The more I hear and read about Opland the more I think he might be the best athlete in the state. To run the 100, 200 and 400 so well in the same meet at his size is spectacular. Then to high jump among the best is just icing. I'm trying to think of a player with a similar record. I'm think he averaged double figures and rebounded well in basketball.
Adam Corderio, His junior year(98) he won state 100, 200, 4x100 relay, shotput, and discus. He beat Arie Grey that year in state B championships. (@6-1" 225lbs).
Impressive. I looked it up just to see his times and distances. Both Nagler and Opland have better times in the sprints and would have won all 3 if they competed that year. But neither one throws like that.

Adam was a freak in high school, great speed with raw strength and a huge frame, he didn't even start lifting weights until his junior year in HS. After he graduated and went to Bozeman for his first year, I saw him when I went home for Christmas, and he was just plain huge. he went from 225 up to 265 to play DE, the kid had no neck. He has some family in I want to say Cascade, they had great genes too.

Cordeiro once sacked the QB three times in five plays. That dude was a dude! :)

He liked to take plays off though too, which I think was his downfall, otherwise he might have made the NFL.

Does anyone know if Colter does write ups on verbals? It would be nice to learn more about all of them.

He does, but from the looks of it he's too busy. He just expanded his coverage by at least double and spring ball just started. I'm sure he'll get to it fairly soon.

I do stories on each and every verbal commit. I'll have stories on each of the new ones once the new recruiting portion of Skyline Sports is complete. By September, we'll be caught up!

Sean should pick it up starting next week. They were missing four starting lineman due to grades for the first two games. They will be back starting next week.

Sean seems to be putting up big numbers already! Can't imagine what he will do with all those guys returning . . . will he be playing RB or LB in college do you know?

Skyline Sports has started writing about MSU commitments . . . Jake Sessions and Sean Opland so far . . . have to be a premium subscriber but it's worth it.

Great write ups. I like how there are commits that grew up Cat fans and that grew up Griz fans. Shows that the Cats are able to grab talented kids that are from everywhere and not just Cat fans.

You can find all our recruiting stories by clicking here:

I'll have Darrius Mosley and Dawonya Tucker later this week. I have already interviewed Mosley. Tucker is hard to get a hold of — he doesn't have a cell phone.

Thanks Colter. Mosely looks to be a big time recruit.

20 Tackles??? :shock: :shock: :shock:

Sean will be a great player no matter where he ends up on the field. . . Would like to see him at Lb . . . seems to be a tackling machine
