Transfers Report: Michigan will land a transfer portal receiver

Wide receiver for Michigan has potential.

Last season, Tyler Morris and Semaj Morgan saved the day in crucial situations. On Saturday, Michigan’s spring game featured touchdowns from Kendrick Bell and Fredrick Moore. And then there’s Peyton O’Leary, who hasn’t seen the field much during the season despite playing well in the previous two spring games. But with the transfers of Darrius Clemons, Karmello English, Cristian Dixon, and Eamonn Dennis this offseason, they have diminished in depth.

Although offensive coordinator Kirk Campbell said on Saturday that Michigan is happy with their receiver options, he also acknowledged that the position still needs more depth. It appears that Michigan will be focusing on the receiver position through the transfer portal this month.

“We have some very exciting guys.” “It’s a very spacious room,” Campbell remarked. “Some guys need to help out there,” I said. We’ll most likely take a look at a few men in that role. I’m not sure how many.

The portal gives no indication as to which receivers Michigan might target. The portal will close on April 30 after opening on April 16. Michigan has a little more than a week to use the portal to add players to their 2024 roster. With an eye toward the future and an understanding that football injuries are unavoidable, Campbell wants to ensure that Michigan does not find itself shorthanded at wide receiver.

“You look at the depth of our roster, we simply don’t have enough guys. Quad injuries and hamstring strains are inevitable. All we need to do is make sure we have enough players on the roster.

Receiver Fredrick Moore agrees with Campbell that more receivers would help Michigan, stating that “the depth is a light right now.”

Moore remarked, “I think we can get some help.” “Coaches want us to get help, I know that.”

Although Moore says the depth is light, he believes that the receivers currently on the roster can get the job done in their own right.

But we’re still powerful. We don’t have that many numbers, but we are still strong,” Moore said. “We still have guys who gonna step up and do their job. But it’s tough.”

We’ll know in the very near future what Michigan’s receiver room is going to look like for the upcoming season, and it would be a shock at this point if the program didn’t add a receiver or two in the next week.
