Report: Clausen will enter the draft

[Len B]

I'm never a fan of a QB who couldn't even lead his collegiate team to 8-4/9-3 seasons. A quarterback is supposed to make his players better (see Matt Ryan at BC ), but when you not only have a QB coach and a QB system and you fail to bring anything to ND in your four years, you probably won't be an elite NFL QB.

Psh, if Tebow was the true leader that everyone thinks he is then he would be able to turn Oakland into a winner.

So much truth in this sarcastic comment.

But like everyone says - ''One guy can't do it alone.''

Unless, of course, you're Kurt Warner.

Golden Tate will announce his departure shortly.

Yeah it's not like Jimmy never lead his team back from behind or on 4th quarter drives. It's not Clausen's fault that the Irish defense sucked this year. Clausen and the offense was the only thing keeping us in games 95% of the time. I think it's a little silly when evaluating Clausen to overlook the fact that he lead one of the nations top offenses but instead focus on his team being 6-6 due to the fact that the Notre Dame defense couldn't tackle or stop anyone.

After Sam Bradford and Matt Leinart, no solid junior QB will stay for their senior year.
If education is important to them, they'll have the money to pay for the senior year themselves.
