Notre Dame Football: Brandon Wimbush Not on Davey O’Brien Award Watch List

The Davey O’Brien National Quarterback Award watch list, released today, features 13 seniors, 12 juniors and a sophomore. It includes signal callers from the North Texas Mean Green, the UMass Minutemen, Buffalo Bulls and Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders.

It does not include Brandon Wimbush, the presumptive starting quarterback for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

While being named to the watch list is not a prerequisite for being named a semifinalist on Nov. 6, a finalist on Nov. 19 or a winner on Dec.
