Eyabi Okie's nomadic college career is expected to take another turn after the Michigan football edge defender entered the transfer portal Thursday.
Okie, a former five-star recruit in the 2018 class, joined the Wolverines in August as a surprise addition following a peripatetic journey that included stops at three other schools and a sudden descent toward obscurity that left him at Tennessee-Martin.
Undeterred by a checkered past that included a dismissal from Alabama and his subsequent removal from the University of Houston's football team, U-M welcomed Okie while expressing optimism that he could amplify a pass rush no longer propped up by stars Aidan Hutchinson and David Ojabo.
