Michigan flips 2024 DL Deyvid Palepale from USC

Landisville (Pa.) Hempfield three-star defensive lineman Deyvid Palepale has flipped his commitment from USC to Michigan.

Palepale was committed to the Trojans since July 1. The Wolverines were in the running for his pledge, remained involved in his recruitment following his summer decision and have now flipped the 6-foot-2, 305-pounder.

He is the No. 794 overall prospect and No. 78 DL in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 19 player in Pennsylvania.

Palepale does not currently have an On3 NIL Valuation. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
