The #Lions are expected to hire Michigan assistant director of personnel John Collins as a scouting assistant, a source tells @CBSSports.

Dusty May is rumored to have left Michigan due to reading a report on the Wolverine’s athletic program following an investigation conducted by a Chicago law firm. The reports release is expected to be imminent.
Michigan hired Jenner & Block in November 2025 after an alleged tip football HC Sherrone Moore was involved romantically with a support staffer. As of March 2026 the firm had billed the university over $11.5 million, with April’s costs yet to be released.
Another key point of the investigation involves Michigan Regent (trustee) Jordan Acker. Acker is alleged to have “sent lewd text messages about a Democratic strategist and a female UM student, which included her picture.”
The main reason given behind the broad scope of the investigation is the culture around Michigan football, including former assistant Matt Weiss being arrested by the FBI for stealing over 3000 photos of student athletes by hacking into personal accounts.
The university confirmed in late April they had hired another firm: Weil, Gotshal & Manges. No further details were given.
This athletic department, despite success across various sports, has been somewhat of a dumpster fire for years now. What do you think about Michigan?
