Notre Dame Football Perspective: Ian Book In 2019 Was Brady Quinn In 2006

Before everyone gets all in a huff about “how dare he compare Ian Book and Brady Quinn” just settle down. This isn’t a comparison of their games or their ability as players. I don’t want to get into that because that isn’t the point. This is about perception.

After going through last season and this offseason, it appears to be true that Ian Book is a polarizing player. Some think he is great. Some think he’s reached his ceiling and should have been replaced by Phil Jurkovec. We expected him to take THE LEAP in 2019.
