3. Kyler McMichael

Sticking with cornerbacks, Kyler McMichael also has a chance for a big spring.

McMichael suffered a hamstring injury and has been limited, but he’ll be back out at full-strength sooner rather than later for the Tigers.

McMichael- like Goodrich- is battling for that starting position at the cornerback spot opposite-side of AJ Terrell.

If he wants to win it, he needs to have a big spring.

Why? Because 5-star CB Andrew Booth will on campus soon and McMichael needs to have separated himself.
