New UM coach Manny Diaz made clear Wednesday that he will fix the quarterback position, noting “the 800-pound gorilla in the room is you have to play better at quarterback.”
Expect UM to be very aggressive in the transfer market. Four who reportedly plan to transfer or have explored transferring:
u25aa Georgia’s Justin Fields. Reports circulated in December that he was considering transferring, but there’s no indication if he actually will. UM has strong interest. He was rated the No. 2 overall prospect and No. 1 dual-threat quarterback out of the prep ranks in 2018. Ohio State is considered a strong contender.
