Notre Dame worked quietly to pull off a flip in the 2024 class. There was no announcement of an offer. No commitment ceremony. Just a good old-fashioned flip.
On Friday afternoon, Salinas (Calif.) Palma wide receiver Logan Saldate announced that he was switching his commitment from Oregon State to Notre Dame.
The Irish had three receiver commits in the 2024 class, but Warner Robins (Ga.) High’s Isiah Canion flipped to Georgia Tech a few weeks ago. Notre Dame evaluated what to do next, and it landed on pursuing Saldate.

Newest CFP rankings are out
The 5-11, 185-pounder is ranked as the nation’s No. 988 overall prospect and No. 143 wide receiver per the On3 Industry Ranking. While he’s not rated highly — at least for now — he did hold offers from Arizona, California, Oklahoma State, Washington and Washington State.
“I’ll play slot at Notre Dame,” Saldate told Blue & Gold. “They (the Irish coaches) know what they’re getting in me, but I’m excited to show them even more of what I’m capable of.”
And Saldate is looking to show the Irish faithful that he’s far more than what his ranking suggests as well.
“You guys are going to see; I’m a hidden gem,” he said. “They’ll see when I’m on campus, and I’ll show them what I’ve got.”
Saldate becomes the Irish’s third receiver commit in the 2024 class, joining Glen Ellyn (Ill.) Glenbard South’s Cam Williams and Charlotte (N.C.) Christian’s Micah Gilbert. Notre Dame is now at 21 verbals for the 2024 cycle.
