Notre Dame Football: Senior Bowl practice week helped these 3 prospects
By Brad Weiss
Notre Dame football star QB Ian Book had a fantastic week
The winningest quarterback in Notre Dame football history has taken his talents to Mobile, and his skills have not been lost on scouts, and reporters alike. Book is showing how he has the ability to make plays with his arm, and his legs, and has been one of the standouts for the National team during practice week.
Joe Schad, a Miami Dolphins journalist for Palm Beach Post and former ESPN writer said that Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores had a lot of nice things to say about Book, and that is big praise coming from a coach who has helped rebuild that program in South Beach.
Brian Flores: Ian Book is smart, loves the game, is tough. He has command of the huddle. Command at the line of scrimmage. He did well for himself this week. Via ESPNU

Todd McShay, who is currently with ESPN, gave Book a glowing review as well, and he is someone who is widely considered one of the better draft experts in the country.
Show up and BALL.

Nobody is saying that Book will be a first-round pick, or even a Day 2 guy, but as the week has gone on, he may be cementing himself as a legitimate 2021 draft pick, and any team would be lucky to have him in the quarterback room.
