After spending three seasons with [B][URL='https://www.on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fighting-irish/']Notre Dame[/URL][/B], he [URL='https://www.on3.com/college/notre-dame-fighting-irish/news/drew-pyne-announces-decision-to-enter-transfer-portal-posts-message-thanking-notre-dame/']announced his intentions[/URL] today [URL='https://www.on3.com/college/notre-dame-fighting-irish/news/notre-dame-qb-drew-pyne-intends-to-enter-transfer-portal/']to enter the transfer portal[/URL]. He finally earned the starting job this season after [URL='https://on3.com/db/tyler-buchner-117404/']Tyler Buchner’s[/URL] season-ending injury. Now, it appears their breakup was caused by the program’s alleged interest in another QB. Per [URL='https://twitter.com/PeteSampson_']Pete Sampson[/URL] of The Athletic, the team reportedly told Pyne about their intentions to look around [URL='https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/wire/football/2023/']the portal[/URL] themselves for a new quarterback. He mentions a chance Pyne competes for the job again in the spring. Considering all things, though, it seems he’s focused on [URL='https://www.on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fighting-irish/news/notre-dame-quarterback-drew-pyne-reportedly-to-enter-transfer-portal/']finding snaps for next season elsewhere[/URL]. “Notre Dame informed Pyne the program planned to take a quarterback [URL='https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/category/transfer-portal-college-football/news/']transfer[/URL] this offseason,” said Sampson [URL='https://twitter.com/petesampson_/status/1598752360309874690?s=46&t=0bvEKLS6cTt4bhJdKtxUQQ']in a reply on Twitter[/URL] to Dan Orlovsky. “(He) could compete for the job in spring ball.” Pyne started 10 games for Notre Dame this season and led them to an 8-2 record. He completed 66.1% of his passes in those starts for 2,001 passing yards and 21 touchdowns. While many would take that production, it seems Pyne has taken the hint about the Irish’s intention this offseason. Pyne has been stuck behind [URL='https://on3.com/db/ian-book-48737/']Ian Book[/URL], [URL='https://on3.com/db/jack-coan-51002/']Jack Coan[/URL], and Buchner during his time in South Bend. That’s why you can’t really blame him when, after the success he found this season, he wants t[URL='https://www.on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fighting-irish/news/notre-dame-quarterback-drew-pyne-transfer-portal-reaction-blue-and-gold-illustrated-youtube/']o move on now[/URL] that the program appears prepared to do so as well." [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.on3.com/college/notre-dame-fighting-irish/news/notre-dame-insider-reveals-why-drew-pyne-entered-the-ncaa-transfer-portal[/URL] (ND has Tyler Buchner and Steve Angeli on the roster. 4 star Kenny Minchey is in this class and 5 star C.J. Carr the next. Pyne is a great kid and played his heart out. He wants playing time, who can blame him? He will be a good addition for whomever gets him.) [/QUOTE]
