Notre Dame has landed a major recruit for its 2026 class, securing a commitment from Noah Grubbs, a highly-touted 4-star quarterback from Lake Mary, Florida. Grubbs, who is considered one of the top-rated quarterbacks in the country for his class, chose the Fighting Irish over several other prestigious programs.
Standing at an impressive 6 foot 4 inches and weighing 188 pounds, Grubbs has made a name for himself with his athletic prowess and exceptional skill set. As a three-year starter, he demonstrated his leadership and talent on the field, leading his team to a 10-2 record during his sophomore season. His remarkable performance in 2023, where he passed for 3,677 yards and 49 touchdowns, has solidified his reputation as a top quarterback prospect.
Grubbs is an athletic pocket passer with clean mechanics, a rare combination that makes him a standout player. His big arm allows him to make all the necessary throws across the route tree, showcasing his arm talent and accuracy. His ability to read defenses and make quick decisions under pressure has caught the attention of many top-tier college programs. The recruitment battle for Grubbs was intense, with Notre Dame coming out on top against other notable programs such as Miami, Colorado, Florida, Michigan, and Ohio State. His decision to join the Fighting Irish is a significant win for Notre Dame’s coaching staff and a promising addition to their future roster.
