I think we've only seen him in one game. Any indications of how ready he might be to play if Wimbush goes down? Any indications if Book will dress in case Wimbush goes down?
Wimbush, if Book is out.
FSU will try to replicate last years Miami game.
There is no reason at this stage to try to get Wimbush to fit what they want to do. They tried that and it didn't work that well. I'm thinking MSU & USC '17 vintage: Limited reads . . . and if it isn't there, don't be afraid to use your legs.

There will be a few, but not many...and likely from the Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, and Indianapolis area. Having worked in Florida for 15+ years, locals would not even play golf if the high temp for the day was under 65*. Good old, hearty,dressed for the weather and filled with antifreeze ND fans, on Sr. Day, will fill the stadium.....and I hope will be supportive throughout regardless of any adversity. Can't imagine any ND fan not wanting Brandon Wimbush to shine along with Dexter and the other seniors ....all without the QB who gave them all hope and got them to this point. The motivation factor, IMHO, is all ND in this one.
That said, I certainly hope that Ian Book's injury is not life-threatening or requires surgery which would be an all-time bummer for him and the Irish. If not, ND will have someone playing quarterback and planning to win the next 5 games.
In tight shirts.

Coming out of high school, Phil Jurkovec was already a pretty polished QB, and the offense that he ran in high school has quite a few similarities to Brian Kelly's hybrid spread / pro-style offense.
