Michigan football recruiting: Denzel Ward commits

Michigan picked up its second commitment for 2014 on Saturday. Chicago offensive tackle Denzel Ward, who was on his second visit to Michigan in the span of a week, decided to commit to the Wolverines. He joins Ohio linebacker Michael Ferns, who committed back in August, as recruits who are a part of Michigan's 2014 class.

Because he's a 2014 recruit, Ward hasn't been evaluated yet on any of the major recruiting sites. He's a very intriguing prospect, though. He only recently started playing organized football, and he's already 6-foot-9. He's got a lot of potential and is a good start to Michigan's offensive line for the 2014 class.

Currently, Ward's only offers are from Michigan and Purdue, according to Rivals.
