Virginia talking to gattis
Apparently Bronco Mendenhall is resigning from UVA...

Seems like the perfect Gattis job. Similar academics to Michigan, so he's familiar with compliance requirements. He's an excellent recruiter from Durham and attended Wake Forest, so that should help them recruit regionally. Moorhead is his mentor but he's married those concepts with Harbaugh's manball which is a credit to his offensive mind and should mitigate transition costs.

I'll be contacting UVA concerning my finder's fee.

Wah-Hoo-Wah.

Tony Elliott would also be an inspiring choice.

Tony Elliot is going to UVA
Good. I know Duke is open, and he's from Durham, but I think this means Gattis stays for another year. Duke isn't a good football job even if the ACC is a garbage conference. I hope he doesn't take career advice from Joe Moorhead, that dude loves taking bad HC jobs.



Watch Gattis take the Duke job now.:francis:

The Michigan Insider has learned the Wolverines will be hosting a pair of visitors from the transfer portal this weekend in former Arizona State running back DeaMonte Trayanum and former Virginia center Victor Oluwatimi.



Our own Sam Webb reported a week ago, Michigan pursuing Trayanum as a portal target to help fill the void next year's roster and a potential candidate to fill Hassan Haskins' role once he graduates.



In two seasons at Arizona State, Trayanum rushed for 290 yards and scored four touchdowns in the four games of his freshman campaign. For his sophomore campaign, he missed some time due to injury, but still rushed for 402 yards and scored six touchdowns in nine games.



As for Oluwatimi, he enters the transfer portal as a grad transfer following the news of Cavaliers headman Bronco Mendenhall departure. He started all 12 games for Virginia in 2021 and has started 32 straight games for the Cavaliers in his career. This past season, he was named one of three finalists for the Rimington Trophy, which is awarded to the most outstanding center in college football.

A top 3 Center?:feedme:

Definitely want Onu.. but Trayanum? Film left me 'meh' and I think Dunlap can do what he does. Dunlap also could use this year as a redshirt since he only appeared in 2 games.
