If there Georgia Bulldogs are looking for big bodied defensive lineman in the transfer portal, then Georgia could look to reignite their previous recruiting relationship with Florida Gators defensive lineman Michai Boireau. The 6-foot-5, 350-pound defensive lineman is expected to be one of the biggest players in the transfer portal.

Boireau intends to transfer and will have two seasons of eligibility left. The massive defensive tackle was a starter for Florida in 2025. He posted 20 tackles, two sacks and a game-sealing interception (vs. Mississippi State) this season.

There are a few reasons why Boireau could consider Georgia. The Bulldogs nearly landed his commitment when he was a member of the class of 2024 and Georgia rarely burns a bridge, so he could commit to the Gators' top rival. He played high school football for Creekside High School in Fairburn, Georgia, so he could look to stay home.

Boireau is a former three-star recruit, but he did not play like it at Florida. As a true freshman (2024 season), Boireau appeared in 12 games and played 144 snaps. He also was named to the SEC academic honor role during the fall of 2024.

Georgia will be far from the only team interested in Boireau. His run-stuffing ability and size are impressive traits that should allow him to have a significant role at any program in the country.
