Ohio high school linebacker Devon Williams flipped his college commitment from Kentucky to the Gophers’ 2021 recruiting class on Friday.

Williams, a 6-foot-1, 215-pound, three-star outside linebacker from Dublin Coffman High School, had pledged to Kentucky on Jan. 27. He is now the third-highest rated recruit in Minnesota’s class for next year, passing Georgia receiver Lemeke Brockington who committed earlier this week.

“After talking over with my family, I would like to announce that I am de-committed from the University of Kentucky,” Williams wrote on Twitter. “Thank you to the coaches, staff & fans. The opportunity given as well as the support was greatly appreciated.

“Next, I want to say that my recruitment is not open,” Williams continued. “I’ve always dreamt of playing football at the next level, but also being somewhere I know will help develop into the man I want to be. With that being said, I would like to also announce that I am 100% committed to the University of Minnesota!”

Williams also received offers from Michigan State, Michigan, Arkansas, Nebraska, West Virginia and others, according to 247sports.com.
