Michigan basketball has three NCAA transfer portal commitments, and the program has announced that two of them have officially signed. The Wolverines announced the additions of point guard Elliot Cadeau (North Carolina) and forward Morez Johnson Jr. (Illinois). UAB forward transfer Yaxel Lendeborg is a pledge but still going through the NBA Draft process. He has until May 28 at 11:59 p.m. ET to withdraw and return to college.

A look at Michigan’s announcement on Johnson.

Forward T.J. Hughes will return to Michigan for his senior season. Hughes posted 36 points in 39 games last season and has tallied 122 for his career.

Former Michigan guard Frankie Collins will play at Vanderbilt next season. This will be his fourth school, after beginning at U-M (2021-22), transferring to Arizona State (2022-24) and playing this past season at TCU (2024-25). He also played at three high schools, so this will be his seventh school in nine years.

A look at the medallions that members of the Michigan football program have received for last season’s 13-10 win over Ohio State Nov. 30. The Wolverines have now won four straight games against the Buckeyes. OSU hasn’t beaten U-M since 2019.

Quote Of The Day

“Coach (Grant) Newsome broke down a bunch of film with Carter from this past season, which was super cool to see. I’m not super aware of the technical nuances, so for me, it was super cool to watch them do that. There are a lot of technicalities that go into being an offensive linemen. Coach Newsome would point out some of the things Carter needed to do better, and Carter would say ‘oh yeah, I’m working on that this offseason.’ All the work Carter is putting in this offseason is paying off. We didn’t have a full sit down meeting with Coach (Sherrone) Moore. We saw him at the bowling event they had. We just chatted with him for a brief bit. But I really like Coach Moore. He’s really laid back and a nice guy.”
