Houston quarterback John O'Korn announced he's transferring to Michigan on his Twitter page on Thursday.

O'Korn threw for 4,068 yards, 34 TDs and just 18 interceptions the last two seasons with the Cougars. He will have to sit out the 2015 season before returning as a senior in 2016. It's an interesting move considering former Ohio State coordinator Tom Herman just took over at Houston.
SIGNING DAY: What we learned | Harbaugh vs. Meyer | Winners, losers
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh, meanwhile, is building quarterback depth at the position where the Wolverines need the most improved play. He added four-star quarterbacks Zach Gentry and Alex Malzone in the 2015 recruiting class.
Junior Shane Morris and redshirt freshman Wilton Speight return from last year's team. Morris completed 14-of-40 passes for 128 yards and three interceptions in limited action last season. Senior Russell Bellomy transferred.
