It all ended up working out for Erik Swenson.

The former Michigan commit who claimed that he had his scholarship pulled announced his commitment to Oklahoma on Saturday night.

The four-star offensive tackle announced the decision after taking an official visit to Norman over the weekend.

The Downers Grove, Illinois native had been a target for several B1G schools. Northwestern, Rutgers and Wisconsin had all shown significant interest in Swenson following his highly publicized decommitment from Michigan.

Michigan lost another four-star offensive lineman on Saturday morning. The Wolverines have three offensive linemen in their fifth-ranked 2016 class.
