Quarterback Jack Coan is headed to Notre Dame.
The former Wisconsin star announced Monday night that he was headed to play for the Fighting Irish in 2021. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
Coan missed the entire season for the Badgers with a foot injury.
Extremely thankful for the opportunity. Let’s get to work! @NDFootball pic.twitter.com/wKCEbWFgzY

I have two main things to say here. First and foremost, congratulations to Coan for landing on one of the best teams in America.
The young man is a class act, a great QB and he deserves to be on a team that wins at a high level. Notre Dame certainly fits the bills.
Former Wisconsin QB Jack Coan announces he’s transferring to #NotreDame. He completed 70% of his passes and had an 18-5 TD-INT ratio last year… The Irish QB room is also gonna be loaded with lacrosse talent.

Secondly, the game between ND and Wisconsin just got a hell of a lot more interesting next season. Is it a revenge game for Coan?
I’m not sure how else you could describe it! He’s going to be playing against his former team, which opted for Graham Mertz over him.
As a Wisconsin fan, I damn sure don’t want to be playing against Coan. He’s an incredibly legit quarterback.
All the way around, props to him for continuing his career at a high level, but I’m definitely not pumped about having to see him on the other sideline.
