Notre Dame Football Recruiting: Irish flip 3-Star WR Logan Saldate from Oregon State

ND gets a commitment from exciting California athlete

On Friday the Notre Dame Fighting Irish flipped the commitment of 3-Star wide receiver Logan Saldate from the Oregon State Beavers. The 5’11 185 pounder from Salinas, California, held offers from the Arizona Wildcats, Washington Huskies, Oklahoma State Cowboys, and others before committing to the Beavers at the end of May.

The Irish have been searching for another commitment at WR since the decommitment of Isiah Cannion, and only started to turn the heat up on Saldate very recently.

Saldate is now the 21st commitment of Notre Dame’s 2024 football recruiting class. The Irish currently have the #8 class in the country according to the 247 Team Composite Rankings.

What feels strange, is that with all of the offers, time, and money spent on recruiting the state of California... Saldate is the lone representative of that state in this class.

If you’re just unimpressed because of the number of stars attached to his name, I understand how you feel. My advice is to watch his film and think about the slot position at Notre Dame. His quickness and athleticism (pretty good 100-meter times and long jump measurements in track and field) are definitely traits needed at the position.

FIST PUMPS UP FOR LOGAN!
