Brad Hawkins, a 4-star wide receiver prospect from Camden, New Jersey, announced his commitment to play college football at Michigan on Friday, according to Brian Dohn of Scout.com.
“He gelled really well with the coaches and he liked the vibe with the coaches,” Camden coach Dwayne Savage said, per Dohn. “He felt like (coach Jim) Harbaugh was down to earth, and with all the former NFL coaches, he feels that might be his best chance to get to the next level.”
Although Hawkins is rated a rather modest No. 38 overall in the Class of 2016 among receivers, per 247Sports' composite rankings, he has the upside to be a major playmaker for Michigan.
