This weekend could be very prosperous for Notre Dame football, as three of its top targets have set their commitment dates on back-to-back-to-back days.
Let’s take a look at who is making their college choice along with the Irish’s chances, starting with the first announcement on July 4th.
Texas wide receiver Kaydon Finley will make his pick between Texas, Texas A&M and the Irish. He’s one of the top prospects in the country, ranking as the No. 110 player according to the 247Sports Composite. This recruitment looks very promising for Notre Dame, as there are three crystal ball picks on 247Sports favoring the Irish.
The next scheduled player to commit is another receiver in Arizona’s Devin Fitzgerald on July 5th. The son of NFL legend Larry will pick one of four teams: Stanford, Clemson, UCLA or Notre Dame. At 6-foot, 2-inches and 205-pounds, the younger Fitzgerald is ranked as the No. 488 prospect by 247Sports. They also like the Irish’s chances, but not quite as confident with just one crystal ball pick for the Blue and Gold.
Lastly, Brayden Robinson, another receiver, will make his pick on July 6th. The Irish are battling Miami and Arizona for the nation’s No. 340 prospect in the 247Sports rankings. Like Fitzgerald, there is just one crystal ball and while it does favor Notre Dame, it’s not all that encouraging.
It’s hard to imagine that the Irish land all three, and while that is a possibility, they already have two other receivers committed in the 2026 class. Finley and Fitzgerald are at the top of my “want” list, but that’s just personal preference. It very well could be a big Fourth of July weekend for Notre Dame.
