Right out of the shoot in the new year many of us get a chance to watch some of the future stars of college football in live game-action for the first time as high school all-star games begin taking place.

Saturday will bring us the All-American Game (formerly sponsored by the US Army) that will feature four future Golden Domers.

Thursday night however offers a chance to watch a couple future members of the Notre Dame offense as they’ll be on display in the 2020 Under Armour All-American Game.

Chris Tyree, the No. 1 rated all-purpose back in the nation according to 247Sports will serve as a captain for the “Savage” team.  Tyree was the first-runner-up in the fastest man competition at practices this week.

The final Notre Dame signee who is also a savage, at least on Thursday night is Alex Peitsch who has been graded by some as the best high school long-snapper in the country this past fall.

Watch: Chris Tyree Takes Second Place in Under Armour Fastest Man Competition

You don’t win football games by lining up and running 40 yards straight ahead time after time but in a competition this is promising for a player who has plenty of film that shows he’s more than just a sprinter in shoulder pads.

If you’ve heard Brian Kelly in recent days he’s mentioned he believes Notre Dame can take another step still in terms of their recruiting.  He pretty much has stated that they’re in a really good place but can still take it a step further.

One place where they improved recruiting this most recent class was at the running back position where they were able to sign Chris Tyree of Chester, Virginia, the highest rated running back to choose Notre Dame during Kelly’s tenure.

Tyree is participating in the Under Armour All-American Game this Thursday in Orlando where he was selected to be a game captain.

In preparation for Thursday’s event practices have been taking place in Orlando as day two (Monday, 12/30) brought about the annual fastest man competition.

Tyree didn’t disappoint, finishing second by a nose to Arian Smith, a future Georgia Bulldog.

Rivals Recruiting Director Mike Farrell went as far to call Tyree an immediate impact for Notre Dame.

Practices continue Tuesday before Thursday’s game at the same venue Notre Dame just got done beating Iowa State in.
