Ex-Michigan G Jace Howard, son of Juwan, commits to Fordham
April 30 - Former Michigan guard Jace Howard announced Tuesday night that he is transferring to Fordham.
Howard is the son of former Michigan star player and former coach Juwan Howard.
"Let's get it @FordhamMBB !!! Time to work," Howard said on social media in reference to the Atlantic 10 program.
Howard reportedly is in the process of landing another season of eligibility. He played in just five games for Michigan last season under new coach Dusty May after sticking with the program despite his father being dismissed.
Howard played in 70 games as a reserve for Michigan, 65 of them during his father's coaching tenure. He had 95 points and 61 rebounds for the Wolverines.
Howard's younger brother, Jett, played the 2022-23 season at Michigan before being a first-round pick (11th overall) of the Magic in the 2023 draft. Jett Howard is completing his second season with Orlando.

Detroit Lions star Amon-Ra St. Brown announces concerning injury news
After earning first-team All-Pro honors last season, the beginning of the 2025 campaign will be starting a little later than expected for Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. Following practice on Thursday, St. Brown revealed that he has not been participating in the team's offseason practices due to a knee surgery he is recovering from. St. Brown told reporters that he's been rehabbing since going under the knife, but believes he should be good to go when training camp gets into full swing in late July. 'I had a surgery on my knee after the season just to clean some stuff up, so I've been rehabbing that, but I should be good to go for training camp,' St. Brown told reporters. The 25-year-old St. Brown has become one of the most reliable and high-production receivers in the NHL since breaking into the league in 2021 out of USC. Detroit snagged him in the fourth round of that year's NFL Draft and has cracked at least 900 receiving yards in all four of his pro seasons. St. Brown earned first-team All-Pro honors and set a career-high in receiving touchdowns Last year, he led the team in receiving yards (1,263), receptions (115), and hit a career-high for receiving touchdowns (12). Detroit had one of the best seasons in franchise history in 2024, but fell short of a deep playoff run. 'At this point, we want to win a Super Bowl; that's it,' St. Brown said. 'Obviously, we've got to make the playoffs to win the Super Bowl, but that's understood by everyone, so, we want to win the Super Bowl. Plain and simple.' The Lions won 15 games and captured a second consecutive NFC North title. Detroit's offense is set to look different in 2025 after the departure of free agents Allen Robinson and Kevin Zeitler as well as the retirement of Frank Ragnow.

Lions LB Malcolm Rodriguez (knee) out until November
June 5 - Detroit Lions linebacker Malcolm Rodriguez will not return from his knee injury until November, head coach Dan Campbell said Thursday. "He's not going to be starting the season out," Campbell said when asked about a timetable for Rodriguez, who tore his right ACL in last year's Thanksgiving game. "Conservatively? November. ... Yeah, that's probably the best way to say it. Probably November. Somewhere in there." Rodriguez, 26, recorded 43 tackles and 2.0 sacks in 10 games (six starts) before sustaining the season-ending injury in Detroit's 23-20 holiday victory over the rival Chicago Bears in Week 13. The 2022 sixth-round draft pick has tallied 151 tackles, 3.0 sacks, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 43 career games (24 starts) for the Lions. --Field Level Media

Report: Lions signing OL Trystan Colon following Frank Ragnow's retirement
June 4 - The Detroit Lions' search for a replacement for retired All-Pro center Frank Ragnow now includes veteran Trystan Colon, according to an NFL Network report on Wednesday. Colon, formerly known at Colon-Castillo, is signing a one-year contract, per the report. He played in all 17 games last season for the Arizona Cardinals and made a career-high seven starts at right guard. The 27-year-old played center for the Baltimore Ravens and made four starts from 2020-22, then 11 starts at right guard for Arizona in 2023 and 2024. He has played in 51 games and started 15. He became a free agent on March 11. Ragnow, 29, announced in a post to social media on Monday that he is retiring after seven NFL seasons. A first-round pick out of Arkansas and a key cog on one of the best offensive lines in the NFL, Ragnow was named second-team All-Pro last season and made the Pro Bowl four times. He started all 96 regular-season games and four postseason games he played from 2018-24 but has dealt with numerous injuries. Tate Ratledge stepped into Ragnow's starting role during offseason workouts. He's a converted guard who started three seasons as a right guard for Georgia. If the Lions decide the rookie second-round pick isn't ready, left guard Graham Glasgow has started at center and could slide to that position. --Field Level Media
