Update: According to Deontay Burnett himself, he has not committed to Michigan:
I have not committed to Michigan.

Scout.com’s Greg Biggins is reporting that Burnett considered committing during his visit and told his High School coach that (why word got out). He backed out from the commit, possibly the Michigan coaches did too, and said he is still considering WSU and Arizona State ($).

Deontay Burnett, a former Washington State commit, has decided to pledge for the Wolverines after visiting Ann Arbor this weekend. Burnett is a three-star WR out of Junipero Serra High School in California. Rivals’ Adam Gorney is reporting Burnett’s flip:

At 5-feet-11 and 160 pounds, Burnett will join early-enrollee Brian Cole at the WR position for Michigan in the 2015 class. Sam Webb believes even with Burnett’s commitment, Michigan still would take four-star Ole Miss WR commit, Van Jefferson ($).
