It appears to me that there were a few bad apples on his Notre Dame team, and he is taking the heat for all of them.
I do prefer Bradford myself, but Claussen is gaining my respect for how he is handling this onslaught of negative perceptions. I am finding it easier to root for him the more he gets pounded on.
Agreed. My only problem though with Clausens interviews is hearing virtually the exact same laundry list everytime. Although it's pretty obvious that he's being asked the same questions time and time again. I personally really like him as a QB prospect but at the same time it's really hard to project these guys. Kind of like Butler making it to the finals. Still having a coach like Shanahan really helps your chances of getting a hit and the craziest part is that Kyle might be better right now then his father in that regard.
