeah, he's been real cool." Sanders was not cited for driving under the influence, and the rest of the stop played out as usual. Due to the extreme level that Sanders was found to be over the speed limit, he faces a $250 fine, or he can choose to fight it in court. There is almost no doubt that Sanders, who admitted to his mistake in the video, will quickly pay the fine and put this incident behind him so he can refocus on football. Sanders is competing in a loaded Browns quarterback room filled with veterans Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett and fellow rookie Dillion Gabriel.
