A couple more games like Saturday may give him the confidence (arrogance) to enter the draft?

Teams aren't going to spend a draft pick on someone who would essentially be relegated to being a backup QB at best, given his size and arm strength. Maybe in the older days of the 12 round draft, he could have been a late round pick, but with today's draft being only 7 round, it's simply not going to happen.
Think of it this way... Someone like Ty Detmer (similar traits, although Book has a clear advantage on mobility), who was a QB god in the world of college football, was lucky to be drafted in the 9th round, back in 1992. The knock on Detmer was that he would have been the perfect franchise QB, if he were 3 inches taller, 30 pounds heavier, and could throw for more than 40 yards.
That being said, I'm confident that someone would offer Book a priority free agent contract, and he would certainly have a legit chance of sticking around.
athletes to be an asset to your team, then maybe not a good idea to think about the NFL.

against the elite teams, like Clemson, on next year's schedule, which he has not done to date. If he was to enter the draft, I doubt he would be anything better than a late round pick right now, in my opinion.
His free agent tryouts will be fun to follow.
He may have as long a pro football career at QB as his position coach did.
contemporaries. From what I’ve seen of him seems like a good kid and a competitor.

Is there an ND QB on a roster right now? I know there isnt one playing on Sunday

games and I could see him being the next Darious Walker.
And we don't even know what he aspires for but even playing in camp has financial rewards at little risk, especially for a qb.
But he will never play as a qb in an NFL game that counts. I'd even say he'll never play in any NFL game.
He wont be playing on Sundays....
