It was a Saturday afternoon in early September of last year. I was working on a project in my den and decided to put on a little college football in the background. Notre Dame happened to be playing Florida State. I wasn’t paying particularly close attention to the game, but this quarterback for the Fighting Irish kept catching my eye. I knew that their star signal caller of recent years, Ian Book, had moved on to the NFL, and I had wondered what they would do without him.
Well, this new guy was putting on quite a show.
