<p>Notre</a> Dame's Jimmy Clausen decides to enter draft - ESPN Chicago</p>
<p>They're both gone...the new coach won't have much to work with.</p>
<p>I wouldn’t say that. Christ will be a solid QB, especially with Floyd, Rudolph and Evans. And we’ll still have a strong run game with Armando (which the new coach will hopefully use a bit more than Charlie did)</p>
<p>And don’t forget Brian Smith and Manti Te’o on the defense. Maybe the only two bright spots.</p>
<p>yessir. we really need to get Chris Martin to re-commit at defensive end; that’s be so huge. I suspect that he will if Stoops ends up being the guy; Oklahoma’s another school on his list</p>
<p>Chirs Martin will not recommit - we got a 4 star DE instead - a slight drop off - going into spring, i think Hendrix will be our #1 QB - i heard he is enrolling early b/c crist won’t be ready yet from the ACL tear. This will cost him some valuable experience - but now with Kelly - look how he helped Collarous (or however you spell his name) improve mid season - crist may be better prepared.</p>
<p>well the reason that armando didn’t play more was because he was injured almost the entire season. It wasn’t really Weis’ call</p>
