It was a big win for Michigan football when it managed to reel in an in-state four-star who was thought to be the center of the future. However, it just hasn’t worked out for Detroit (Mich.) Cass Tech interior offensive lineman Raheem Anderson.
The battle was supposed to be between Anderson and Greg Crippen, but then the Wolverines brought in a bevy of transfers — Olu Oluwatimi and Drake Nugent — before the battle became between Crippen and converted defensive lineman Dominick Giudice.
On Wednesday, Anderson announced that he would be heading elsewhere to continue his career as he was entering the transfer portal.

Anderson was the player who carried the Michigan flag from the north end zone at Ohio Stadium to the Block O at midfield on Saturday.
He played 98 snaps in 2024, two in 2023, 57 in 2022, and 11 in his freshman season of 2021. He will have one year of eligibility remaining at his school of choice.
