J.J. McCarthy is a Minnesota Viking. Trading up one spot to get their guy, McCarthy was drafted No. 10 in the first round of the #NFLDraft. Read more: michigandaily.com/sports/footbal…
Last night, I wrote my final SportsMonday column for @theblockm. I wrote about why this place means so much to me, what it did for me these past four years. I wrote about golf, my grandpa and the family I found at The Daily. Thank you all for everything. michigandaily.com/sports/sportsm…
My last story for The Michigan Daily was probably the hardest for me to write, but at the end writing it still made me smile. For each and every @theblockm writer, alumni and reader, thanks for reading all these years and thanks for the support. ❤️ michigandaily.com/sports/sportsm…
Here at Michigan’s Spring Game, and I’m excited to officially announce I’ll be covering @UMichFootball this season for @theblockm alongside @NoahKingsley_, @lysgoldman and @charlie73737 (not pictured unfortunately).
As his junior season approaches, all eyes are on @UMichFootball tight end Colston Loveland as he aims to step up his offensive performance after an outstanding sophomore season. @RekhaLeonard has the details: michigandaily.com/sports/footbal…
News: The Islanders have signed Laurel Hollow, NY native, Marshall Warren to a two-year, entry-level contract that begins in 2024-25. Warren played for Michigan this season after transferring from Boston College.
Marshall Warren is signing with the New York Islanders starting in the 2024-25 season. He played his final college season at Michigan and made an impact on and off the ice. The Islanders are his hometown team.
Inking a three-year deal with the @BlueJacketsNHL, Gavin Brindley is now the third @umichhockey player to move on to the NHL in as many days: michigandaily.com/sports/ice-hoc…
Brindley follows Duke and Nazar, signs contract with @BlueJacketsNHL and leaves @umichhockey.

#BREAKING: Following three seasons with @umichhockey, forward Dylan Duke has signed with @TBLightning. michigandaily.com/sports/ice-hoc…
In its third-straight Frozen Four appearance, @umichhockey got shut out by @BC_MHockey, ending its title hopes. This week’s #SportsMonday cover: Out Cold.
Frank Nazar III just scored his first NHL goal for the @NHLBlackhawks, about halfway through the first period. This is his first NHL game since he left @umichhockey yesterday.
First @umichhockey player to turn pro this year. Michigan coach Brandon Naurato seemed pretty confident a number of guys were coming back, but Nazar will not be one of them.

Beyond thankful for the past six months covering @umichhockey with three of the most incredible women I’ve ever met — @RekhaLeonard, @annamillerpdx, and @Ellie220066. It’s truly been an honor! I’ll never forget this season and the amazing memories we made. 🧵
Jacob Fowler became a brick wall last night, but Jake Barczewski wasn’t afforded the same opportunity. As the Wolverines fell short in front of him, Barczewski couldn’t stand on his head to keep them in it. My final story on @theblockm hockey beat: michigandaily.com/sports/ice-hoc…
Boston College entered the Frozen Four as the top team in college hockey and it proved why last night, soaring above Michigan 4-0 in the biggest game of the year. My final hockey beat story for the @theblockm michigandaily.com/sports/ice-hoc…
After Michigan’s third straight Frozen Four loss, this pattern of semifinal losses is concerning. But coach Brandon Naurato has been there every time, and is still building his program. My column, and final hockey beat story for @theblockm: michigandaily.com/sports/ice-hoc…
Ironically, my final story on the Michigan hockey beat is about Boston College. The Eagles’ young studs came to play, and the Wolverines couldn’t keep up. For @theblockm: michigandaily.com/sports/ice-hoc…
Marshall Warren hugging some of his former teammates in the handshake line.
Michigan’s season ends at the hand of Boston College, 4-0. This is the first time Michigan has been shutout in the Frozen Four in program history. A dramatic postseason run for the Wolverines, but BC was clearly the better team.

This is the first time in modern draft history that @UMichFootball has seven players drafted in the first three rounds of the #NFLDraft.
The second Wolverine to get drafted back-to-back in the #NFLDraft following a former teammate, Roman Wilson is headed to Pittsburgh for his next adventure as a Steeler: michigandaily.com/sports/footbal…
With the No. 49 overall pick in the #NFLdraft, the Cincinnati Bengals selected Michigan defensive tackle Kris Jenkins. He’ll join fellow Wolverines Dax Hill, DJ Turner, Chris Evans and Brad Robbins in Cincy. michigandaily.com/sports/footbal…
.#BREAKING: With the 50th overall pick in the @NFL Draft, former @UMichFootball cornerback Mike Sainristil has been selected by @Commanders. michigandaily.com/sports/footbal…
Only one pick after the Bengals took his teammate Kris Jenkins, the Washington Commanders selected Mike Sainristil with the 50th pick of the #NFLDraft . More on the receiver-turned-cornerback: michigandaily.com/sports/footbal…
Gonna be crazy when he hits like 7 PATs against his former team in Week 3

Best story I’ve ever written was on how J.J. McCarthy honored a lost friend before Michigan played UNLV. Great to see J.J. go to the Vikings and chase his NFL dreams. Vikings fans, read this to learn about the great young man you just got: michigandaily.com/sports/footbal…
Excited to be in Detroit tonight for the NFL Draft! J.J. McCarthy might not be here, but don’t worry — @theblockm football beat is. Stay tuned!
