It's OFFICIAL. Clausen NOT GOOD. ACAMP & PADOMERNUT defend him

[midwestguy]

again in this thread.

Go ahead. It will be fun.

20 TDS 17 INTs against an easy schedule thus far. I expect it to get worse shortly.

 

[PADOMERNUT]

I have my name in the title of a thread, I must have made it big time!!!!!

There are so many people I would like to thank.....

 

[PADOMERNUT]

The only thing I will say is I have seen enough of Jimmy to realize that he has the tools to be a good quarterback. He is poorly coached and needs to work on decision making.

Let me ask you a question. What has Ron Powlous done to deserve to be a QB coach?

Don't get excited. You are only in the title because you were one of the two biggest ostriches in the Clausen chuck it up an pray thread.

 

[Shark Attack]

I definitely question the ability of our offensive coaches to develop player talent...

 

[irishmasochist]

ND sucks so bad, no one even bothers to broadcast their games on justin.tv .

 

[IrishAddiction]

I have said it before and will say it again, Crist will be a better QB at Notre Dame than Jimmy will ever be. Bigger, Faster, Stronger, and watching Jimmy play he might be a little smarter too. I know jimmy is young, but i just think Crist has more tools than jimmy, even at this point.

He hasnt taken a snap in college, how do you know that?

 

[IrishAddiction]

Intuition my friend....Intuition. Crist had to play against some amazing talent in California with a team that didnt have 7 or 8 of its starters go D1 on scholarships. Thats how good jimmys HS team was. Plus measureables and speed, and in game pressure, Crist is going to be the better player. Crist had games where he had to come back and win (which he did), Oaks Christian games were generally done by halftime, even in the playoffs.

Thank you, I was being sarcastic

 

[Fire Charlie]

He is having another bad game. But it's not like he's had all day back in the pocket. I'd like to see our OL actually try blocking a little more?

 

[mick2]

go look at bradys sophomore year.

 

[Junkhead]

go look at bradys sophomore year.

ND's offense has never been as pathetic as tonight. I think we won early in CW's tenure DESPITE Weis, not because of him.

 

[PADOMERNUT]

BQ was 15-30 for 105 yds in a 41-10 loss at USC to end the 2004 season.

Quinn also had 17 TDs and 10 INTs against a decent schedule as a sophomore.

Clausen went 20 TDs and 17 INTs against a garbage schedule.

Nothing. But then again he's a legacy...just like Flounder!

I hope I'm included.

JC may be good. BQ didn't hit the big time until his junior year. Besides, being behind the current O line and playcalling, I wouldn't expect Montana to fare well.

Joe? or Nate?

 

[dmort]

Claussen is overrated and the kids dont like him which might explain the poor blocking. Crist came to ND knowing that he can beat out Jimmy.

Jimmy cant handle pressure pure and simple.Weis should have benched him to make a point instead he made excuses for him and allowed Jimmy to bring him down.

 

[stonebreakerwasgod]

Joe? or Nate?

haha. Good call. Honestly, either one.

Young, he's like 30 years old.

 

[wahoo]

I think thats one of the most disappointing things to happen to this team this year...his lack of progress. He looked good against Purdue .... I thought he was going to really come on....but he has been awful in the last 5 games. I hope that whoever is coaching ND next year gives #10 a chance to start

 

[hprides]

I don't see how Ron Powlous is quaterback coach,he was not that good when he was at Notre Dame. Get someone that can help this kid and knows what he is doing,Powlous is not a coach.

 

[Junkhead]

Claussen is overrated and the kids dont like him which might explain the poor blocking.

That is one of the stupidest things I've ever read on here. Thanks for the laugh.

 

[edcubby]

Clausen is a SOPHOMORE!!!! A TRUE SOPHOMORE!!! Not a redshirt. Please look at other true Sophomore QBs around the country and check their stats.

Clausen, Tate, Floyd, Allen and company will be very good next year if Weis stays.

 

[phork]

No they won't Stop being an apologist. Speaking of apologists the usual glut of them has seemingly disappeared.
I think Powlus got the job because Beano promised him 2 Heisman trophys, and ND didn't come through.

 

[Junkhead]

Clausen, Tate, Floyd, Allen and company will be very good next year if Weis stays.

And they will be even better with a real coach.

 

[JeremyND07]

I am not a big JC fan but he is only SOPHOMORE!!!! We have no offensive weapons without Floyd because Tate is double teamed EVERY play! We have no running game because our OL is horrible! With Floyd back and Shaq here..along with a new OL coach JC will be a GREAT QB next year in my opinion!

 

[Golden_Domer88]

Its pretty sad that Weis is so arrogant to the point where he wont get rid of the assistant coaches who absolutely suck untill his job is on the line. Weis does not have a clue and he will never have it in the college level. He needs to go back to the pros where you do not have to motivate the players.

 

[ARALOU]

The OC and DC are in their first year, correct? Should we have pulled an Auburn and fired the OC in halfway thru the first season? Besides the free fall did not really start until the...... uh now that I think about it we never really were that good this year on offense. The possible OT win against Pitt when clausen missed the wide open reciever and hit the tuba player should have been quite telling. Now it appears that it was a sign.
