And let's get into it, fellas.

We got some stuff to talk about.

We'll get to some NIL developments in a little bit.

We will start with Ernest Hausman from Nebraska, who will be transferring to Michigan,

chose the Wolverines over Ohio State and Iowa.

He was originally recruited from Michigan or by Michigan during his original recruitment back in 2020.

The Wolverines put in some effort there, weren't able to land him from hometown, Nebraska.

He's from Columbus, Nebraska. He's from Columbus, Nebraska. As a kid from Uganda originally, has a really similar story to

Junior Colson, was adopted by a family, was brought in, and is a hell of a football player,

just like Junior Colson, is a hell of a linebacker as well. 54 tackles, two tackles for

loss, one sack, one fulble recovery this season, seven starts. He's playing behind a couple guys. There were injuries there, so he got some early opportunity. And he really shined. And going back, looking at the Michigan game, he made some big plays in that game, including a tackle for loss on J.J. McCarthy when he was trying to scramble. I wish we could play that clip without getting copyrighted on the YouTube.

But it's a really good play.

So fellas, a big land for Michigan, and between him and Lidarius Henderson, the former

offensive linemen for Arizona State, who's coming to Michigan and enrolling early, Wolverines

with a hot start in the transfer portal world. This is what you're doing well, right? On the recruiting trail is NIL. You look at Olu, you look at IAbi, Olu Olu-A-Timi at the center. You look at Yogi. You look at this year now of Laderius. This guy, by the way, is a complete leader from everybody. We've spoken with great article by Clayton Safey about him and who he is.

And now, Ernest Hausman.

And you know what?
