Michigan adds grad-transfer DE Eyabi Anoma, a former 5-star recruit

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. 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.
