Rising second-year player Owen Wafle has entered the transfer portal.
Wafle was listed as a 6’2″, 298 lb. defensive lineman on this year’s roster. He did not play in any games. He was a 4-star, the #50 defensive lineman, and #445 overall in the 247 Composite for the class of 2024. Michigan flipped him from Notre Dame.
I gave Wafle a TTB Rating of 73 when he committed (LINK) and said this:
Wafle is not as athletic as [Maurice] Hurst, more talented than [Brady] Pallante, and perhaps as versatile as [Dan] Klecko. I could see Jim Harbaugh wanting to line Wafle up in the backfield on goal line situations and letting him make a linebacker or two explode.
Linebacker Jeremiah Beasley (Missouri) was the first player to transfer out of Michigan’s 2024 class, and Wafle is now the second.
Wafle’s brother Luke is a 2026 prospect with a Michigan offer, so this development may hurt Michigan’s chances there. The younger Wafle is a 6’5″, 240-pounder and he’s a 4-star, the #28 defensive lineman, and #221 overall.
Name:Â Owen Wafle
Height: 6’2″
Weight:Â 280 lbs.
High school:Â Princeton (NJ) The Hun School
Position:Â Defensive tackle
Class:Â Freshman
Jersey number:Â N/A
Last year:Â Wafle was a senior in high school (LINK). He made 16 tackles and 10 tackles for loss.
TTB Rating:Â 73
Wafle was a flip from Notre Dame and is known for his quickness and versatility. He could play defensive tackle or perhaps defensive end, and I even threw out the idea that he could end up as a fullback. He has a younger brother, Luke, who is a top-200 player being recruited by Michigan as an edge player and a tight end end by various schools for 2026. Versatility is the name of the game in the Wafle household.
Owen Wafle is one of those guys who I could see working his way into playing time as a freshman. If Greg Mattison were still the defensive line coach, I would think Wafle would play early. I’m largely unfamiliar with how new defensive line coach Lou Esposito will rotate and reward his guys, so that’s a question mark. It would be a huge surprise for Wafle to make a big impact in 2024, but he could get a little bit of playing time to prepare him for 2025, when there’s a good chance that both Mason Graham and Kenneth Grant will be in the NFL.
Prediction: Redshirt
2024 PROSPECTS
Gatlin Bair – WR – Burley (ID) Burley: Bair is a 6’2″, 195-pounder who is committed to Boise State, who just fired head coach Andy Avalos. Bair is headed on a two-year Mormon mission after high school, so he will basically end up being a 2026 prospect. Bair is also considering Michigan and Oregon, along with BSU. He’s a 4-star, the #10 WR, and #40 overall. This visit is a possibility, but not set in stone at this point.
Zaquan Patterson – S – Hollywood (FL) Chaminade-Madonna: Patterson is a 6’0″, 185 lb. prospect who is committed to Miami. He’s a teammate of 2025 Michigan commit Chris Ewald. Patterson is a 4-star, the #5 safety, and #70 overall.
