Clausen in Fight. May Not Play on Saturday
The hits keep on coming for Notre Dame:
Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen was involved in a fight outside a South Bend bar early Sunday morning, according to a report Monday evening by WGN-AM’s David Kaplan.
According to Kaplan, Clausen has two black eyes from the altercation at around 2:30 a.m. Sunday. The incident comes on the heels of the Irish’s overtime loss to Connecticut, their fifth of the season, leaving Notre Dame at 6-5.
The Clausen report isn’t news Notre Dame coach Charlie Weis wants to hear as he faces his own scrutiny with a final game at Stanford Saturday. Athletic director Jack Swarbrick is expected to decides Weis’ fate at the school early next week.
This comes at a terrible time for Weis and the Notre Dame program. Clausen may not be able to play on Saturday vs. Stanford due to either his injuries or some sort of punishment for being in the altercation. With Clausen possibly leaving for the NFL, we may have already seen his last game dressed in a ND uniform.
