In a move that is perhaps surprising, Notre Dame’s QB1, DeShone Kizer, has declared for the NFL Draft.
Via Twitter-dot-com, Kizer made it official some minutes ago:

Despite just two years under center, and difficulties at the position this year, Kizer’s move vaults Brandon Wimbush, the wunderkind from Saint Peter’s Prep, into the starter’s job. One hopes that Winbush’s talent and experience in the program will prevent any repetition of the awfulness that was the Kizer-Zaire experiment.
Kizer’s move comes despite opinions last week from Messrs. Kiper, Jr. and McShay that Kizer is best-served by utilizing his two years of remaining eligibility and putting the miscues of 2016 behind him.

Bayou Irish is a Jersey boy and Double Domer who fell under New Orleans' spell in 1995. He's been through Katrina and fourteen years in the Coast Guard, so we cut him some slack, mostly in the form of HLS-subsidized sazeracs. But, when he's not face down on the bar and communing with the ghosts of Faulkner and Capote at the Carousel Bar in the Hotel Monteleone, he's our man in SEC-land, doing his best to convince everyone around him that Graduation Success Rate is a better indicator of success than the number of MNC's won in the last five years.
