    So, is this official? Is he definitely transferring?

    I hate to lose a quality player who may not be a starter now, but would serve as a good back up continuing to develop and eventually may contribute in a significant way and maybe even end up as a starter. He does have that potential.

    Certainly wish him well.

    I think it would be an incredibly classy move to let him transfer to Auburn.

    you know what, i agree with this, i see no reason why a year of eligibility has to be lost, that is a dumb rule. and for the record, i also think the ncaa should allow athletes to get paid for their services.

    It says a lot about a program that tries to do right by the players, even when they are leaving. That is all that needs to be said.

    We'll be attempting to keep the linebackers on the field to prevent substituting more
