That was his third time in Ann Arbor, as he also visited for the Purdue game last fall and another time a couple summers ago.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Understandably so, Rouleau had great things to say after his most recent trip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">\u201cMy visit to Michigan was awesome,\u201d Rouleau told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/rivals\/news\/inside-michigans-weekend-star-2027s-visit-top-target-sends-major-signal\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rivals\u2019 Steve Wiltfong<\/a> ($). \u201cThe energy around the program is contagious, and I really connected with the coaches and players. What excites me most about playing for coach (Kyle) Whittingham and the Wolverines is the chance to be part of building something special. Their vision for the future, combined with the tradition and passion of the fanbase, makes it an opportunity I couldn\u2019t pass up. I\u2019m excited to contribute to their success and also being able to play for coach Harding!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Rouleau is listed at 6-foot-5 and 240 pounds, per Rivals, but 247Sports has him listed at 6-foot-7 and 269 pounds, so he may be a bit bigger than Rivals\u2019 last update on him. Regardless, the expectation is that he will eventually play one of the tackle positions at Michigan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Other than the Wolverines, Rouleau also earned offers from Ohio State, Clemson, Penn State, Oregon, Georgia, USC, Wisconsin, Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma Miami, Washington, Florida, Florida State and many others.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Michigan is now up to six total commitments in the 2027 recruiting class, and three of them are offensive linemen \u2014 Rouleau, and three-stars Louis Esposito and Tristan Dare. Rouleau also joins four-star edge rusher Recarder Kitchen, four-star safety Darrell Mattison and three-star safety Maxwell Miles in the class.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Rouleau is ranked No. 300 overall on the Rivals Industry Ranking.
