'14 VA DE Da'Shawn Hand (Alabama Verbal)

The loss of the tSUN dline coach could affect Hand:

But his loss certainly will be felt on the recruiting trail.

Montgomery was integral to the recruitment of tailback Derrick Green and defensive tackle Henry Poggi, the two highest-rated members of the Wolverines' 2013 class according to Rivals.

He had a hand in six of the 2013 commitments overall: Offensive lineman Jake Butt, defensive lineman Taco Charlton, receiver Jaron Dukes, linebacker Mike McCray, Poggi and Green.

He was the key recruiter for each of Michigan's 2014 commits.

And, looking forward, Montgomery was Michigan's trigger man on several uncommitted prospects for 2014, including defensive end Da'Shawn Hand. The Woodbridge, Va., prospect is the country's No. 1 overall player for 2014, and lists the Wolverines among his five leaders.

Doesn't sound like it will.

That's why when Hand's primary Michigan recruiter ? former defensive line coach, Jerry Montgomery ? left for Oklahoma last month, the Maize and Blue lost little if any ground.

"I heard about it, but I'm not sweating it," said Hand on Montgomery's departure. "Montgomery is a good dude, and that's a good move for him, but I'm not interested in Oklahoma whatsoever. That's how I feel about it. He is a good dude, but I like Coach Mattison."
