3 FAU players (Goldin, Boyd, Rosado) enter portal
Per the internets 3 FAU rotation players entered the portal in guard Nick Boyd, big man Giancarlo Rosado, and Vladislav Goldin. All are grad transfers and Boyd has two years of eligibility left. Indications are that more may follow:

Also, if you want to nerd out Davis Moseley of 247 sports who's a great follow put together an early Google Sheet of players that have interest in Michigan.

I decided to enter the portal too.
I’m taking my talents to the family room couch
I will consider offers from the recliner, and the bed as well.
I will respect your decision.
Come play for me. My NIL package is strong-wear a sandwich board for 10 hours a week and you’ll have $100 (pre tax) to spend every single week .
Stop peddling that transactional bull$hit, Dave. If the transformation that comes with wearing a sandwich board isn't enough for them, then we don't want them.
I will give you a cold corned beef sandwich on buttered rye bread with baby swiss & mustard, & you will eat it, & you will like it!
Yuck...
Head cheese on sourdough for you.
New sign-gate accusations.
Goldin is a guy we really need and I want. Boyd is a redshirt junior so with admissions don't know if we can get him.
Boyd is graduating and will be a grad transfer. His first year was the covid-shirt and his second year was a true red-shirt. He has been in college for four years.
The redshirt means he was in school four years, yo.
A lot of athletes are utilizing the summer classes to graduate in three years too.
gee, can anyone think, guess, surmise, speculate on just where they may pop out of the portal? any school(s) that they may have an interest in, that they may be looking at, where they may know the coach?
Hang tight Timberlake. April just started. But in 30 days….
You may be right..,
I may be crazy
but it just might be a lunatic you're looking for
Turn out the light. Don't try to save me.
You may be wrong for all I know but
The possibility exists that you are factually correct.
On the other hand
You might think I'm delirious
Maybe I do, and Maybe I don't.
I am having a hard time reading your question, it's very dusty right now. I may be able to answer you soon.
i am in dismay at the mayhem done with my puns. mayhaps i should stop.
If you can go back and capitalize all the mays in that comment and leave the other words uncapitalized you'd really set off the grammar nazis here. I'd stir the pot. lol
Top notch post!
Interesting that Maddox for Illinois is listed as hot regarding Michigan interest. Is he any good?
2nd team All-MAC at Toledo last year. Averaged 15 ppg and is ~40% from three. We’re desperate for guards right now so would definitely be a welcomed addition.
Just to clarify, Illinois is his home state, not his college
Ha. Thats probably why I didn't know who he was. Do we want him?
Have you seen our roster? We need 12 people with limbs at this point.
I think we have 5 scholarships accounted for: Burnett, TWill, Chedder, Jace, PhatPhat. Perhaps further defections from that group?
I would imagine pursuing big men transfers would push Cheddar and/or TWill to the portal. I imagined Jace would have hit the portal for the simple awkwardness of playing for the guy who replaced your dad, but he’s still here so who knows.
Burnett still has a role here regardless of portal additions and Brooks is a developmental guy anyway.
Hey now! Last month, pre-May, MGrowOld, MeanJoe, and I agreed to play. And Wendy jumped on board a couple weeks ago touting her jump shot. We all have limbs!
Let's get it! Come on Martin and Davis.
Let’s get busy.
I'll eat crow, this morning I was saying it was telling they hadn't entered yet. Wonder if more will follow.
Honestly I'd prefer Wolf to Goldin but doubt May thinks the same.
Then let's get both.
Yeah you’re just flat out not going to get two starting centers out of the portal.
I haven't seen the FAU center's tape but I think Wolf could definitely play the 4.
In a traditional lineup maybe. Based on what May likes to run, I don’t really see it. More likely we try and run with three guards, a wing and a big instead of two 7 footers.
Wolf most likely will be a backup C, not a starter. He nearly walked on to Michigan before committing to Yale. Wolf is not a 4. He's not athletic enough to be a 4 regardless and especially in May's system.
Yale? Will his credits transfer to the Harvard of the West?
Legit question, I think...
They aren't the same class, so maybe it's possible. Also possible we get neither, I suppose.
They’re both established starters with interest from power programs. You’re not getting one of them to come here and come off the bench. It’s just not realistic.
I thought I heard Wolf can play the 4.
The word is Wolf is content being a backup C at Michigan if he wants to play at Michigan. He almost went to Michigan as a walk-on.
