The latest celebrity scheduled to join Jim Harbaugh's national Signing Day event at Michigan comes from the world of poker.

Phil Hellmuth shared on Twitter his plans to be in Ann Arbor on Wednesday when the school unveils its newest class of recruits.

Harbaugh is hoping for a strong finish that could include Rashan Gary, a defensive tackle from New Jersey who is rated the No. 1 prospect in the country.

His class already ranks in the top 10 nationally.

Michigan previously announced attendees including Derek Jeter, Tom Brady and Ric Flair.
