Former Notre Dame quarterback Dayne Crist will be reuniting with
former head coach Charlie Weis at Kansas. Crist said on Thursday via Twitter that he
will be transferring to KU. Crist began this season as the Irish's starter, but was
replaced by Tommy Rees after one half of play in Notre Dame's season-opener against
South Florida. Weis was the Irish's head coach for Crist's first two years in the
program, but was fired in 2009. He was named Kansas' head coach earlier this month.
Crist's most productive season at Notre Dame was his junior season in 2010. He threw
for 2,033 yards and 15 touchdowns, but suffered a ruptured patella tendon in the ninth
game of that season.
