It is being reported by Irish Illustrated’s Tim Prister the the Notre Dame Fighting Irish will start Ian Book at quarterback when they travel to Winston-Salem to take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.
After the last 24 hours, this is not a surprise by any means.
Notre Dame has struggled to put points on the board, and in particular, in the second half of football games. This move, however coy Brian Kelly may seem when asked, smells a bit desperate. The quarterback position is certainly where most offenses derived their potency, but with the 2018 Notre Dame team — there have been plenty of other issues on offense not named Brandon Wimbush.
