Why Jones makes sense for Irish

10:21 AM ET 09.01 | Expect Demetrius Jones to be dubbed the successor to Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn, and not just because his high school coach has intimated as much. Starting Jones makes the most sense if the three-way quarterback competition was as tight as Weis claimed it to be. Jones is the most athletic of the three, and his ability to move the chains with his feet could lend consistency to a Kelly-green-behind-the-ears unit, particularly against a veteran Georgia Tech defense that relishes blitzing quarterbacks, especially inexperienced ones.

I care who starts a QB....Whats fair is fair..That kid from California did'nt shine too brightly during the spring game...if Jones or the kid Evan don't start, I will personally cut off Weis's greasy cheeseburger supply....The defense is lookin nice and confident...as they should, that new D-coordinator has those boys humpin....

So what does this mean for the years to come? If Clausen is such a super prospect then he needs to be getting the experience for later years when the Irish team is a legitimate title contender.

Talk about missing the boat SI. It is nice to have a top 25 scorebaord but not having the Irish game highlighted when you click scores and making a person have to perform extra clicks to find out is plain stupid. Play to your fans you dorks.
