this class has character, or at least characters, and i like that. we've got a local yokel, a wressler (always love them wresslers), a kid who was busted in starbucks for drinking a latte, another from southern california who got stranded in a snowstorm and decided right there montana was for him, and a kid from bozeman just to rankle the bobs. the offensive line recruits are a bunch of outsized freaks who make our current starters look like high school jayvees, and bulked up might form the first line in college history to average 400 pounds. we had only one qb recruit, but he wasn't any good and spared us the embarrassment of completing only 46% of his passes by not coming anyway, so we dodged a dying quail there. despite the predictable bland offense, i see many moore touchdowns via the running game, and though i'd like to buy into the usual coach-speak--"these are great kids coming into a great program, and this was just a great recruiting class"--i should point out that we have not signed one single solitary kid from great falls.

Lolz...yeah, plural Lol.

WOW, do you realize what you are getting into on egriz? Rest assured, your boy will be just fine at Missoula. Welcome to GRIZNATION!!!!! Thanks for entrusting us with your boy, no need to worry about him. As for you, do not let some nimwits here scare you off. Being a parent of a GRIZ on EGRIZ is tougher than being an athlete. :thumb:

Note EGRIZZERS: This is proof players and parents do follow things here. Please keep that in mind before going off on anyone player or coach. I hope EGRIZ as a whole treats you well, the majority of egrizzers are great people. The minority, well judge for yourself, but for me I have learned it is best to let them be. Nobody here will change them.
Keep us posted how your son likes the community, campus, and team. I for one, would love to hear things on here from the parent perspective. :thumb:
 
Absolutely, welcome glo! And welcome to Jon as well. If he loves the University of Montana half as much as most of us on this board do, he'll never regret his decision.

My apologies- Tell your son he made a great choice!!!!

Once a Griz ALWAYS a Griz!!!!

PS Let me be the first to invite you to WA-Griz Stadium in September!!!! Come and enjoy the "Noise from the Den"
 
Payton - I see you added Shaw, have we seen any sort of confirmation other than a few posts on here?
 
Think we're missing a name or two on here, but since no one else has mentioned him, guess we can all wait until the official announcement now.

I saw it reported on another newstation in Spokane last night...

Shaw telling a news reporter on TV that he is coming to Montana is as good as any verbal. Things can always change at the last minute till they sign those letters.
 
UM Recruiting party:

5:30PM at the Double Tree ($10 for Adults and $5 for kids)

I sure some egrizers head down there and give us a report...

Thanks in advance.
 
I was hoping something official would have leaked out by now. Does anyone know if the University will release any information prior to the recruiting banquet tonight? As soon as anyone hears anything, please update here. I am really hoping we get Kemp or Bland too.

To those that attend tonight, please give us very detailed reports of your thoughts of the video, who should be studs or duds, etc.

Thank you

Last update on scout.com on Bland. No major offers yet, looks good for us.
