It’s time to get the hype train going for early enrollee quarterback Tyler Buchner. Take a look at this pretty deep ball from one of the best recruits of the 2021 class.

With Ian Book moving on, Notre Dame has a hole at the most important position in all of sports. Yes, Buchner just graduated from high school just a few months ago, but count me in the camp to let the young man play early.
Transfer Jack Coan should get the first shot at running offensive coordinator Tommy Rees’ offense, but if Coan struggles, it makes tons of sense to get Buchner more experience. I can’t see Brian Kelly putting himself in the same position they saw this off-season, entering the year with your quarterback room with virtually no experience.
This might be a complete overreaction to one 8-second clip, but at one point in time Buchner was a 5-star according to the majority of recruiting services. Either way I’m jumping on this hype train and seeing where it takes the Irish.
