Several recruiting services indicate UMass has offered to Tyneil Hopper, a 6-3 225 pound TE from Rosewell, GA.

247Sports four-star player.

This article from yesterday features Hopper.

Quote from the article:

"Hopper’s eight-deep offer sheet looks like this: Kentucky, Wake Forest, Louisville, North Carolina, Illinois, Auburn, Alabama and UMass.

North Carolina was an early leader — in the public’s mind, at least — because of the Porter connection and Hopper’s older brother. Auburn and Alabama emerged as contenders the second both sides of the Iron Bowl rivalry sent out offers to Hopper.

For now, however, Hopper remains patient.

“I’m still visiting schools and making sure I make the right decision wherever I go,” Hopper said. “Everyone that’s offered me is in it. I’m just enjoying the recruiting process and making sure I make the right decision.”
