Every year on St. Patrick's Day, Notre Dame football sends out a flood of “Pot of Gold Day” offers.
This is a big day for the Irish staff as they reach out to multiple recruits from different classes to let them know that they are prospects that Notre Dame wants. These offers have a slightly different feel, especially considering they're such a big deal for new hires.
See which players were offered scholarships below. However, since there were so many players, some may have slipped through the cracks, but we will update them as soon as we think of them.
(Note: All recruiting rankings are based on 247Sports' composite rankings.)
2026 Nevada linebacker Kenneth Goodwin
Goodwin, who is currently unranked, is 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighs 205 pounds.
2026 California Wide Receiver Madden Williams
Some offers have been renewed, like Williams, who was first offered last May. The 6-foot, 2-inch, 185-pound receiver is currently unranked.
2026 North Carolina wide receiver Brody Keefe
At 6-foot-3 and 185 pounds, Keefe looks like a big-time receiver, even if he's currently unranked.
2026 Arkansas linebacker Jacoa Smith
This is Smith's second offer, with the Irish offering a highly interested 6-foot-1, 180-pound linebacker. Like the rest of the class, he is currently unranked.
2026 Georgia running back Jonas Walton
Walton is one of the top players in the class, ranking as the No. 46 prospect overall in the class.
2026 Florida Defensive Lineman Trenton Henderson
Although he's a bit on the lighter side at 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds, the Irish believe Henderson, who is currently unranked, can grow into his own.
2026 Texas running back Racine Guillory
Even though he's committed to Texas, the Irishman is still chasing the 5-foot-10, 180-pound back.
2026 Georgia defensive back Jontavious Wyman
Wyman, a huge corner who stands 6-foot-2 and weighs 175 pounds, is currently not ranked.
2026 Florida State Athlete DJ Williams
Williams was lucky today, as the 6-foot, 1-inch, 160-pounder received an offer from the Irish.
2026 Virginia offensive tackle Darius Gray
Although not the typical size for a tackle at 6-foot-3 and 290 pounds, the unranked Gray could slide inside later.
2026 Florida Safety Xavier Lellis
The 5-foot, 10-inch, 185-pound Floridian is currently unranked.
2026 Alabama linebacker Anthony Jones
The nation's top linebacker and No. 6 overall prospect currently holds an offer from Notre Dame.
2026 Florida cornerback Kusani Giles
Giles, who stands 6 feet tall and weighs 175 pounds, is currently not ranked by any major service.
2026 Texas Wide Receiver Jalen Pyle
The 6-foot-1, 178-pound Pyle isn't ranked, but he should be soon.
