He says he dropped out for “personal reasons.”The 6-foot-3, 285-pound junior from Indianapolis won’t elaborate on why he’s not at school. And the university can’t comment because of privacy laws.Kuntz says he plans to return to Notre Dame, possibly as early as this summer, and hopes to play for the Irish this fall.Kuntz started 10 games as the Irish went 3-9 last season, but missed the final two games with injuries. He tore ligaments in his left knee against Air Force and found out a back injury from the previous game against Navy was a cracked bone in his spine.
