I've heard all kinds of stuff about this kid. Pictures of him participating in the "Beer Olympics" when still underage, showing up at Notre Dame as a freshman in a limo wearing a fur coat, I heard his family was a nightmare with the boosters, demanding 40 tickets a game for friends, etc etc. Hell, he got punched in a the face outside of a restaurant in South Bend by a Notre Dame fan!! LOL!!
I just can't stand him. I will be legitimately angry if he somehow ends up a Redskin.

Most of that is from when he was a Freshman and Sophmore. Personally the difference for me between my Freshman year and now is like night and day. Without telling to much I will say that I tried A LOT of stuff when I first got to college. I was partying at least 3 days a week with more then just alcohol. Making out with random girls, skipping class, etc.
Today I don't even drink, I only use my Adderall on as need basis and rarely use caffeine (maybe a 5 hour energy once or twice a month). On top of that I have no desire to drink anytime in the near future. My brother went through a relatively similar situation as a colleigate athlete, though not nearly as crazy as I was and today it's safe to say that the only thing in his system might be caffine. He to gave up drinking a while ago himself. Granted this is just my own experience and based on a limited scope but my point is that it's not inconceivable that Clausen could have had his own turnaround and based on what I've heard from Notre Dame students thats what seems to have happened. I guess at Notre Dame you would call it a "coming to Jesus" moment.
