Michigan has added three-star linebacker Weston Port, who had signed with UCLA, to the 2027 class.

Port, who announced his decision Monday, signed with the Bruins in December 2024 but in May he re-opened his recruitment because of the program's coaching change. The San Juan (Calif.) Hills linebacker, who is 6-foot-2, 225 pounds, was rated three stars by 247Sports Composite.

"Michigan for me has always been one of the schools on the 'Mount Rushmore' of college football," Port wrote in an Instagram post. "Lots of thought and sincere prayer has gone into this decision and I feel that Michigan will be the best home for me for these next 4 years."
