Reports: Michigan Wolverines Ahead of Rivals to Snatch a talented transfer wide receiver from…See Details
Former Indiana receiver Donaven McCulley is officially in the transfer portal after announcing last week that he was going to redshirt for the rest of the season and look to transfer.
247Sports reported that McCulley has heard from over a dozen schools since he entered the transfer portal, including the Michigan Wolverines.
Michigan was named alongside Alabama, Ole Miss, Missouri, Cincinnati, Miami, and Colorado. Other schools were Maryland, Baylor, Michigan State, UCLA, UCF, Houston, Cal, SMU, and Virginia Tech. Funnily enough, the Wolverines were also involved with McCulley when he initially portaled at the end of last season before sticking around in Bloomington.
McCulley hasn’t been a big producer in new head coach Curt Cignetti’s offense (which might be a red flag, given how well that offense has performed), but he has been productive throughout his Hoosiers’ career.
A former quarterback turned wide receiver, McCulley has caught 66 passes for 834 yards and eight touchdowns in his career. He brings some good size with him as well, at 6’5, 203 pounds.
It makes sense why Michigan is interested. Their leading wide receiver, Semaj Morgan, has 13 catches for 78 yards and one touchdown on the season. While part of that is quarterback play, nobody has emerged as a reliable option out of their receiver room.
