Editor’s note: Lake Mary 2026 quarterback Noah Grubbs wrote the following first-person story for the USA Today Network to explain why he committed to Notre Dame.
The 6-foot-4 ½, 195-pound Grubbs is rated a four-star recruit and the No. 9 quarterback in the nation on On3’s Industry Rankings.
Grubbs rewrote Lake Mary’s record books in 2023 when he completed 208 of 354 passes (59% completion percentage) for 3,670 yards and 49 touchdowns and rushed for four touchdowns in 12 games. He now holds seven school records at Lake Mary. Grubbs had two 500-yard passing games in 2023, including a 528-yard, eight-touchdown performance against Dr. Phillips in the season opener. The eight touchdown passes also set a new school record.

What random thing was going to put another college above Notre Dame?

I love the atmosphere there, the locker room, being around the facilities. You can just tell that this place is on the rise.
I love the tradition about Notre…
