Brady Quinn arrived in South Bend in 2003 when I was 10 years old. It’s hard to remember much of the beginning stages of his career because, I was fairly young and didn’t have the access I do now to follow Notre Dame football from afar.
His freshman year was sort of a blur for me, because he was thrown into the fire by coach Tyrone Willingham. With the season ending with a 5-7 record it, wasn’t one you wanted to remember. He finished with a little over 1,800 yards passing with 9 touchdowns and 15 interceptions.
