Now that it's official that Marcel Reed is healthy enough to take on the Notre Dame football team on Saturday, Marcus Freeman's unusual method of preparing should pay off in spades. The Fighting Irish head coach pulled out a secret weapon, Scrap Richardson, to get his group ready to take on one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in the country.

Richardson was a versatile athlete during his high school days at Greenville High in Georgia. The Irish are taking advantage of that by having him run the scout team offense this week.
