Thanks. Damn Robot Charlies blog posted an article about and then took it down, but RSS readers picked it up and its now posted over on Ramblin Rackets blog. Idk, maybe charlie told DJ to do that to throw every one off.

 

[goldandblue]

HMMM. Interesting, but none the less it's all hearsay. It won't be long til we will all know for sure who it is going to be.

Jones' high school coach in on the secret

By Bob Sakamoto
Tribune staff reporter

August 30, 2007, 12:46 PM CDT

Morgan Park coach Lexie Spurlock got a phone call Thursday morning from his former quarterback Demetrius Jones, who is battling freshman Jimmy Clausen and junior Evan Sharpley to start for Notre Dame Saturday against Georgia Tech.

Spurlock chuckled when intimating he didn't want to reveal Irish coach Charlie Weis' big secret, but the Mustangs coach said: "Let's just say Demetrius is going to make everyone in Chicago proud. I would think anyone who is taking most of the snaps in practice would be the guy who starts.

"Coach Weis knows with the new offensive linemen, he needs a quarterback with the most escapability. That would be Demetrius. He ran track relays for me all four years over here.''

Spurlock, who lives in Valparaiso, gave serious consideration to making the 66-mile drive to the Golden Dome to watch the first half of Saturday's game.

But with No. 17 Morgan Park facing No. 16 Richards 7 p.m. Saturday at Gately Stadium, Spurlock figured he wouldn't have enough time to properly prepare for the Bulldogs

well now, way to go and blow the secret, spurlock.

and steve, it's still a massive conspiracy to confuse everyone. I hear bragg is still going to start. but gillet still might play.

 

[Steve]

that's good, bc i just got done ordering my darrin bragg #12 jersey

 

[CLEARWALL]

Still holding out hope for Pat Kuntz. COME ON KUNTZIE!

well now, way to go and blow the secret, spurlock.

Whatever man, these are the guys you should be busting on. (And I strongly encourage everyone to do so.)

Kevin McDougal (one of the most underrated QB's of all time) anyone???

 

[KAPLAN]

Kevin McDougal and Co have alot of similarities with this team. I have a gut feeling that CW is up to something and if he is not. We have 2 days to gameday, One for travel and then GT better be ready. It is not like they can change everything now. I would not be surprised if CW announces that DD will be QB before the game.

Where are you going to be this weekend? Nashville, Birmingham, or Fla?

Nashville

hell yeah kevin mcdougal......damn those Fredo BC bastards.......

 

[sonomairishfan]

D Jones will be the starter on Saturday. The kid has the most raw talent on the QB list. Evan is just slow and not much of an arm. JC has no arm since surgery, and I don't think he is all that as a player. (watched many of his High School games here in CA.)
Jones has legs that can get him out of the pocket against a blitz happy defense like GT. I think Jones will be the QB for the entire season and maybe more...

Fannation is on the SI website. Go to Sports Illustrated.com and look for the Fannation tab. It's a nice site with lots of commentary on every sport you can think of.

GO IRISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I heard from a 2006 ND starter that Sharpley is starting. Take that for what its worth.

 

[SillyIrish]

I heard Joe Montana is coming back for a start. On the other hand I could care less because thinking about who'll start the game will get me through my shift before game time.

 

[notredomer23]

I heard from a very credible source it is Darrin Bragg. Take the FWIW. I dont want my informant getting in trouble so i wont mention his name
