Notre Dame QB Transfers

Notre Dame senior QB Demetrius Jones, who started the teams openers against Georgia Tech, will be wearing a different uniform next season...Can you blame him. It's reported that he will transfer to Northern Illinois and began taking classes their next semester. Notre Dame head coach Charlie Weis is down playing the whole situation...probably because it's his fault why the kid is leaving. The way he has handle this QB situation is pathetic; you shouldn't have told these kids the job is open when you know who the media and the "BOOSTERS" want to start. Is Demetrius Jones better than true freshman Jimmy Clausen, maybe not. But he didn't get a fair shot to prove himself...One quarter of football against one of the best defensive teams in the ACC...that's not fair. Maybe if Jones' arm was as good as his speed and quickness he would have gotten more of a chance...doubt it. Coach Weis could have scripted an offense that plays in to Jones' style, but then we wouldn't be watching future All-American Jimmy Clausen this afternoon against Michigan...Would we.
