Michigan football is working to fill out its 2025 roster and with nine transfers incoming already (WR Donaven McCulley, DBs Tevis and TJ Metcalf, DT Damon Payne, OL Brady Norton, LB Troy Bowles, QB Mikey Keene, RB Justice Haynes, DT Tré Williams) the Wolverines made a quiet move on a 10th.
Lawrence Hattar was not a big name in the transfer portal, whatsoever. The Livonia, Mich. native has played for Division II Ferris State since 2022, but at 6-foot-5, 335 pounds, he’s a big body at a position of need along the interior offensive line.
And on Sunday, Hattar announced he’s committed to Michigan football.

Hattar played in all 15 games in 2024 and was a D-II All-American. Like Brady Norton, it’s unclear how quickly he sees the field. Nonetheless, the Wolverines are working to build out the roster in preparation for fielding a more competitive team this upcoming season. And given the departures along the offensive line, the maize and blue need all the help they can get.
Update: this column has been changed.
