Down to Three

30th May 2007



The quarterback race at Notre Dame has been narrowed down to three players. Evan Sharpley, Demetrius Jones and Jimmy Clausen are the three contenders now, excluding sophomore Zach Frazer. The competition will now run until the fall with all three players, even though we were expecting only two to remain.

Charlie Weis was quoted for saying this:

“After concluding spring ball evaluations, Evan Sharpley, Demetrius Jones and Jimmy Clausen remain as the main contenders. Each of these three young men brought something unique to the QB competition. Evan ran the operation the best, Jimmy threw the ball the best, and Demetrius made the most plays. For these reasons, they will compete for playing time.”

Quarterbacks

In other news, freshman Defensive Back, Gary Gray had surgery after exams and it is likely that he will not play this season. He had shoulder surgery and it is not believed to be a result of his broken arm during a spring practice. After extremely high expectations, we will have to wait until next year to see what this kid can do.

Also, Charlie Weis announced that the team will be using Big East officials this year, rather than the usual Big Ten.
