Right now, there are two burning questions surrounding Notre Dame. The first is whether it can play a strong final few games before Selection Sunday. The other asks if Blake Wesley will jump to the NBA after a phenomenal freshman season. The latter question almost is certain to be an affirmative one, especially after Wesley threw down this amazing dunk in the first half of the Irish’s road game at Florida State:

I mean, what can you really say about this? You never see this play happen for Notre Dame, at least not lately. Then again, the Irish never have had a player like Wesley, and whatever he does after the season ends, he will be remembered in South Bend forever. That he’s sure to head to the NBA soon only will add to his legend.
Enjoy Wesley while you can, Irish fans. Pretty soon, he’ll be making these plays at the next level.
