For the first time last year, Notre Dame football held the type of summer camp that many other premier programs have been holding for a while now - an event dubbed Irish Invasion by the staff, as much geared towards evaluation and relationship building as actual camp work. The camp paid immediate dividends in the 2015 recruiting cycle, solidifying relationships with then-commits Jalen Guyton, Tristen Hoge, Jerry Tillery, Trevor Ruhland, Shaun Crawford, Elijah Taylor, Brandon Tiassum, Micah Dew-Treadway, and Nicco Fertitta, and building significant inroads with eventual signees Dexter Williams, Josh Adams, and Te'Von Coney.
So that's great.
