2008 Recruiting List

[Hells bells]

Thanks Payton for all you do - keeping this info as up-to-date as possible. Some interesting things I see on the scout.com site:

QB Nick Green, an option QB was dropped from a 3 star to a two star, wonder why?

Griz have offered another WR, Ryan Misare, however he's got offers from Washington, Wazzu and Arizona to name a few. At 6-4 and running a 4.6 it looks like this guy could compete for a year or two of playing time at the FBS levels. It's too bad, he could probably come here and play 3-4 years and really rip up the conference. Guess we'll see...

Misare has given Air Force a verbal.

Also has been rumored that 2 UM coaches are in Tennessee looking at a QB. bigtyme has been correct in the past.

Just so you guys know, our coaches are in Tennessee right now looking at a QB that has been highly recommended by Jeff Fisher. Both Hauck and Phenecie are there working on bringing this kid to UM to play. I guess having Jeff Fisher as a liaison to UM is not such a bad idea. And look for Sarah Ena's brother to possibly make a cross state move to play football for the Griz. Their dad was a stud at WSU and the son wants to go follow the sister's footsteps as apparently she is enjoying her success in Missoula. I don't know if this has been mentioned on here because I got tired of sifting through all the garbage, but FYI. Looking forward to the results.

Could this be the Tennessee QB?

[BigSkyBears]

looks like Hernon is going to UNC. Scout updated yesterday and Rivals has had theirs up for a while. However they did mention during the state championship game on tv that he was going to Montana so who knows.

 

[Montanan]

according to Southwest Recruiting Analyst Scout.com, Jason Jewell, Nick Hernon told him he has committed to UNC.

Big recruiting coup for Northern Colorado if true.

I thought he was going to WSU on the 12th. If he still takes the trip to UM after going to WSU I like the Griz chances. :twocents:

QB recruiting must really be in the sh^ts if the staff is going all the way to Tennessee to look at an unranked one star with no offers. TN is probably the most expensive place in the country to get to from Montana. Just bringing that up since we're all so worried about the precious budget.

Well, Bobby's lack of ability to recruit at that position is well documented. If he's going to go down, he may as well go down in flames.

I would take Jeff Fisher's word over your ideology any day. Selle's talent YTBD, Bergquist has been good, Washington was not recruited, Swogger was not recruited, Larson walked on YTBD, Stapp only disappointment thus far. Your argument is weak!

uh, if he is the kid he made TN Super 44 all state team. That combined with a recommendation from Jeff Fischer would lead me to believe this is NOT something we should b!tch about. That is unless they used your credit card to buy the plane tickets.

:clap: :clap:

Good post, I would say too that Stapp is also YTBD - he's not had much of a chance being 3rd string these last two years and in 2007 he was just coming back off a shoulder operation of some sort and wasn't throwing the ball through most of the summer & fall camp. 2009 will be interesting to see if he or Selle wins the starting job once Cole has graduated.

 

[Bronco]

Bobby must think Cole is the best we have...

I was thinking with our first three games last fall that we would see others get a chance...not to be

My hope is that spring ball will be open competition at all positions including QB

Well, Stapp hasn't seen the field because he is fourth string behind two freshman. There's a reason he hasn't played and it's because he's determined to be a lousy quarterback. He'll never start a game in his UM career, and doesn't even run the scout team. He's 4th string, and that's only because Hauck hasn't brought in a 5th QB yet. I don't know how anyone can say he's anything more than a complete waste of a scholarship.

 

[Bronco]

I had high hopes for Clint when he was a freshman.

He's not a waste of schlorship...he helped Win a game by grabbing a wayward snap on a field goal....

 

[Downwiththefoe]

I think I agree with you- he seems really quick and athletic.

I feel he needs to be ont he field somewhere, maybe as a WR for those little counter/end around type plays, WR passes, etc.

He seems like he has gamer written all over him, but may never get his shot at QB.

[BWahlberg]

Noticed an update on scout.com:

Mike Cummings a 2 star WR will be in Missoula on the 19th: http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p=8&c=1&nid=2821331

Also Steven Jackson a 2 star RB has also had offers now from CSU and NAU. On the top of the list it says he runs a 4.6 40 but on the bottom they say a 4.69 40. http://recruiting.scout.com/a.z?s=73&p=8&c=1&nid=2927474

Are we talking about the same guy? Stapp is a prototypical pocket passer. On a good day he might get down to a 4.85 40 yard dash. Wide Receiver??? He is a great place-kick holder indeed. I can't argue with that. But how many career holders are on full-ride scholarships?

I think that there is a reason that the two other schools that he was considering were Drake and San Diego, which are non-scholarship schools. No other D-I head coach in the country thought he was worth a scholarship but Bob Hauck, and at this point I'd have to say that every other D-I head coach in the country was right.

 

[Downwiththefoe]

I could be wrong...or they had someone else holding on the play I recall thinking Stap looked athletic ands quick.

I can't disagree with you regarding his D-I ability as a QB (in fact look at the now locked smack fest thread that was about why the Griz can't get the best QB's when recruiting against fellow BSC teams) however if he is not going to play QB, they need to find another way for him to get ont he field.

Not to :deadhorse:

I don't believe anyone wanted any of our QB's except Montana or MSU, who wanted Selle. (supposedly Wyoming was in the hunt for Selle?)
