Plus at most schools if you redshirt a year, you have 5 years to complete your undergrad degree. The transfer rule is a bonus for those that redshirt a year and get their undergrad in 4 years.

60% completion percentage. Over 2000 yards. 15 TDs vs 7 INTs. QB rating of 129.3. That's what Crist did in 2010. Injuries have hurt this kid. He can play. He wasn't a great fit for the scheme he was in. If he goes to Texas, he is way better than what they have, but I think they need to let those young guys play and get better. If he goes to Wisconsin, he will have an outstanding year.

Buckeye fans should hope he goes to Texas and stays out of the B1G. I know I'd rather go to Wisconsin and play them with a 1st year starter than have Crist in there.

Why shouldn't he have the chance to pursue a masters at a school of his choice?

He should, and you're right. It's just that I'd hate for this to become the norm and be the equivalent of the one-and-done in basketball. I don't like it there, and I certainly don't like it here. JMO.

Its not going to be the norm. They have to graduate in 4 years.

@PeteThamelNYT: Sources: Dayne Crist will visit Kansas for a potential transfer and reunion with Charlie Weis. He leaves tomorrow morning

Or in reality, he's transferring there because he'd ride the bench at Wisconsin.

@lotz...now that makes sense, especially for Crist-- if Weis can do for him what he did for Quinn, it'll benefit both of them

LOL that was quick.

@dcrist10: After a long & difficult decision making process, I'm incredibly excited to join the Kansas football team. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!

Good for him and I hope he does well.

Probably an upgrade at Kansas with Crist playing QB, but let's not forget that he kept getting passed on Notre Dame's depth chart. At this point, he appears to be one of the bigger recruiting busts in recent memory

He kept getting passed? You sure about that?

I'm remotely sure? I know Rees took over early and then didn't Hendrix eventually take over as the backup?

Damn, Jake Heaps is transferring to Kansas now too.

Rees was indeed given the job, but Crist was always the guy who would go in if Rees had a season-ending injury. Hendrix could be the future so they played him against Stanford.
