While former Notre Dame football quarterback [autotag]Jimmy Clausen[/autotag] never quite lived up to his recruiting hype, he still played major college football and made it to the NFL.
He spent five seasons with the Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears and Baltimore Ravens and endeared himself to those fan bases. Clausen on Friday returned to Chicago and was seen attending the Chicago Cubs game as they hosted the Cincinnati Reds.
That wasn’t all the festivities of the weekend for the California native, as he made the short trip from the Windy City over to South Bend. Clausen was spotted walking by the Grotto, one of many former players making a return to campus as the Irish prepare to take on the Louisville Cardinals.
This is a big recruiting weekend for Notre Dame, as they are welcoming in multiple prospects, committed and uncommitted. Hopefully the alumni paint a good picture and the Irish come out on top where it matters, on the field.
