    I don’t think Book is actually the best QB in Notre Dame history or anything, but he does have some of the most accomplishments, which says a lot about some of the guys they’ve had play QB since Clausen. It’s been rough with Kizer, Golson, Rees, Wimbush, etc.

    IIRC, Book only really played early on because Wimbush was hurt

    I really don't understand why we can't get a great QB.

    It's like they don't want anything flashy. They tried to keep Joe Montana down, and if it wasn't for 2 injuries, he may never haver been given a real chance.

    He wasn't the typical Domer. He was actually supposed to live in the same hall I was in my Freshman year, and even in the same hallway, but he "secretly" lived off campus and was married. (I never saw him in my dorm, but I did see Orlando Woolridge and other players like Luther Bradley and Jerome Heavens.)

    New rankings:
    1. AL (44 first place votes)
    2. GA (17)
    3. OH St (2)
    4. MI
    5. Clem
    6. TX A&M
    7. OK
    8. ND
    9. Baylor
    10. USC

    (Blue= Teams ND plays, this year)
    I saw zero minutes of the USC game since they were playing lowly Rice. I have no idea if they are really a top 10 team.

    Their QB alone could put them top 10, Caleb Williams is a stud

    And Wimbush was so damn inconsistent. Book came in, made all the throws, was more elusive than we thought and decision making was good. He never had an elite tool, just made the plays that were asked of him
    Hal sucks

    It's the rest of the team I'm worried about.

    Buchner showing today he is not the answer at QB. There is still time left but he very well may lose to MARSHALL....

    Yeah he’s awful. Just ignored Mayer wide open to throw a pick 6 on opposite side of the field

    I was worried about Buchner before the season even started. Looks like anything, but the TE is a worry on offense.

    The season is over and it just barely started!

    I said this back in December, and it’s worse than I thought it would be.

    I didnt have any confidence in him, but this is worse than I expected. He and Pyne were pathetically bad today.

    I didn't expect the team to be great this season with how much talent they lost, but this is unacceptable loss.

    Now you know what it is like being a UConn fan.

    But I will always be proud

    Breaking News for Notre Dame! Buchner out for rest of year after having shoulder surgery. Sounds like a A Red Sox season to me.
