Former blue-chip prospect Aaron Willis has found a new home after entering the transfer portal several weeks ago. The reserve linebacker failed to find playing time in 2021, basically limited to special teams duties only. With three years of eligibility remaining, Willis will now head to Houston.
Willis was one of the top rated players in Tennessee’s 2021 recruiting class, a group that has now completely fallen apart since the messy exit of Jeremy Pruitt. Dylan Brooks, Kaemen Marley, Kaidon Salter, Julian Nixon, Tiyon Evans, Trinity Bell and Isaac Washington have all left the program, and now Willis officially exits.
