Michigan football flips 4-star tight end Colt Lumpris from Alabama

[Mickey the Mouth]

It had seemed that Michigan football was going to go on a little bit of a recruiting lull after getting a commitment on Friday night from 2027 Chicago (Ill.) Mount Carmel four-star safety Tavares Harrington. Yet, the Wolverines continue their torrid pace, with yet another opting to pledge to the maize and blue.

Earlier on Saturday, Michigan got a couple of predictions that it would receive a flip commitment from Alabama pledge Colt Lumpris -- a four-star tight end from Lawrenceville (N.J.) School. How imminent it would be was unclear, but Lumpris ultimately made the flip from the Crimson Tide to the Wolverines, making it official via a post from Rivals' Hayes Fawcett.

Here is the scouting report from 247Sports' Hudson Standish:

- High-upside two-way standout at tight end and edge rusher who could feasibly play either side of the ball at the P4 level. Verified hovering a shade over 6-foot-6, 225 pounds with long arms and massive hands. Possesses immense bulking capacity.- Unique fluidity of movement for a player of his size. Lacrosse multi-sport experience clearly translates, considering his ideal short-area quickness and redirection capability.- Clear red zone threat who will battle at the catch point. Growing as a pure ball tracker, but flashed plenty of positives in that regard as a junior. Can generate explosive power in the legs and plays with impressive jump timing.- Young for his class, turns 17 in July.- Primarily deployed as a slot receiver at the prep level, will need to continue improving play strength, technique, and contact courage before he's ready to give quality in-line reps.- Should be viewed as an immensely high-ceiling pass catcher with an ideal blend of route-running savvy andcontested catch ability. Could eventually draw looks from NFL scouts if he keeps progressing.

ESPN is highest on Lumpris, having him as the No. 218 player in the country. Rivals is right behind, with a ranking of No. 277. 247Sports rates him as a three-star in the proprietary rankings, but a four-star in the 247Sports Composite.
