Curtis Kimmonds, a 5-10 220 pound transfer RB from NAIA Southeastern University has committed to UMass.
I've blogged about Kimmonds before.
The Minuteman run game was a train wreck last year. UMass was #131 out of #134 teams in rushing offense. The Minutemen averaged only 82.4 yards/game. 127 of the 134 FBS teams averaged 100 yards or better. Kimmonds has good size at 220 pounds and hopefully he will be part of a much improved UMass rushing attack.

As a Freshman, Chevalier already has Power Four offers from Michigan, Maryland and Missouri. UMass, UConn, Colorado State and UNLV have offered from the Group-of-Five. In Amherst, he would have the chance to be the featured RB and receive an excellent education.
New OC Max Warner talks about Spring practice. I think he'll have more talent to work with than in 2025. The QB room and the WR's look to be much improved. I think the jury is still out on running backs and offensive line.

To that end, The new MAC conference blog thinks Pop Warner will be a impact transfer for UMass. They also talk about MAC expansion and the looming 2027 MAC Media package.

UPDATE: The Minuteman Command has a post on Charles' offer.
Charles is an up-and-coming athlete who is likely to be a talented recruit by the time he's a senior. UMass is his first offer. He could keep the Springfield-to-UMass pipeline going and play in front of friends and family in Amherst.
