Joel Honigford Goes Blue

Michigan has added commitment No. 17 in the 2017 class from Sugarcreek (Ohio) Garaway Local School offensive tackle Joel Honigford.

The 6-6, 263-pounder is a three-star that is ranked as the No. 46 offensive tackle in the nation.

The lean tackle prospect has been sitting on a Michigan offer for a while but deciding he'd wait no longer and pledge to the Wolverines.

Honigford becomes tackle No. 3 in Michigan's class joining Oak Park (Mich.) three-star Ja'Raymond Hall and recent three-star pledge Andrew Stueber out of Darien (Conn.) High School. The Ohio native chose Michigan over schools like Auburn, Michigan State, Oregon, Nebraska, North Carolina, and Oklahoma among others. The in-state Buckeyes never offered Honigford and that could be something to pay attention to moving forward.
