Overview
- Colt Lumpris, a 6-foot-6½, 250-pound four-star tight end, flipped his commitment from Alabama to Michigan while visiting Ann Arbor, according to Rivals reporting published Sunday.
- Rivals ranks Lumpris as the No. 11 tight end nationally and No. 277 overall in the Rivals300, and scouts project him as an every-down tight end who can block and catch at the next level.
- Lumpris told Rivals he chose Michigan for academics, the program’s culture and a specific development plan offered by Coach Kyle Whittingham.
- The commitment becomes Michigan’s 15th pledge for 2027 and could raise the Wolverines’ class standing as recruiting services update rankings in the coming weeks.
- Alabama loses a top target but still has other tight end options in its pipeline, including a committed Oakley Keegan and a likely official visit from four-star Malik Howard, leaving room for the Tide to reshape that position group.
