Michigan LB Cornell Wheeler enters transfer portal

Michigan Wolverines linebacker Cornell Wheeler has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal, according to multiple media reports. Wheeler did not see game action during his true freshman season with the team in 2020.

Wheeler, a three-star prospect out of West Bloomfield, Michigan, was the No. 471 player and 22nd-ranked linebacker in the 2020 class. He committed to the program on Sept. 25, 2018, and signed his letter of intent with the program in Dec. 2019.

Given the free year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Wheeler has four years of eligibility remaining wherever he decides to transfer.
