Football: Notre Dame transfer Malik Zaire reportedly set for Wisconsin visit this week

After announcing his intent to transfer upon an expected graduation from Notre Dame later this month, ex-Fighting Irish quarterback Malik Zaire scheduled visits to Wisconsin and North Carolina this week, according to IrishIllustrated.com and ESPN.com.

In a report by IrishIllustrated.com, Zaire is expected to make his visits to the University of Wisconsin this Wednesday and University of North Carolina Friday.

Contact between Zaire and Wisconsin’s football program has intensified since his announcement last week, according to the same report.

Last Wednesday, Zaire was granted his desired release from Notre Dame’s football team with the intention of playing his fifth and final year of eligibility elsewhere.
