Michigan football lands one of the nation's top centers via transfer portal

Michigan football's positive momentum continued Monday when it added one of the nation's top offensive linemen via the NCAA transfer portal.

Olusegun "Victor" Oluwatimi, who spent the last four seasons at Virginia, announced on his Twitter account he committed to Wolverines in advance of the 2022 season.

This year, the 6-foot-3, 310-pound Oluwatimi was one of three finalists for the Rimington Award, which is given to the country's best center. He started the last 32 games with the Cavaliers and distinguished himself as a skilled run blocker. Pro Football Focus rated him the second-best at that discipline among all players at his position.
