Why has the last two weeks felt like 2 months? The portal activity has just been crazy and it seems like it started back in December. I imagine we will see some more movement today, I hope it continues to be positive movement for the Wolverines.
Welcome Back to Ann Arbor, Glad you never left!
- CB Shamari Earls
- DE Nate Marshall
- DE Dominic Nicholas
- LB Nathaniel Owusu-Boateng
- S Rod Moore
- DL Enow Etta (back from the portal)
- TE Zach Marshall
- DL Trey Pierce
These are all important saves to the roster. Enow was getting a ton of interest in the portal and Trey just saw his brother join the team. I believe the new staff is 3-0 in keeping Marshalls on the roster. Fingers crossed its 4-0 with "Marsh" in the last name.
The big news is 5-star athlete Salesi Moa who originally signed with Utah, thought about flipping to Michigan after the coaching change, enrolled at Utah, then jumped into the portal. Will announce his college decision tonight at the Polynesian Bowl. His brother who is in the portal is a former LB at MSU, who has also visited Ann Arbor during this cycle. 👀
There is also some buzz around a 2026 CAL DB Ernest Nunley who just received his release from Cal.
Important Dates: Tonight at 11:59 ET is the deadline for players to request entry into the portal, Sunday Jan. 18, 11:59 p.m. ET is the latest schools can enter players into portal. 1/27 Add/drop date for classes at U of M.
- Michigan Basketball at Oregon on Saturday 4:00 NBC
- Want to feel old? Michigan Basketball has offered Jamal Crawford's son
- Jesse Minter is getting a ton interviews for a head coaching role in NFL. With John off the board, I expect hires to happen pretty quickly now.
- 2 QB's back to their teams that Michigan will see next season: Mateer at OK and Moore at Oregon.

Those Who Stay Will Be Paid, I mean Champions. Wait, everyone is getting paid so never mind.
So why does Salesi Moa have to announce again? Listen, take your money, but why does there have to be another announcement for this kids ego or the parents ego? As a parent I tell my kid you got the Michigan offer and either you say you going there or staying or going to another school that's paying even more.
It kills me, you got to announce you're staying. I blame mom and dad mostly. Telling them every other breath how great they are etc etc... Got to reel them in every now and then....
Announcing they are staying = I got a raise
Yes, shame on the parents and lack of parenting. Yet we can't figure out why these kids can't handle anything and everyone gets a trophy. It's a shame but that's our society.
Voice of Reason, you are correct and it's sad really.
Who's to blame? One word- Internet
Interesting comments from Michigan WR Anthony Simpson today. Called last year's coaching "bullshit" and players didnt get a fair shake in practice. The more I hear about Sherrone, the worse things were.
I see the Chargers are looking for a new offensive coordinator. I wonder if Jimmy gives his boy Sherrone the job?
Appreciate all the above comments. College football has morphed into a multiheaded monster that even Godzilla would have a tough time subduing. After the dust settles, people might lose interest in college football, once all the pride is gone and just money-ball? Stay tuned to this same bat station and bat channel! I still care about Michigan football but loses done hurt at all anymore (no pun intended with Moore). A friend of mine is totally committed to this NIL, portal stuff. I can't take it, does a win mean what it used to be or just who bought the best roster. To hell with it!!! Almost ready to sign off on this shit show.
Not to pick out one person, but Chowman realizes things are crazy, but seems like he try's to still follow it with the new way of things. I try too but can't do it when players are jumping ship to get more money. In 1980 when I went to all the home games, I dreamed of being on that field. Now players are going to highest bidder. I bet Bo would have gone either of two ways, he would have quit outright. Has last but obvious choice would have been
If you want to play for me fine, but no money. hE WOULD OF BEEN RELEASED BUT HE WOULD HAVE KEPT HIS PRICIPLES.
I agree with the losing, it used to ruin my whole weekend. Now I turn off the TV and walk away saying oh well.. Pretty much the same way after a win as well....
I am the same szanreno, I don't get too ruined like I used to. I now enjoy the pro's much better and I never used to. They have rules and college is garbage. Funny as the SEC is not liking the fact that everyone can cheat. They want rules in place which there should be, but they want rules and caps and then they can go back to offering money on top of what's legal.
Again, why isn't Warde fired as this was his hire and it never should've happened even if people want to blame Harbaugh. Harbaugh was not and is not the AD, the AssClown Warde is.
Pretty much. I haven't watch one snap of the CFP. Its trash...I used to tune in for other games to watch teams or players I hated to root against them. now I don't even know players on other teams, let my own team
I saw a news brief where that interview happened?!?
hell, why do current roster players have to "announce" that they are coming back for next year.....shouldn't we assume they are!? Wonder if anyone on the tennis or debate teams need to announce they'll be back next year.
I've heard the same complaints from offensive lineman. Moore absolutely did not know how to lead a team and it spread to his staff. These guys won 9 games this seaon on talent alone...imagine what they could have done with good coaching.
Sherrone said he'd take the job pro bono....as long as they gift him an Only Fans account.
