Michigan hosted two known transfer portal visitors this week in Wake Forest wide receiver Jahmal Banks and Northwestern DB Rod Heard and, as to be expected, the Wolverines did very well with both.
I posted yesterday that I felt comfortable saying right now that the Wolverines are the team to beat for Heard and, after talking to those in Detroit circle, they too feel as if the Wolverines are in a really good spot coming out of the visit. One such person I spoke with said the Wolverines were a 'lock' for Heard but, with the way these things go sometimes, I'm not ready to go that far yet. He shouldn't be too far away from making a decision and the staff feel good with what they were able to do during the visit.
As for Banks, he had a strong visit himself. Where the Wolverines stand currently is a bit of an unknown to me as I am still waiting on getting some key messages back regarding that but what I can say is that he thoroughly enjoyed his visit and spent some quality time with the team. What resonated the most with him is the Wolverines' commitment to winning. Still trying to figure out what his timeline looks like moving forward but I expect the Wolverines to be a contender.
More when I have it.
