Notre Dame QB Phil Jurkovec, former four-star prospect, into the transfer portal

Phil Jurkovec’s Notre Dame career began with Irish head coach Brian Kelly describing him as “the best quarterback in the country” in the recruiting class of 2018 on National Signing Day, and that may have been the highlight of his last two years. Jurkovec has entered the transfer portal, first reported by Matt Zenitz of AL.com.

Jurkovec’s career at Notre Dame valleyed with his Blue-Gold Game showing in April, a disaster of memorable proportions, when he struggled to complete just about any throw, both his spiral and his muscle memory abandoning him at the conclusion of spring practices.
