OT: Former Michigan LB commit Darrin Kirkland transferring
Tennessee linebacker Darrin Kirkland, Jr. is going the grad transfer route and leaving Tennessee. He was originally committed to Michigan in the 2015 class before signing with the Volunteers. He had 111 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss, 4 sacks, and 1 interception in 2015 and 2016 combined, but he missed 2017 with an injury. He was committed to the Brady Hoke regime, so I'm not sure whether the current staff has any interest, but I thought it was noteworthy, anyway.
UPDATE: So now it seems as if he's not transferring.

just fall back on all that Costco money.
not tonight that I know of. I live on the corner at the entrance of my sub, so I only know when my neighbor is at it. I want the Rockets v Celtics. I want to see thngs get changed up.
look like a Lithianian woman's legs in February. That's first on my list for Saturday morning.
/It's cool, I'm Lithuanian
You spelled Kansas incorrectly
Greg Mattison was involved with recruiting him.

I know LB is the position Michigan is the most loaded at. But his experience could be valuable. The SEC is a tough place to play. And he had pretty good numbers there.
You know, I've become very curious about him.
Is he indeed interested in Michigan?
*INSERT CAN HE PLAY OT JOKE HERE*
I'm guessing with the sheer amount of depth we have at LB (and very good depth at that), Michigan won't be an option.
Was a bummer he never came here, but it was hard to blame him for looking elsewhere when Hoke's final year was as disastrous as it was. Hope he finds a good spot.
Wowzers..... So how many years does he have left to play? lol
In a strange update, it sounds like Kirkland is now planning to stay at Tennessee:
