Clausen is better than Quinn. But just to ease your nerves, Clausen will most likely go in the Top 15. We couldn't get him anyway.

i wasn't sure, I've seen Clausen, never saw Quinn at ND. I just wonder if hes a system QB. long ball has been in question. but you are right, he wouldnt land to us anyway.

It will definitely be in the back of my head whenever I watch him. Clausen can make all the throws though. Coming out of college, I don't feel like Quinn was as gifted as Clausen is. But I am definitely interested to see how he turns out. Quinn just always seemed like a tool to me...if that counts for anything.

it's not like he grew up in the spread. The Weis system is the exact same we use. So it's not like he has to learn the WCO after playing the run and shoot, or learn the Coryell O after being a read-option/veer/flexbone QB.

Tom Brady is technically a Charlie Weis QB.

good point.

Clausen's the only guy Weis picked. Quinn was picked by someone else. Brady was recruited and picked by someone else.

It's like the difference between Kyle Boller and Aaron Rodgers. Jeff Tedford made Boller look good enough to draft, but he picked Rodgers as his QB and made him into a star. There's definitely a difference between making a senior look good and hand-grooming a guy from start to finish.

      Yeah I'm still not sure about Canales' play calling but I'll give him another season. Still can't quite figure out why you think Young won't work out. His numbers with Theilen are as good as any QB Theien's ever had - including the three games he has started with Rogers this year. Cokers' numbers are as good as Theilens and he is an UDFA and TMac is in the run for ORTY with Young as his QB. Young's throwing more accurately now (from 21.5% in 23 to 16.5% this year) and he has shown he can make the throws in clutch moments. If you take into account he was saddled with XL, Chark, Mingo and Johnson for receivers at one point, had a coaching staff his first year that didn't want him and a current coach who is suspect at play calling, I'm not sure he has been as bad as people here say. I know he has had terrible moments/games but most qb's still on their rookie contract will.  Anyway, had to give my weekly BY plug. Guess I thought this was the perfect time lol.

      He missed a lot of time. Was slow getting back up to speed. And we have an offense that is not exactly WR friendly so his targets were low.  How many targets does anyone get when you have 120 yards passing, 54 yards passing, 160 yards, most of the time? It probably took the time it needed to take.

      The 5th year option jus gives them a little more time to make their decision and figure out the position going forward.  The idea that it means hes def gonna get a extension is asinine.
