Hernon is going to UNC. He wants to stay close to home and likes the campus and our defensive line coach. Nice recruit for us. We're thin on the d line and he'll see some playing time next year, probably.

Some recruiting thoughts:

JON OPPERUD 6-7 280 OL (2 Star)
UM is the only school to offer him thus far. He however has atleast been looked at by Boise, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Oregon and Oregon State.

LINTZ VERBALS WITH WSU

[helenagrizfan#1]

What is the word on Jared Hunt. Did we offer him? Did he verbal?

He did verbal in the Helena IR today. He is a great player and looks to play db and punter.

40 Yards per punt in HS is pretty impressive.

[Re/MaxGriz]

I see that TE Andrei Lintz from Bellingham, WA committed to Washington State... don't know if that was pointed out, the Griz did offer him.

So the new punter is an all-state QB that is a state contender in the 110 hurdles?? As if Hauck isn't tempted to fake it enough already . . .

Wasn't our last punter also an all state QB in HS?

[Turd Ferguson]

I'm a bit surprised that more people aren't talking about this Matt Lipski kid. I notice that Montana State is now listed as a possible school. They weren't a few weeks ago . . .

http://oregonpreps.rivals.com/viewprosp ... 12&Sport=1

He's rated 5.4 from Rivals (the same Balogh was rated), the 6th best prospect in Oregon, with tons of room for improvement. According to the Ohio State board, UM offered him in October . . .

http://www.buckeyeplanet.com/forum/2008 ... ipski.html

He may end up being one of the steals of the class. I-A schools can't offer half scholarships and might not want to offer a full-ride for a "project", so he may face the choice of coming to Montana or walking on at Oregon or Oregon State. Apparently he just started playing football his sophomore year of HS.

Andrei Lintz committed to Wazzu today, so no trip to visit UM on the 26th

9 Montana boys so far! (that we know of)

Seems strange that the Griz have 13 verbals 9 in state and the silly kitties only have 5 total verbals 3 which are jc transfers

You sure seem to think about the Cats an awful lot!

It's not about quantity it's about quality. When a team loses 29 seniors there are going to be a lot of recruits. When a team loses less there are going to be less recruits. Most fans would rather be in MSU's situation.

Ya` I'm sure everyone wants to HAVE to rely on Jc Transfers

I am sure most teams would love to have the same number of scholarships every year, but that is not always possible. We had year where we had true freshman and redshirt freshman played together and went all the way through together. It resulted in a large amount of open scholarships in one year.

One could look at the positive aspect that most of the players made it all the way through so there was good retention.

If the staff is able to get some real blue chip players that don't need to redshirt from this class then that would put them on track with last years class and help even out the disparity in the number of scholarships each year.

[getgrizzy]

so what happens if we still have scholarships left, but there aren't any players left that are good enough to give them to? have we given some of our current players some of the excess scholarships that we have. seems like that would be the thing to do. maybe i'm overvaluing our surplus, but i don't like the idea of just giving out scholarships to h.s. players unless they're good enough.
