Jimmie Clausen is he overrated or not?

Has anyone seen film of Jimmie Clausen? Does he really look that good or is he a overated prospect for ND?

He hasn't played a college snap, so ask again in 4 years.

I've seen some film on Clausen, and unlike his brothers, he's very athletic. Dude is pretty tough.

Trust me, after Clausen's freshman year at Notre Dame, you won't think that. Unfortunately, Clausen is the real deal. I do not like Notre Dame at all, but they've got something special with this kid.

Same thing OSU said about Justin Zwick.

I think he will have a career similar to Casey Clausen, a modestly successful college QB with no NFL career.

CC was I believe the #5 QB prospect in the nation out of high school. I don't believe he ever made all-SEC at UT and went undrafted in the NFL.

I think Garcia will be good for a while he looked good last night, but DM is a class act.

Garcia is like Romo and Grossman in the fact I think they all hit very hot streaks but it comes crashing down sooner or later, where Brady and Manning types just play well all the time.

Justin Zwick was good enough that it took the guy that might win the Heisman Trophy in the biggest landslide ever over a year to pass him on the depth chart. If Zwick wanted to transfer to UT, I'd take him.

Justin Zwick was never as highly regarded or ranked as Jimmy Clausen is.

Very true.

**tidwell** · 12-05-2006, 06:47 PM

He's a high school prospect, they're all overrated at this point. How is Notre Dame's QB situation looking next year with Quinn gone? Is JC gonna get thrown into the fire from day one?

Is Zwick still gonna be there next year? I'd been wondering who Tressel had behind Smith. Didn't know if Zwick was still there or not.
