Checking in on the 2023 TE Class

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2023 Tight End class is interesting. At the top, we have a few great Power-5 guys that have consistently proved themselves against the best High School talent. As you head down the class, we see many lesser-known recruits who have still signed to Division 1 programs due to their potential! This could be a great class that will produce in college, but time will tell! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='30328' first='Brennan' last='Parachek'] | Dexter | Michigan State Signee</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Paracheck is now a Spartan DAWG! He's been the top TE in this class for quite some time, and he's played for one of the most quickly rising programs in the state. Dexter will miss him, and East Lansing will EMBRACE him! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/MSU_Football/status/1605541629703598080","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/MSU_Football/status/1605541629703598080 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='323539' first='Henry' last='Garrity'] | Brother Rice | Notre Dame Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Garrity to ND? Sounds like a perfect fit to me! He's been the best TE in the catholic league for a few seasons, and he's a perfect culture fit for The Fighting Irish. The Irish have a great TE heading into the draft in Borck Bowers, so let's hope Henry progresses in a similar fashion! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='407398' first='Nathan' last='VanTimmeren'] | GRCC | Central Michigan Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Catholic Central kids have an excellent track record in college, and I expect VanTimmeren to be great. He's a big TE with great potential and pass-catching ability. I expect him to bulk up a tad and truly become elite! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='409672' first='Rory' last='Callahan'] | Huron | Central Michigan Commit</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Quite honestly, this is an athlete I haven't followed too closely. Though his highlights showcase tenacity as a blocker and DE, as well as a solid pass catcher. CMU has a great class already, so It will be interesting to see where Callahan ends up on the depth chart!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='409668' first='Jaiden' last='Acker'] | Kenowa Hills | UnCommitted</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Despite six great offers from GVSU, Wayne State, Army, and others, Acker remains uncommitted. Of course, Kenowa Hils isn't in the limelight very often, but Acker is indeed an exceptional athlete. I can tell that he's taking his time, and I can't wait to see where he ends up deciding to go! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
