Offensive Tackle – Nicholas Petit-Frere – Berkley Prep – Tampa, Florida

Nicholas Petit-Frere could add to an already impressive Notre Dame Offensive Line roster. He hails from Tampa, Florida and plays for Berkley Prep.

According to the 247Sports Composite, Petit-Frere ranks as the 42 best recruit nationally. Additionally, he ranks as the 4th best Offensive Tackle in the 2018 class.

He holds offers from 28 programs including Michigan, Notre Dame, Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Ohio State, Georgia, LSU, Miami (FL), Oklahoma, Penn State, Stanford, Texas and USC.

Notre Dame is battling Florida, Alabama, Michigan and Ohio State for his services. The majority of experts believe that the Gators will land him. However, with the recent struggles and coaching change in Gainesville may help the Irish coaching staff get Petit-Frere to move north.

Petit-Frere visited for Notre Dame’s win over USC. The atmosphere and the fact that Irish rushed for 377 yards and 5 touchdowns against the Trojans. Petit-Frere will also visit Michigan for their battle against Ohio State.
