The momentum continues for the Wolverines.
It has been a slow week on the recruiting trail compared to the month of June as a whole, but Michigan has opened the holiday weekend with a commitment from 2016 wide receiver Brad Hawkins (Camden, New Jersey), he announced on Friday afternoon.
He is their first true wide receiver of the 2016 class, which is still a position of need in this recruiting cycle.
Hawkins is a four-star prospect and the 38th-ranked wide receiver in the 2016 class, according to the 247 Composite Ranking. He is teammates with four-star defensive end commit Ron Johnson, so this continues to build on the pipeline to the East coast through New Jersey.
