Ian Premer: Notre Dame's Next Big Tight End | Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football News
Description
Notre Dame just landed the top recruiting class for 2026, and the star of the show is 6’6”, 240-pound tight end Ian Premer from Great Bend, Kansas. Despite not enrolling early, Premer’s hype is off the charts—he’s being compared to Tyler Eifert for his ability to dominate matchups with his size, speed, and versatility. The coaching staff plans to deploy him in unconventional ways, creating mismatches across the field. Summer is critical for him to build strength and master the playbook, with fall camp his chance to prove he can earn snaps right away. Expect him to see meaningful playing time this season, possibly even lining up wide, with a floor similar to Alize Mack’s freshman year. If he stays healthy and picks up the offense quickly, Premer could surprise everyone—and maybe even force his way into the starting lineup.
