He's legit. I would be super stunned by the end of his recruitment this summer he wouldn't have a bevy of Power 5 and high mid-major offers. He absolutely tore up the weird spring season here. Torrey is an absolute hotbed for D1 talent in a lot of sports. If Montana some how stayed on him until the end, I think it'd be quite a coup.

Agreed. One thing about this staff is they have never shied away from top end recruits. All we need is one!

Montana has offered Broyce Batchan Jr.

Another 2024 player has picked up an offer from the University of Montana. Jacob Cofie from Eastside Catholic in the Seattle area has garnered a lot of attention. He's a rising sophomore big that has already been offered by WSU, UW, Colorado and UNLV.

Seattle continues to produce prodigious amounts of basketball talent and the UM staff has already issued a number of scholarship offers to Seattle area kids in the past week.
 
Darnell Rogers, the shortest player in D-1 basketball last season at 5’2” was listed at 150. Our center last year was listed at 208. (Steadman was between 230-240 and was pushed around even then) I’d sure hope Travis is tired of being pushed around, because it sure happened a lot last season.
