Yes!

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

Was the #2 DT in the 2017 class.   :thumbup:

He will, and likely he will get it.

Huge get even if he can't play until 2020

Hopefully more good news coming at 6:30 tonight. Stay tuned. :naughty:

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.

Bad part is the usual suspects had 4 of the top 5 positions. 1)Bama 2)Uga 4)LSU 5)aTm. The rich get richer.

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

well, let's forget those guys right now. We need to beat Vandy, SCe and Mizzou first. Baby steps

 :clap:

Yep, that's for sure.

CJP putting it to Harbaugh lately.
