Well, so much for that.
It appeared that Michigan basketball was truly reloading this offseason with a bevy of incoming transfers. The Wolverines were bringing in a trio of talented transfers with former five-star point guard Caleb Love, former four-star combo guard Nimari Burnett, and former Seton Hall standout Tray Jackson.
But now the maize and blue are down one.
Per On3’s Joe Tipton, Love, the prized transfer commit this cycle, won’t actually be suiting up for the Wolverines after all. As rumored — and subsequently squashed by Love weeks ago — he is decommitting from the maize and blue after all.
NEWS: Former North Carolina guard Caleb Love has decommitted from Michigan, a source tells @On3sports.
One of the top guard transfers is now back on the board.

Michigan basketball does still have Dug McDaniel, who started much of last year, as well as former transfer Jaelin Llewelyn — who was injured — coming back at the point guard position, so it’s not a total loss.
