Michigan football targeting former 5-star safety in transfer portal

It feels like Michigan football is getting more active in the transfer portal. This is likely since they don’t have to focus on player retention.

Players can’t enter the transfer portal anymore, but they can be added from the portal. And Michigan football is looking to make additions at a few key positions.

The Wolverines have already added two wide receivers in the past week. They also landed a veteran kicker, who should be an immediate upgrade.

But there are still needs to address in the secondary, and on the defensive line. Heck, you could make a case for offensive tackle and quarterback too, but those positions are hard to fill in the transfer portal right now.

If Michigan football wanted a quarterback, it needed one in the winter. But it was playing for a national title. However, they can still add to the roster and Jacoby Mathews, a former five-star safety who left Texas A&M is among the current targets.
