Newsstand: Nine schools make contact with Michigan transfer Frankie Collins
Michigan point guard Frankie Collins shared some shocking news over the weekend when it was revealed he would enter the transfer portal. The addition of Princeton’s Jaelin Llewellyn opened up the door for this, but it still caught plenty off guard.

On3’s Joe Tipton tweeted on Sunday that nine teams have made contact with Collins. The schools in clude Arizona State, Texas A&M, Wichita State, Murray State, Seton Hall, BYU, Grand Canyon, Vanderbilt, and Tennessee. Collins was rated as a four-star recruit and the No. 47 overall player in the 2021 class, according to the On3 Consensus Rankings.
Collins averaged 2.8 points per game at Michigan this past season, playing the primary backup role to point guard DeVante’ Jones. His offense came and went throughout the season, shooting 42.7% from the floor and 16.7% from three. His statline also included 1.4 assists and 1.1 turnovers per game.
Collins is the second member of Michigan’s backcourt to transfer in 2022, joining 2020 signee Zeb Jackson. Forward Brandon Johns also transferred this offseason. Both he and Jackson are set to play 2022-23 at VCU.

Michigan quote of the day
“It comes down to what I tell myself, it’s the same thing I try to tell the players: ‘Hey, you’re valuable; you’re good. Keep doing you.’ I know that’s what I’m gonna do — I know who I am. I’m gonna keep doing me; it’s working. You keep doing you; it’s working.
“And if you want to get a little better at something, just work a little harder. I tell myself, ‘If I want to get a little better at something, I can just work a little harder at it.’ And then last but not least, just don’t fall into the trap of getting the big head.
“Everybody here is, hey, we’re together in this. You’re good, you’re valuable. I wake up every day trying to rise up to the competence of everybody else, showing them I can contribute. That’s what motivates me to be a part of this great team.”
