The Notre Dame coaching staff has Weisened up

Notre Dame Evan SharpleyBy Adam Abramson

I've been saying it for about a month now: Evan Sharpley should be starting at Notre Dame.

Finally the coaches have logged on to Campus Confidential and realized I was right.

The junior will start over Jimmy Clausen on Saturday against Southern California. He came in against Purdue and played well. Came in against Boston College and played well -- relatively speaking in both cases, of course.

“I think Evan this week gives us the best chance of winning,” head coach Charlie Weis said Tuesday.

I wouldn't go that far, my man.

What gives you the best chance of winning against the Trojans is finding a way to get Jonathan Ogden, Walter Jones, Alan Faneca, Larry Allen and Jeff Saturday to suit up for you and protect Sharpley. Even then, it's questionable.

Clausen has been sacked 23 times this year, give the kid a rest. However, Weis has a stable of OL coming through and if Clausen isn't the next coming of Montana, Dayne Crist is coming in.

Until then, make me look good, Sharpley!
