After Michigan football managed to secure Bryce Underwood, things were bound to change in Ann Arbor.
Following the 13-10 win over Ohio State, Sherrone Moore fired offensive coordinator Kirk Campbell, and rumors swirled that the Wolverines would go after former Florida head coach Dan Mullen. At the same time, quarterback Alex Orji entered the transfer portal, depleting the maize and blue’s depth at the position.
Well, one Michigan football QB will be playing for Mullen.
Mullen ended up accepting the UNLV head coaching post, and Orji — who stayed with the Wolverines through the bowl game — ended up joining him by committing to the Rebels.

Orji ended up starting three games for the Wolverines and helped lead Michigan to wins over USC, Minnesota, and came in relief in the second half of the ReliaQuest Bowl win against Alabama.
This past year was the first chance Orji had to start. He’ll have two years of eligibility remaining in Las Vegas.
