Michigan flips legacy QB Tommy Carr away from Miami (Ohio)

Three-star Saline (Mich.) High quarterback Tommy Carr has flipped his commitment from Miami (Ohio) to Michigan.

Carr is the grandson of former Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr, who led U-M to a national title, and the younger brother of Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr.

Michigan already holds a commitment from one quarterback in three-star Newberry Park (Calif.) High signal-caller Brady Smigiel. However, Smigiel suffered an ACL injury this season, and the Wolverines are in need of more depth at the position.

Tommy had a strong senior season, leading Saline to a 10-2 record and an appearance in the state playoffs. He passed for 2,797 yards and 37 touchdowns with only five interceptions. He also rushed for 300 yards and eight scores

Tommy is ranked as the No. 57 quarterback and 972 overall recruit nationally, per the Rivals Industry Ranking. He is also ranked as the No. 18 overall recruit in the state of Michigan for this cycle.
