6'7" and 332 lbs!! Tillery is HUGE. 247 has him as the 5th best tackle in his class. He grew up a Notre Dame fan and even attended the 1997 bowl game. Large get in more way than one.

 

Welcome to Notre Dame Jerry Tillery!!!

BK really seems motivated to recruit a huge OL like Bama had. He has been doing that even before last season.

 

Bk is building a road grading OL. They are going to average 6'7 310 or so I suspect.

 

Guys like Bryant, Folston and Hood have to love it.

 

Size like that is good for either a running game or a passing game isn't it? I used to think it meant the team was committing to the running game but I do not think that is right.

 

I do like the idea of a two TE offense to go with a huge OL. I bet our RBs do as well.

NICE! Big kid who will no doubt convert some of that baby fat into hard muscle under Longo.

Our offensive line is going to be OMG good for the next 5 years. The 2-deep will be stocked. IMHO most of the backups are likely to be better than many of our starters from the last few years.

Now, can we keep LSU and A&M from poaching this kid? Long time before his LOI day (if that even means anything anymore).

Yep, Im gonna pump the brakes since this kid has yet to receive his elite SEC offers. Once Bama and LSU come knocking, we will see what his commitment is worth....

 

Til then, welcome aboard....

I remember that independence bowl, we beat lsu in the regular season and they beat us in the bowl. Then I realized that was 16 years ago. And this kid is class of 2015.

 

Either way, welcome! He's pretty much one of us, except he'll be suiting up one day.

I saw a quote that he knew he wanted to committ once he stepped into the Basilica. Awesome.

 

He's staying Irish.

That is great if true. Just read his commitment article on II. From his comments, he sounds like a great kid who will, undoubtedly, remain Irish.
