For the fourth year in a row, Notre Dame football is celebrating St. Patrick's Day with a recruiting offer spree.

This year, the Irish are using the holiday festivities to start a major push in the 2026 recruiting class.

Notre Dame is expected to extend close to 100 new scholarship offers in the 2026 class and connect with many of the previously offered 2026 recruits to make sure they know they're a priority for the Irish.

Three-star WR Jerome Bettis Jr. added more cause for celebration Sunday morning when he committed to the Irish. He became the eighth commitment in Notre Dame's current 2025 class that heard from the Irish on St. Patrick's Day last year.
