Stanford transfer OL Drake Nugent commits to Michigan

Jim Harbaugh and the Michigan Wolverines landed a second offensive lineman from Stanford in the transfer portal, as Drake Nugent has announced his intentions to transfer to Ann Arbor.

The 6-foot-1, 300-pounder has been the starter at center for the Cardinal since last year, starting all 12 games there for Stanford. He also started all 12 games in 2022 and was named to the watch list for both the Rimington and Outland awards. Another Michigan transfer center, Olu Oluwatimi, won both those awards.

A three-star recruit in the 2019 class, Nugent held other offers from Arizona State, Louisville, Oklahoma State, Utah and others.
