BREAKING: 4 Star TE/ATH Colt Lumpris has Flipped his Commitment to Michigan!!!

BREAKING: 4 Star TE/ATH Colt Lumpris Flips to Michigan Host: TJ Ronin (MichiganVOCFB) Date: May 23, 2026 Overview & Tone Highly energetic, celebratory reaction video to Colt Lumpris flipping his commitment to Michigan. Ronin is ecstatic, calling it a "major win," "home run," and "not normal" for Michigan's current recruiting momentum. Emphasizes that Michigan is now able to flip elite prospects from top programs like Alabama. Key Context Flip Details: Lumpris flipped from Alabama. Steve Wilfong (247) dropped a flip prediction, and the commitment happened ~16 minutes later. Donor Event: Ronin credits a recent big donor event (Champion Circle) with giving Michigan the NIL/financial firepower to dominate recruiting. He says "I was right" about its impact. Recruiting Streak: Michigan is landing blue chips "every day, sometimes twice." Ronin calls the current run "insane" and not hyperbolic. Player Profile: Colt Lumpris Measurables: ~6'6" (verified slightly over), 225 lbs, long arms, massive hands, young (turns 17 in July). Position: Listed as TE/ATH but primarily a slot receiver/hybrid weapon. Ronin says he’s essentially a wide receiver who will be used like J.J. Buchanan (moved from TE to WR role). Background: Lawrenceville HS (NJ), ranked ~#289 nationally, multi-sport (lacrosse background helps with fluidity and short-area quickness). Hudson Standish Scouting Highlights: High-upside two-way athlete (TE/edge). Unique fluidity and movement for his size. Red-zone threat with strong contested-catch ability and jump timing. Immense bulking potential. Needs development in play strength, technique, and in-line blocking. High ceiling; projected as a potential NFL player ("Sunday player"). Athletic & On-Field Traits (Huddle Tape Reactions) Ronin repeatedly praises the tape: Size + Athleticism: "Lurch" frame, cheetah-like speed, gazelle running motion. Hands & Catch Radius: Elite hand catcher, massive catch radius. Contested Catches: Mosses defenders in double coverage; red-zone nightmare. After Catch: Dangerous in space, especially on slants/RPOs. Competitiveness: Not afraid of contact, physical. Justin Jefferson Flight School: Won 1-on-1 MVP at invite-only camp (as a "tight end" beating WRs). Slight Critique: Wishes his vertical jump was a bit higher, but notes he still wins at the catch point. Michigan Scheme Fit Will thrive in Jason Beck’s offense with heavy RPO usage. Quick slants, space exploitation, and red-zone mismatches. Projected immediate contributor (possible early playing time or redshirt). Class & Big Picture Michigan now at 11 blue chips, ranked #8 nationally. Ronin calls the 2027 class his favorite since the 2021 class (led to a natty). Predicts more flips and big gets before signing day. Optimistic about landing more targets (mentions Dakota Garant, Nelson from Texas Tech, etc.). Strong belief this class can lead to another national title. Memorable Quotes "Alabama who? Oregon who? LSU who?" "This isn’t normal... It doesn’t seem real." "We’re literally just collecting the most legit players right now." "Ohio State, you’re so fucked." "We are a juggernaut on the recruiting trail." Overall Takeaway: Ronin views this as another massive statement win for Michigan under Coach Whittingham, fueled by resources, elite recruiting, and on-field success. Lumpris is seen as a high-ceiling athletic mismatch weapon who fits the modern NFL/college tight end hybrid mold perfectly. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
