Tennessee football: Vols DL Aubrey Solomon granted eligibility waiver

After eight months of waiting, Tennessee football finally has an answer for a key part of its team this year. Defensive lineman Aubrey Solomon, who transferred from the Michigan Wolverines, will be able to play.

Solomon had been waiting for an eligibility waiver from the NCAA. Austin Price of VolQuest reported Tuesday that Jeremy Pruitt finally got his answer. Solomon, who is listed as one of the potential starters on the line against the Georgia State Panthers in the first depth chart, will be able to go.

It’s impossible to understate how big of a deal this is for Tennessee football.
