ANN ARBOR -- When a program loses two players to transfer in three days, as the Michigan men's basketball team did this week, it's fair to wonder if something is wrong.
For a team that achieved so much on the court and spoke of being so "connected" off of it, why the spate of departures? Transfers are simply the reality of college basketball, at Michigan and most everywhere else.
VerbalCommits.com counts 884 Division I men's basketball transfers in 2017. NCAA data shows that 13 percent of DI men's basketball players end up transferring.
