benches 410
squats 610
4.6 40 time

played TE at A&M last year..caught 4 passes 2 for touchdowns...

wanted to play defense...so through his old coach RC Slocum they talked about a few schools and MSU was one of them.

he came out and really liked everything bozo had to offer..

so now he is a cat..should step in and take over for montoya

Super! Great to have you on board Andy! You will love going to school in Bozeman!

Andy comes in as a sophomore...correct? It sounds like we'll have the pleasure of watching him for the next three years.

Now we need to officially get Garrison signed....I believe that he will come in as a sophomore as well.

yes andy is only a soph

i heard garrison is a done deal..also heard he is huge

Can't wait to see Andy playing this fall. If Garrison is a done deal like gfallscat says (he is usually right) the Cats are going to be real fun to watch this fall.

Thought somebody stated that Garrison is something like 6-4 295. God I wish it were football season!!!

GO CATS!!

Pretty sure Garrison is set as well. Canyoncat is correct, he is listed at 6-4 295 and he will be a redshirt sophomore. He used his redshirt year in 2002.

Where is Garrison from? Sounds like an off. tackle. Any other info?

I remember Garrison being from U of Houston

Post by **kmax** » Wed May 05, 2004 8:58 am

Yep, he is from U of Houston and is an OT. I poked around one of the UH boards a couple weeks ago and couldn't find anything other than somebody from here that was asking about him.

This was originally posted by HelenaCat95, but I split his post and the following ones out to the topic about the Chronicle, so here is his original post about Matakis:

Now here's some news that the Comical could "break" for us.....learn whether Garrison has officially transferred from Houston to the MSU.

I hadn't said it yet, but Matakis looks like a phenomenal pickup for us. The D-Line will have some tremendous competition on it, and that competition will bring out the best in them.

GO CATS

Garrison is listed on the current roster.

iaafan is right, apparently #65, so I guess that would make it official.

The roster looks a bit incomplete (hopefully). I didn't see any mention of JC transfers Chaz Guinn or Corky Lindsay. It looks like it has some of our new guys on there, and not others...weird.

gfallscat · Post by **gfallscat** » Fri May 07, 2004 1:16 pm

roster is better than it was..but not totally ready to go

tyler bolton #12
chaz guinn #19
eddie smith #18
corkey lindsey #4

I didn't think incoming Freshman that were getting RedShirted would be on the roster...

what about Scotty Rucker, Toby Rundle, Bobby Daly, Mason Ophus...etc. I think that all of those are going to be redshirts....maybe it's different because they are Montana Boys.
