ANN ARBOR -- Michigan's 2015 recruiting class continues to take shape, and this time, the Wolverines were able to win a battle against a coach who hasn't lost many in recent months.

That'd be Penn State's James Franklin.

2015 four-star offensive tackle prospect Grant Newsome, a Lawrenceville, N.J. prospect., announced via Twitter on Wednesday that he's committed to play for Brady Hoke and Michigan.

"I am incredibly happy to announce that I have committed to play football at the University of Michigan," Newsome wrote in a statement. "I feel that Michigan is the best fit athletically, academically, and socially for me, and I am excited to spend the next four years of my life in Ann Arbor.

"I would also like to thank Coach Hoke, Coach (Darrell) Funk, Coach (Chris) Singletary, and the entire Michigan staff, for making me feel like a part of your family. I can't wait to get onto campus and become a part of team 136!"

The 6-foot-7, 280-pound Newsome -- who thanks Franklin and Penn State in his statement -- rates as the No. 22 overall offensive tackle prospect nationally in 247sports.com's composite rankings. The composite has him as the No. 192 player in the class.

Rivals ranks Newsome at No. 199 overall, while Scout.com slots him at No. 215.

Newsome's other reported offers, per 247sports, included Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, LSU, Miami, Michigan State, Ohio State, Penn State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Wisconsin and many more.

He becomes the seventh member of Michigan's 2015 recruiting class -- joining four-star corner Garrett Taylor, four-star safety Tyree Kinnel, four-star linebacker Darrin Kirkland Jr., four-star quarterback Alex Malzone, three-star offensive lineman Jon Runyan Jr. and kicker Andrew David.

It's the third recruiting score for Hoke in the past month, as the Wolverines secured a pledge from Kirkland on May 18, got a transfer commit from former five-star running back Ty Isaac last week and now have Newsome in the fold.
