Michigan has added graduate transfer Eyabi Anoma, a top-rated defensive end coming out of high school in 2018 who has been at Alabama, then Houston and Tennessee-Martin.
Anoma’s name appeared in the University of Michigan directory as a student in the School of Social Work on Wednesday, and his status as a graduate transfer was confirmed to The Detroit News early Thursday by Michigan football spokesman Dave Ablauf. It is unclear whether Anoma will be immediately eligible for the Wolverines, whose season opens Sept. 3 against Colorado State.
He was a five-star recruit out of St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, a school that has produced several current Michigan players, including running back Blake Corum and linebacker Nikhai Hill-Green.
