A fast-rising West Georgia linebacker seeing his recruitment take off, Culpepper is a physical, hard-hitting defender who shined on a weekly basis for the Troup Tigers in 2025. After a productive junior season where he made 59 tackles, 16 TFLs and 12 sacks, the impressive-looking defender earned a big offer from the Michigan Wolverines this week. The 6-foot-3 210-pounder is one of the hardest-hitting defenders in the 2027 class with outstanding length and explosiveness off the snap. He was a nightmare to block all season and should see a major bump in the next 2027 Prep Redzone rankings this spring.
