Tyler Buchner’s insane 18 months between Notre Dame and Alabama

Editor Barney Woods

When Tyler Buchner I ended up choosing Notre Dame As part of the football team’s 2021 recruiting class, the hope was that he could help the Fighting Irish win a national championship.

He did, but it didn’t happen as predicted by some.

On Monday, Buchner put the cap on an absolutely wild past 18 months.

Buchner was Notre Dame’s starting quarterback in 2022, struggling against Ohio State and Marshall before getting injured and missing the rest of the regular season. He returned for the Gator Bowl, where he earned home game MVP honors after throwing three touchdowns and rushing for two more in a comeback victory over South Carolina.

After Sam Hartman transferred to Notre Dame for the 2023 season, Buchner entered the transfer portal after spring practice, ending up at Alabama. He started one game for the Crimson Tide last fall, struggling mightily and falling behind Jalen Milroe for the rest of the year.

At the end of the regular season, Buchner announced that he would return to Notre Dame, but not to play football. Instead, the former Fighting Irish starting quarterback would join the current national championship lacrosse team, a sport he starred in while in high school in California.

Monday saw Buchner and the Fighting Irish crown the amazing season common dominating 15-5 victory over Maryland in the national championship. Buchner played as a reserve this year, as was expected after not playing lacrosse competitively in five years.

Whatever the future holds for Buchner, it will be difficult to imagine him going through as crazy an 18-month run as he just did.
