Well, since they tend to come
Well, since they tend to come in pairs by position group, I'd have to say that Da'Shawn Hand is next.

YES!
He is a big one! Huge commit (literally and figuratively).

I'd expect his rankings to rise over the summer. He has crazy athleticism and speed for a DT, let alone one as big as he is.

To start off ranked so well
To start off ranked so well by both sites is definately a good sign. If he jumps up to one of the top 5 DT's in the class, at least on scout, that would make him a pretty good candidate for a 5th star. But maybe that's me getting ahead of myself.

Nice. He decided that once
Nice. He decided that once he got listed on Rivals, he had to commit. Is it MONE or MON-EE? MON-EE being my preference.

Btw I love the inroads into Utah and with the Samoans specifically...same HS as Haloti Ngata and I'm sure a big thanks is owed to Sione Houma as well.

Houma is Tongan. And if I had to guess, I'd say that Mone is Tongan as well. I think he'll find it funny that people over here don't know the difference between the two

My apologies. My senior year
My apologies. My senior year at UM I took a PoliSci class about Pacific Rim politics focusing on Tonga and the like...but I guess that hasn't prevented other ignorance about the area. I thought Samoans referred to the larger area.

Apology accepted. I didn't
Apology accepted. I didn't even know what a tongan was before today. As soon as I knew, I became offended by your comment, then I read your apology, now here I am accepting it.

No big deal. I used to live in the South Pacific (Nuku'alofa is beautiful this time of year) and I still have trouble identifying some people. I just wonder how long it will take for someone in Michigan to ask him how he's related to The Rock.

But credit to the coaches as well. He gushed about the program according to an interview I read, but the coaches are the what makes him do that.
This should also satisfy Brian a bit. It's worth using a scholarship on a fullback if you can get a guy like him. His highlight tape is fantastic.

Hoke/Helinski are geniuses. Houma is gonna be a valuable player but building inroads at the school that produces beasts like Mone is key longterm. Viva Hoke!

DT
I feel like DT is a position we need athleticism and size going forward, and it looks like Mone fits the bill! Regardless, I'm glad he is Blue, and hopefully this will kickstart a flood of recruits in the coming days/weeks! Go blue! Welcome to the family.

We're still a week away from the one-year anniversary of probably the greatest weekend in MIchigan recruiting history. Is this beginning of a repeat?
