I'm not a ND fan so I can just give you what I think. Despite Tommy having a better winning percentage I would think most ND fans would take Clausen to QB a team over Tommy. I would think right now it would probably be 50-50 if it was between Clausen and Golson with older NDs probably recognizing how good of a passer Jimmy was ( I would be in that boat). Personally I think some of you guys are a little to enamored with Everettes ability to run and not remembering that he wasn;t the most accurate thrower. He had flashes but I don't think teams feared his throwing. Maybe Golson ( ooops earthquake).
Hope all is well on the earthquake front.
With respect to Clausen, I was a huge Jimmy fan, and wish he had stuck around another year. I'm also one of the older ND fans on this board, and appreciate how good a passer he was. But, I would never pick Clausen over Golson to be QB of this ream. With Kelly as coach, Golson has the mobility necessary to run Kelly's offense, Jimmy did not.
