Notre Dame Football: Ian Book is dark horse to win Davey O’Brien Award

It hasn’t been often that the Notre Dame football team has entered Fall camp without any uncertainty or speculation at the quarterback position. Even though the Irish were steadfast that Brandon Wimbush would be the starter entering 2018, many speculated about Ian Book’s abilities. It wasn’t long before Book took over the starter and took the Irish offense to new heights.

The scary part for opposing defenses is that Book will look to improve and take the Irish to bigger and better places in 2019. If he is able to do that, he will, without a doubt, be a dark horse to bring home some major hardware by season’s end, including the prestigious Davey O’Brien Award.
