Michigan football commit Markus Allen reopens recruitment

Michigan football's 2021 recruiting class just lost a member.

Three-star receiver Markus Allen announced Wednesday afternoon that he was re-opening his recruitment and de-committing from the Wolverines.

Ranked No. 455 overall according to the 247Sports Composite rankings, Allen had been committed to Michigan since April 28.

"After having a deep conversation and reconsidering my recruitment, I feel as if it's best I re-open my recruitment as of now," Allen wrote on Twitter.

Allen's teammate at Northmont High School, safety Rod Moore, is also a Michigan commitment. The Wolverines previously signed defensive end Gabe Newburg in the 2019 class from the school.
