2026 Master Thread

[Irish du Nord]

He's been discussed before as an ND dreamer. Might be a quick commit if he has the opportunity

Super athlete, raw skill set. I think it’s his second year of football or something. Coaches got an eval at Irish Invasion last summer

 

[CanadalovesND]

New TE offer. Big body with offers from Florida, Ole Miss, and A&M.

Fire Up a New Profile BobbyMac.

Don’t be surprised if you guys see some predictions coming in for him in the coming days and weeks.

Wiltfong’s article today states that it’s an offer he’s been waiting on… “I’m stoked!”

Delayed his commitment announcement after ND, Ohio State, LSU and Miami offered last week.

Says Bama still leads and will announce "soon".

[IAIrish]

A guy to look at. Former Maryland commit, visiting Stanford, NC State, South Carolina, and WVU. PSU also offered. Won DL MVP at UA Orlando. Grubbs was QB MVP fwiw.

He’s Mandarin? Foreign language box checked.

On3 new 2026 rankings came out. Notable movers:

Felix Ojo - #10 overall
Khary Adams - #30 overall
Ebenezer - #36 overall
Joey O’Brien - #85 overall
Gregory Patrick - #93 overall
Simeon Caldwell - #95 overall

 

[NDPhilly]

On3 having Grubbs as a 3 star is just absolutely insane lmao

 

[notredomer23]

I don't think On3 has some type of conspiracy against ND QBs, I just think they're genuinely awful at ranking the position overall. Grubbs isn't a Carr level prospect, but when the other 3 rankings have him between 8 and 11, and he just won QB MVP at a camp, your outlier rankings are probably bunk.

I would guess that their argument is "upside" and the fact that he's not a super mobile guy and doesnt have a rocket arm result in him being a 3 star despite his other obvious strengths.

He's appropriately ranked around ~125-150 to me.

 

[NDFAN2008]

Grubbs just won MVP at an event so you can't convince we otherwise he is a high 4 star

 

[Irishdwarte]

I’m not following. He won MVP so you can’t be convinced he is or isn’t a high four star?

High 3 star, be thankful for what the lord provides us

Unranked on 247 but low 4 star on On3. Offers from PSU and Michigan among power programs.

We didn’t make his top 6 in January but assume that will change.

Could be. But Singer is saying that the kid is very pumped up by the offer. You never know.

 

[Irish du Nord]

Last safety with Xavier worked out well

Committed to Oregon

A crystal ball within a crystal ball if you will. Kind of like Inception.
