Re: Montana Recruits 2018
I think Max Morris would be a big pick up . . . 6-5 TE which is something we didn't pick up this past offseason. Give him a few years to bulk up and I think he would be a solid addition.

Re: Montana Recruits 2018
Max Morris is a Top 10 player in this next year's class and his tape backs it up. Runs well, a good blocker, catches the ball well, and has great size for a TE recruit. Should be a priority recruit at least for MSU next year.Bozcat003 wrote:I think Max Morris would be a big pick up . . . 6-5 TE which is something we didn't pick up this past offseason.

Re: Montana Recruits 2018
I think we have a good chance of landing him. I think we've been on his trail for some time, our lack of TE depth has to be something he will consider, and that Glacier connection.VimSince03 wrote:Max Morris is a Top 10 player in this next year's class and his tape backs it up.

I think Conor Quick may be a bobcat too. No inside source at all, but seems like we've been after him for a while as well. Would be a solid Offensive Guard someday.

Re: Montana Recruits 2018
As HowardRoss2080 pointed out in our discussions last week, there will be plenty of interior line help on both sides of the ball in this class. Even though we disagree on our scouting of Conor, Carson Shuman of Helena Capital, Joe McElroy of Missoula Loyola, or Karson Wheat of Deer Lodge are clear Top 15 talents. Very good depth at OG/DT this year.Bozcat003 wrote:I think we have a good chance of landing him.

Re: Montana Recruits 2018
On the positive on both Capital kids...they are both wrestlers and will be at the State Tournament this weekend in Billings. I watched both of them last weekend at divisionals and both are athletic. At this point, Shuman is the better wrestler.VimSince03 wrote:As HowardRoss2080 pointed out in our discussions last week, there will be plenty of interior line help on both sides of the ball in this class.

Should be a good weekend for wrestlers that play football. Garret Graves, who I see will be in your top something, is undefeated and ranked #1 at 182. As a team, Eureka sent 14 wrestlers to state.

Well we know Stitt has no use for TE so he should be a Bobcat.

No Stitt would just put him as an H-receiver which is basically their version of a Tight End.lutecat wrote:Well we know Stitt has no use for TE so he should be a Bobcat.

Huge weekend for wrestling, which I see as a major role in getting better as a football player.

Re: Montana Recruits 2018
Agreed, especially for d-linemen. Leverage, hand placement and hand fighting, pad level are all HUGE benefits of wrestling.HowardRoss280 wrote:tdub wrote:On the positive on both Capital kids...they are both wrestlers and will be at the State Tournament this weekend in Billings.

QB/S from Eureka goes undefeated his junior year to win a state title. A Top 20 prospect next year for football.

Re: Montana Recruits 2018
Didn't his brother sign to play QB for UM before ending up at Rocky? Any chance he'd choose MSU over UM because of that? And would MSU have need to bring in another QB next year? By that I mean they are young there and didn't they sign a couple QBs a week ago (could be mixing up Washington signings with MSU). Didn't Ash like to sign at least 1 QB a year? Does Choate have that same philosophy?HowardRoss280 wrote:Aaron White (Shelby) http://wwe.hudl.com/profile/4520309/aaron-white/videos
I like what I see on Aaron's film. Might not be a big time prospect. But definitely a kid that shouldn't go completely unnoticed!

And Eureka brings home their second state title in 3 months.

Choate wants 4-5 qbs per class. Because they are usually the best athlete and leader on the team. Not to bring in to play qb but bring them in as an ath.seacat85 wrote:Didn't his brother sign to play QB for UM before ending up at Rocky? Any chance he'd choose MSU over UM because of that?

I know that Drew Turner was invited to NIKE "The Opening" Regionals in LA which is basically a one day camp for prospects in their prospective regions. If Drew does well at the camp, he may be invited to the NIKE Football The Opening Finals in Beaverton, Oregon this summer where he will compete against some elite prospects.HowardRoss280 wrote:Any word on prospects attending football camps and how they are doing?

Other than him, I know Glacier, Helena Capital, Billings West, and Billings Senior usually travel to other camps during the summer. They usually still attend UM/MSU camps but they try to go to the bigger ones as well.
I know kids have gone to the Northwest Elite Index camps during the spring and summer in the past so those are other ones to watch for. I'll keep an eye out. I found out about Drew's through his twitter account.
The camp you are referring to is the Northwest Stars Camp sponsored by the NorthwestEliteIndex. They usually do a recap in March.

Yep, NorthWest Stars was the one I heard about. I think it happened this past weekend, I'm looking for an article or roster of some kind to see if anyone from Montana attended but no luck so far. Have you seen anything Vim?
