A lot of bad happened for Michigan football on Saturday, some of it on the field, and one thing off.
While the Wolverines were busy losing, 31-7, to Oregon in Eugene, and while star wide receiver JJ Buchanan was taken to the hospital for the apparent shoulder injury he sustained in the first quarter, one of the star players that was in Michigan’s 2027 class opted to go elsewhere.

And it was announced during the game.
2027 Chicago (Ill.) Mount Carmel four-star safety Tavares Harrington was one of the future stars in the class for the maize and blue. High school teammates with four-star wide receiver Quentin Burrell, the hope was that the duo would come to Ann Arbor together and thrive. However, according to Hayes Fawcett from Rivals, Harrington flipped his commitment to Ole Miss as the Michigan game was winding down.
Without Harrington in the fold, Michigan has 21 pledges in the 2027 class. It had just added a three-star offensive lineman in Sterling Heights (Mich.) Stevenson’s Braden Chaffin.

Harrington, who’s departing, was the highest rated by ESPN, which had him as the No. 121 player in the country, and the 13th-best safety nationally. He’s the third safety to commit to the class and then back off his pledge this cycle.
