He actually said "you got that?" and said again that HE would be the ONLY person to discuss the health of ND players. Reading between the lines of this comment my guess is that CW talked with the older JC and told him what is what at ND. This isn't Oaks HS anymore... Go Irish!

His dad isn't going to run to the media behind Weis' back. Maybe Clausen's dad figured this was old news, and we are talking about football here, every player has some bumps and bruises.

Dad has been involved for a long time with Jimmy's football progression. Now that he's at ND, that's CW's job. Sorry pops, time to just be a fan and a Dad. Leave the media to the big man. I agree.

Remember Todd Marinovich at USC, whose father was always running his mouth in the media? He effectively managed his kid into obscurity after a stint with the dreadful Raiders.

It might have been done at the command of Weis. Perhaps not. We'll never know. It might be a clever way of “managing expectations.” It might have been done at the command of Weis. Perhaps not.

Weiss has been very disciplined about not talking about injuries and, to the best of my recollection, I have never seen a parent commenting on their sons injury at ND. I do hope that this does not become a problem with Jimmy's Dad in the future and that Charlie reigns this in now before it becomes an issue. I am not saying it IS and issue yet but parents talking to the media about injuries, playing time, football strategy etc. can't be allowed to happen. This isn't Razorback country!
