Laravel : Should I extend my User class to 'Authenticatable'?

Im building an app with AngularJS and Laravel. I'm currently working on a login page.
By default in Laravel, the 'out of the box' class User extends 'Authenticatable' but I would like to know if I can rather simply extends it to 'Model', because I actually want to rule my authentication access through AngularJS routing and not via Laravel.
I don't know if this makes sense.. and if this would even work (I dont wanna break the logic behind Laravel). Could anyone help me on that?
