The transfer portal has changed the dynamic of college football. No longer are teams forced to rebuild their program using solely recruits and development. Now, teams such as Ole Miss can end up in a New Year’s Six bowl with 16 of their 22 starters beginning their college careers elsewhere. Crazy stuff.
Michigan has done a great job of developing players recently, but that doesn’t mean the staff will not look to the portal to fill gaps that may pop up with players leaving for the NFL or the portal themselves.
I have put together a list of five players that top my portal wish list. These names are not based on rumors, but rather where I see the best combination of talent and need.
