I guess he'll apply for medical hardship and hopefully be eligible immediately?

Was the #2 DT in the 2017 class.

VOLS ADD TRANSFER DEFENSIVE LINEMAN AUBREY SOLOMON
December 21, 2018
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Tennessee football head coach Jeremy Pruitt announced the addition of transfer defensive lineman Aubrey Solomon on Friday.

Solomon played at Michigan from 2017 to 2018 following a standout prep career at Lee County High School in Leesburg, Ga., where he was rated a five-star recruit and a consensus top five defensive tackle product in the 2017 class.

"Aubrey is a guy that a lot of coaches on our staff knew when he was a young man in high school, and we all recruited him," Pruitt said. "He can play all three downs. He's a powerful man. He's smart. He's a good student. He has experience, having already played at the collegiate level. He is a great addition to our university and our football program."

A 6-3, 297-pounder, Solomon appeared in 18 games with the Wolverines, totaling 24 tackles and two TFLs. He had 18 tackles and two TFLs while appearing in all 13 games as a true freshman in 2017 before being limited by injury this past fall.

Solomon tallied 77 tackles, 16 TFLs, 12 sacks and 18 quarterback hurries as a senior at Lee County High School in 2016, leading his prep team to the Georgia Class AAAAAA playoffs. He collected All-USA Georgia First Team honors as a senior and was recognized as the Class 6A Defensive Player of the Year by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution in 2016 in addition to first-team All-America honors from MaxPreps.

Solomon played in the 2017 U.S. Army All-American Bowl and was ranked as the nation's No. 23 overall recruit, No. 2 defensive tackle prospect and No. 2 player in Georgia in the 247Sports Composite rankings

Bleacher Report has us as the #15 class. They say we signed everyone we expected to. They also mentioned that we filled everything we need to improve the team though the lack of a star receiver stands out compared to other SEC programs.

We were heavy in the trenches which doesn't move the needle a lot with the star gazers....We moved up to 13th with Gray committing on Scout......If we finish like some folks believe we will finish top 10.....Not bad coming off 2 back to back losing seasons.

We needed big help in the trenches - got some - need more, especially on the DL
Need LBs and WRs to round out the class in Feb
