Quarterback Tyler Buchner Transfers from Notre Dame to Alabama

Buchner, Notre Dame's former starting quarterback, announced he is transferring to Alabama.
Buchner will have three years of eligibility left and is expected to compete for Alabama's starting quarterback job.
Buchner's offensive coordinator at Notre Dame, Tommy Rees, is now Alabama's offensive coordinator, leading Buchner to choose Alabama.
Alabama struggled at quarterback in the spring game, leaving an opening for Buchner to potentially start.
Buchner thanked Notre Dame but said transferring to Alabama is the "best decision" for his future.
