Kansas defense

Over the summer, some Kansas linebacker transferred to North Dakota or someplace because he and his wife wanted to pursue a different academic degree, or something like that. Does anyone know who he was?I think he was their leading tackler last year.
More importantly, does anyone know who's replacing him in the Kansas defense? If he was their stud middle linebacker, does that mean we now try to run up the gut on them?
