Michigan Wolverines Football Lands T.E. World-Class Commitment Out of Transfer Porta
In a move that sent shockwaves through college football, the Michigan Wolverines secured the commitment of world-class tight end Caleb Stone out of the transfer portal. The 6’5″, 245-pound standout had been the hottest commodity in the portal this offseason after a dominant year at his previous school, where he racked up 850 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns.
The announcement came late on a Friday afternoon, when Caleb posted a video on social media. In the clip, he stood on the famed Michigan Stadium field, clad in maize and blue, and declared, “There’s only one place I want to finish what I started — Go Blue!”
Stone had originally begun his career at a small Power 5 school but quickly outgrew the program with his rare combination of size, speed, and hands. Coaches across the country salivated at the idea of adding him to their rosters, but Michigan’s head coach, Sherrone Moore, spearheaded the recruitment. Moore met with Caleb’s family, emphasizing the Wolverines’ history of tight end success and their championship aspirations.
“Caleb isn’t just a big-time player, he’s a big-time person,” Moore said at the press conference. “He’s the kind of guy who makes us better on and off the field.”
Stone’s addition is expected to bolster Michigan’s already potent offense. Analysts have compared him to NFL greats, calling him a “matchup nightmare” and a “safety valve every quarterback dreams of.” Quarterback J.J. McCarthy, eager to connect with his new weapon, added, “Having Caleb here is huge. He’s a game-changer. We’re building something special.”
For Michigan fans, this commitment feels like another piece of the puzzle as the Wolverines chase a national championship. As one fan wrote online, “Caleb Stone is the missing link. We’re all in
. Go Blue!”
