When Louisville kicks of summer camp in a couple of months, they’ll do so with a little less depth at the tight end position than they had in the spring.
As all of the cool transfers are doing these days, Austin Cummins used his personal Twitter account to announce his intention to leave the Cardinals. "[M]y family and I have decided that Louisville is not the best fit for me,” a portion of the redshirt freshman’s post read.Gods got a plan for me! pic.twitter.com/Yz9GsiBu2v

A three-star 2016 prospect coming out of high school in Stevenson, Ala., Cummins was the only tight end in the Cardinals’ class that year. In addition to the U of L, the 6-5 Cummins held offers from Southern Miss, Troy and Western Kentucky.
As a true freshman last season, Cummins took a redshirt. If he transfers to another FBS program, he’ll likely have to sit out the 2017 season to satisfy NCAA bylaws.
