A significant addition to the Michigan Wolverines coaching staff has been made with the hiring of David Denham, bringing fresh energy and strategic depth to the defensive line. This announcement follows a report by 247Sports and was later verified through Denham’s social media channels. Notably, Denham recently accepted a position at Charlotte as their defensive tackles coach in January, but the opportunity to mentor top-tier athletes within one of college football's premier conferences proved irresistible.

Denham’s professional journey includes a notable stint at Western Michigan from 2020 to 2024, where he served not only as the defensive line coach but also as the recruiting coordinator in his final year. His collaboration with Lou Esposito during this period played a pivotal role in nurturing standout players like Marshawn Kneeland and Braden Fiske, who were eventually selected in the NFL draft. Before joining Western Michigan, Denham honed his skills at UIndy, where he managed both the defensive line and special teams, adding another dimension to his coaching repertoire.

David Denham's transition into collegiate coaching reflects an unwavering commitment to excellence and player development. His diverse background, ranging from roles at institutions such as Wabash College and Rose-Hulman, underscores a broad understanding of various football philosophies. Originally hailing from Indianapolis, Indiana, Denham brings a wealth of experience and a unique perspective that will undoubtedly benefit the Michigan Wolverines' pursuit of greatness on the field.
