Gophers recruit Charlie Jilek flips commitment to Texas
Michigan prep prospect Charlie Jilek is on the move again.
After flipping from Central Florida to the Gophers on Oct. 1, the three-star recruit from Portage, Mich., has moved on from Minnesota in favor of Texas on Thursday.
Jilek was committed to UCF as a tight end, then Minnesota as a linebacker and now Texas as a tight end.
Jilek told the Pioneer Press in October that he felt felt like he was” a stronger player on the defensive side of the ball” and that having an offer to “play in the Big Ten was awesome.”
The exit of the 6-foot-5, 240-pound player puts Minnesota at 30 total pledges for its 2026 class. Minnesota has two linebackers committed: Hudson Dunn of Peoria, Ariz., and Angel Luciano of Steelton, Pa.
