Overview
- ESPN reported Bourque’s decision on Tuesday, confirming the four-star Tabor Academy standout is reopening his 2027 recruitment.
- Bourque told Rivals he is decommitting due to uncertainty and plans to take campus visits this spring to reassess his options.
- After the move, he announced a new scholarship offer from Michigan State, and ESPN reports Penn State, Virginia Tech and Washington have already registered interest, with Georgia, Florida and North Carolina expected to be involved.
- Michigan’s 2027 class now stands at three commitments — Recarder Kitchen, Tristan Dare and Louis Esposito — as the new staff pivots to other quarterback targets, including offering Illinois commit Kamden Lopati.
- The decommitment follows December’s transition from Sherrone Moore to Kyle Whittingham, who revamped the offensive staff with Jason Beck as coordinator, while former primary recruiter Chip Lindsey departed.
