Notre Dame 99-to-0: No. 75 Sullivan Absher, incoming freshman offensive lineman

Listed measurements: 6-foot-7, 305 pounds 2023-24 year, eligibility: An incoming freshman, Absher has all four seasons of eligibility remaining. Depth Chart: Despite his frame suggesting a future at tackle, the Notre Dame coaching staff will need some time watching Absher on the practice field to figure out where to pencil him onto the depth chart. Recruiting: Absher committed to the Irish in May of 2022, seven months before the consensus four-star prospect could sign his National Letter of Intent. The No. 29 tackle in the class, per rivals.com, he spurned Clemson and North Carolina State as his finalists , notable for a North Carolina native.

WHAT WAS SAID WHEN ABSHER SIGNED IN DECEMBER “Absher should be a tackle in the future if for no other reason than it is hard to fathom a 6-foot-7 frame folding itself up along the interior presnap. …

“Absher’s quickness belies his weight. Even if that 285-pound listing is inflated, he moves better than should be expected from such a big man. That quickness combined with his flexibility and length may make Absher an ideal offensive tackle.”

NAME, IMAGE, LIKENESS Absher’s disposition would be best described as walking enthusiasm, particularly when he sees a camera.

QUOTES Looking at Absher, next to classmate Sam Pendleton on the left, in that above photo underscores some comments from former Irish offensive coordinator Tommy Rees when the pair, along with three other offensive linemen, signed with Notre Dame in December.

“You look at the mental makeup of these five and what they’re about, and they fall right in line with what we’re trying to build as a culture in that room,” Rees said.
