Hours after Tyler Buchner announced he’d be entering the transfer portal, the junior quarterback has reportedly set a visit to Alabama.

According to multiple reports, Buchner’s first stop as he evaluates potential schools will be with the Crimson Tide.

Buchner was offered by Alabama when he was a four-star prospect in the class of 2021 and has ties to current offensive coordinator Tommy Rees, who recruited Buchner to South Bend, Indiana. John Brice of footballscoop.com tweeted Buchner may be in Tuscaloosa “as soon as (Tuesday) night.” ...

With all the talent we have I don't see this guy coming in and being a starter. JMHO! RTR!

I can't tell how much eligibility Buchner has left. He played some at ND but missed almost an entire season with injury, so maybe he didn't burn that year.

I also don't know what to think about the QB talent we already have. We offered Buchner in the 2021 class so CNS saw something then, so maybe now, coach thinks he is a better talent than what we have now.

If he comes in, we probably lose one or two to TP

I watched the A-Day Game.  We need a QB.

BTW, did you see that Ty Simpson injured his throwing arm during the game.   :facepalm:

We've been spoiled with great QBs over the past 8 years. We've needed them because our D wasn't particularly stellar. I didn't get to watch much of the A Day game, but the D looked pretty good, at least the first tier players.

We may not need more than a Jake Coker or Blake Barnett to take it all this year. At any rate, this was only spring ball. We'll know more in the fall. If that involves a new QB, that's ok with me.

I still think if the OC works and trains what we have our QB room will be fine. This guy didn't do much at ND last year. RTR!

He was out much of the year with an injury.  He only played 2 games before being injured, then returned to help win the bowl game.
