The shocking news surfaced late Saturday night that the quarterback who led the Notre Dame Fighting Irish to the BCS National Championship game earlier this year was no longer with the team. Notre Dame confirmed that Everett Golson was no longer enrolled at the university, but there was no exact reason given for his departure. While the news of Golson leaving the university sent shockwaves through the loyal Fighting Irish fan base, many of his former teammates took to Twitter to share their thoughts.
