Kyren Williams

Just predicted Notre Dame to land 2020 four-star Destrehan (La.) running back Kyle Edwards after he announced he received an offer from the Irish on Tuesday afternoon. Now, I do think there work to be done on both ends for this to happen but I believe Notre Dame is the offer he wanted and wanted it for a reason. Like I said, it's not over by any means but if he was choosing today, Notre Dame would likely be the choice. Edwards is a sharp and intelligent kid, who had wanted to visit South Bend for over a year. He had extremely high expectations heading into the visit and Notre Dame surpassed those by a large margin, His mother was also equally impressed so Notre Dame is in great shape here. In terms of the running back picture as a whole, it was pretty clear Notre Dame was going to take two running backs after only taking Kyren Williams last year. Edwards would be the perfect running back for the other backs at the top of the board as Chris Tyree, JuTahn McClain, and Bijan Robinson are speed guys.Destrehan is the alma mater of Notre Dame receiver Michael Young. From talking to a few sources, I don't think the Edwards and Young family have had much interaction as Michael was a senior when Edwards was a freshman, but I'd expect that to change moving forward.
