Notre Dame Football: Jimmy Clausen Was Just The Greatest

We’re talking about the best Notre Dame Fighting Irish football players during the Charlie Weis era. As I said in the opening post, despite the horrible record Weis had during his time at Notre Dame, he did have quite a bit of talent. The only names (for the most part) that were dropped, were Brady Quinn, Jeff Samardzija, Golden Tate, and Tommy Zibikowski.

Those are some great players- legends, if you will, but for me and my house, our favorite player of the Weis era will forever be Jimmy Clausen.

Jimmy Clausen immediately got off to a rough start when he announced his commitment to play for Notre Dame in the spring of 2006.
