From what I hear, he is getting to know the playbook and the offense very well, and we might see him sooner than you think.

On a side note, NDs lack of offense on Saturday shows how good Quinn really is. Last year, Quinn was putting up points with a very similiar offense talent wise. I know that the ND team lost 2 WR, a RB, and some of the line, but none of those guys were drafted that high, and their replacements on this years team are at the same talent level. They replaced Darius Walker with Travis Thomas, James Aldridge, and the speedy Armondo Allan. At WR, they still have David Grimes and their TE Carleson. ND could get nothing done offensively on Saturday, but with almost that same offense last year, Quinn kept on plugging away and putting points on the board. All I'm saying is that the guy is good.

Jeff Sazmargkinaminski single handedly saved your butts last year almost every week. All Quinn had to do was get the ball somewhere near him and he'd catch it.
