Right now, the Wolverines only have one player in the transfer portal: running back CJ Stokes, a sophomore. That said, this week, the Michigan football transfer made a key announcement, stating that he will be staying with the team through the College Football Playoff, which will start with a Rose Bowl matchup against Alabama on January 1.
Michigan football transfer CJ Stokes will remain with team through College Football Playoff
Michigan football is about to face Alabama in the Rose Bowl game for a shot at the national title game — it marks the Wolverines’ third straight College Football Playoff appearance, though the team remains winless in bowl games since Jim Harbaugh’s first season as head coach.
While CJ Stokes, a promising sophomore running back, remains in the transfer portal right now, he announced on Wednesday that he will remain a Wolverine through the College Football Playoff. He is not a stater for Michigan football, though every now and then, he comes in as a key depth piece; in fact, in 2022, Michigan football gave Stokes plenty of carries when Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards were both battling injuries late in the year.
Right now, Stokes has only announced one college transfer portal offer: from the Indiana Hoosiers. That said, seeing as Stokes has proven himself to be a very reliable threat, we are sure that more major offers will roll in once bowl season comes to an end.
