Zion Robinson<\/a> flipped his commitment from Michigan to Stanford the day after National Signing Day. <\/p>\nRobinson initially committed to Michigan in the summer and appeared to be locked in with the Wolverines. In fact, Robinson was just at Michigan for The Game over the weekend. However, Stanford continued to push behind the scenes. <\/p>\n
The Cardinal\u2019s efforts increased on the morning of signing day and caused a postponement, which ultimately led to a flip.<\/p>\n
Michigan is now left with two wide receivers in the class \u2014\u00a0Rivals300 prospect Travis Johnson and three-star prospect Jaylen Pile.<\/p>\n
At 6-foot-3, 175 pounds, Robinson is ranked as the No. 32 wide receiver and No. 197 overall prospect in the country, per the Rivals Industry Ranking. He is also ranked as the No. 28 overall recruit in the state of Texas. <\/p>\n
