I want to thank Coach Harbaugh for giving me that opportunity to come play for a program with lots of tradition. I have bonds with my brothers that will last forever, I have decided to enter the transfer portal As a Grad transfer with three years of eligibility. pic.twitter.com/PeANE2vWmD

Milton started the season as Michigan’s man under center, and he looked damn good against Minnesota and Michigan.
However, the Wolverines lost some games, Milton was benched during a blowout against Wisconsin and he’s now on his way out the door.
Seeing as how Milton has three years of eligibility remaining and is a physical freak of nature, he will have plenty of suitors.
A lot of guys transferring are struggling to find homes, but I can promise you that Milton won’t be one of them.
He has a huge arm and is a physical monster. It didn’t work out in Ann Arbor, but lots of P5 schools will do their due diligence.
We’ll see where he lands, but I 100% expect it to be at a P5 school.
