Almost exactly 18 months ago, Wayne Kirby of Highland High School in Pocatello, Idaho committed to play football at BYU, telling the Idaho State Journal it's where his father, who had passed away a month previous, would want him to go.
The 6-foot-3, 315-pound defensive lineman's recruitment gained steam over the next few months, however, and he ultimately signed with the University of Oregon last February.
Fast forward to 2017, and Kirby will be transferring from Eugene to the Provo school, he announced on Twitter Monday afternoon.
I love everyone that has been on this ride with me, I'll miss you.
