A former SEC hurler is headed to Tiger Town.

Former Tennessee pitcher Michael Sharman is transferring to Clemson. He announced his commitment to the Tigers on Saturday via Instagram.

The 6-foot-1, 198-pound lefthander spent his first two seasons at a pair of junior colleges – Parkland (2023) and Georgia Highlands (2024) — before playing at Tennessee in 2025.

Sharman posted a 3-1 record and 3.18 ERA across 17 appearances (three starts) for the Volunteers as a redshirt junior last season. In 22.2 innings pitched, he allowed 19 hits, 10 walks and just one home run while striking out 25 batters.

Sharman is a product of Etowah High School in Woodstock, Georgia, where he collected multiple All-Tournament Team honors and garnered All-Region and All-State honors his junior year.
