Notre Dame Offers 2024 Defensive Linemen Jerod and Jacob Smith

Notre Dame offered a pair of 2024 defensive linemen today, and they live in the same house. Irish defensive line coach Al Washington offered Jerod Smith and Jacob Smith, twin brothers from Windsor (Conn.) The Loomis Chafee School.
After a great conversation with @CoachWash56 and @CoachAlGolden I was offered a scholarship to play at @NDFootball. 🍀🍀 AGTG @LoomisFootball @ISDUpdate @MohrRecruiting @RivalsFriedman @BrianDohn247 @DemetricDWarren @coachbanks9 pic.twitter.com/JPFHPQybOF

Jacob is a 6-4, 225-pound edge player that is ranked as the nation's No. 72 overall player according to 247 Sports. He is ranked as the second best player in the state of Connecticut. Jerod is a 6-3, 255-pound lineman that ranks as the No. 55 player in the country according to 247Sports, and he is the No. 1 player in the state.
Jacob is ranked higher by Rivals at No. 152, while Jerod is ranked No. 210.
The twins have almost identical offer lists, with scholarships from Alabama, Georgia, Penn State, Nebraska, Tennessee, Michigan State, Ole Miss, North Carolina, Iowa, Pittsburgh, Virginia, Kentucky, Louisville, Boston College, Syracuse and Rutgers.
Notre Dame has had a great deal of success with brothers the last decade. The Irish currently have twin brothers Jayson and Justin Ademilola as key members of the 2022 defensive line. Although they didn't play together at Notre Dame, brothers Romeo (2012-15) and Julian Okwara (2016-19) were also both standouts for the Irish and are current NFL players.
On the other side of the ball, Zack (2009-13) and Nick Martin (2011-15) were both multi-year starters at Notre Dame and both were drafted, with Zack going in round one and Nick going in round two.
