In a surprise move today, Notre Dame‘s projected starting quarterback for the upcoming 2023 season, Tyler Buchner, entered the transfer portal and has decided to be selective in his options, rather than letting the schools come to him.
Buchner’s presence in the portal comes with a no-contact tag, which means he will be the one to reach out to schools he is interested in. Though this is unconventional, it means he has a general idea of where he wants to play next season.
Fans and members of the media were quick to share their opinions on Twitter. One of the more popular theories is that he will look to transfer to Alabama and reconnect with his former offensive coordinator, who now holds the same position for the Crimson Tide, Tommy Rees.
