Michigan football has been in search of a potential starting offensive tackle via the transfer portal to replace left tackle Myles Hinton. But the options have been limited and the pot thinning.

Standing at 6-foot-8, 320-pounds, Pete would be the type of lineman Michigan goes after. He is a former first-team All-Confer

The transfer portal is supposedly closed for teams not in the national championship game, but don’t tell many out there in college football. That’s because many are still entering, and apparently Michigan football isn’t immune.

The Michigan football team received some good news on Wednesday as offensive lineman Giovanni El-Hadi announced that he will return to the Wolverines for a fifth year.
