Football: AP source says Clausen has a black eye after punch

Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen was sporting a black eye behind the tinted visor he wore to practice Tuesday. According to a university official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak about the matter, Clausen was punched outside a South Bend bar early Sunday morning.

Clausen was at C.J.'s Pub about 2 a.m. with his family and girlfriend after Notre Dame's double overtime loss to Connecticut, according to the official. The group decided to leave after words were exchanged with others at the bar, the official said.

As they were leaving, Clausen's girlfriend realized she left her purse behind. Clausen went back to retrieve the purse and someone followed him outside and punched him, the official said. Clausen did not fight back and left. Police were called to the scene, arrived within minutes, but everyone was gone.
