AJ Hotchkins 6-0 230 Jr. FB/LB Tigard, OR
The region’s most notorious hitter picked up his 3rd offer from Montana Tuesday and the list of schools interested seems to only be growing. AJ projects as a high level D1 full back with most of his time spent on defense at the D end position.

He’s a kid that will either play the backer position or be a FB at the next level. Referencing the offer AJ says, “I think its a great opportunity and I like that they are a top D1-AA school in the country.” He continued, “Coach called to let me know that I had a scholarship and that they looked forward to recruiting me.. They were jacked about my film and would like me to visit campus.”

Hotchkins had already been offered by Idaho and Portland State and is on the bubble with a host of other schools. He has an outstanding work ethic, and has been training with us for the last year on a consistent basis. AJ was part of our Team Oregon squad that beat Team Alaska in the winter showcase 40-29 where he was named the defensive MVP.

He’s a great kid and will lead a top 5 ranked Tigard team into 2013. We will bring you updates as they happen.



Shane Bowman 6-4 250 Jr. DE Bellevue, WA
The region’s top D end and #2 overall D lineman continued his offer tear and is far from done. The Grizzlies made a good move offering the big man who comes off the edge as quick as any kid in the northwest.
The Wolverines have one of the top D line tandems in the country in Bowman and Marcus Griffin (6-3 290 Jr.), who just MVP’d our most recent Camp/Combine running a 4.92 40 yard dash.

Referencing the offer Shane says, “I’m just grateful and excited and will be working and playing with my heart to achieve my goals”. The Wolverines win state title after state title, but its the character of the kids that sticks out when looking at the Bellevue athletes. Head coach Butch Goncharoff deserves a great deal of credit, instilling a mind set within the football community that has resonated.

Expect Shane to pick up some mid major and Pac 12 type offers in the near future, as he has the ideal frame and skill set to play at the highest level. Bowman’s younger brother Ryan will be a kid that could follow in his brother’s foot steps, as the brothers are nothing but class on and off the field.
 
OL Morgan Richey.
It seems like there hasn’t been many days that have gone by this spring where a player from Bellevue (Wash.) wasn’t picking up a scholarship offer.

One Wolverine player who has been racking up the offers as of late is OL Morgan Richey.

Back at the end of March, The University of Idaho got the ball rolling as the first school to offer the 6-foot-5, 280-pounder a scholarship. “It was great getting my first offer from Idaho. I can’t wait to try and get to Moscow to meet the staff and see the campus,” Richey tells NEI. “One of my teammates from last season, Rueben Mwehla, signed there and I have heard nothing but good things from him about Idaho.”

Shortly after picking up the Idaho offer, Richey received offers number two and three over the span of a few weeks, from two Big Sky programs North Dakota and Northern Colorado.

“I was excited to get offers from both of those schools,” Richey says. “I am hoping to fit campus visits to both of them in my summer plans.”

Immediately following the offer from UNC, Richey landed an offer from Colorado State, a program he has some familiarity with. “I know a little about the program and how Coach McElwain is turning things around, so I am excited they think I can be a part of that,” Richey says. “Fort Collins is a great area – I have been to Colorado a few times and just love the state. I will definitely get out there for a visit during summer. it is the kind of place i could enjoy even without football, which is important.”

Last week he picked up his 5th offer from Nevada, another Mountain West school. “I am pretty familiar with the program and the success they’ve had the last few seasons. I am very aware of what they do offensively with the pistol and running the ball, and that’s something I am really a fan of. It’s definitely another school I plan to trying to get out to see this summer,” he says.

And just last night, Richey picked up yet another offer from Montana.

His ability to play multiple spots on the line is something that makes him a very attractive prospect to colleges. He says the schools recruiting him have wanted him at guard, with the possibility of playing tackle depending on team needs.

Richey has also been active in visiting several programs who are recruiting him, but have yet to offer. This spring he took unofficial visits to Stanford and Oregon, as well as taking in Oregon State’s Junior Day and UW’s Spring Game.

Morgan is currently NEI’s No. 2 ranked OL for the 2014 class, and is a player whose stock has risen steadily during the offseason. It would not be surprising at all to see him land several more offers before the season arrives.

Yep.... Thanks again for the help

Deboski was clocked at 4.45. Bigger schools have offered, though the griz are in a great possition if he waits too long and schools find other"taller" WR.

I saw this kid play last year, he's a very gifted athlete.
 
Thanks again Payton.

Cool article about Tyrone Holmes Family I dont think we have offered any of these guys but I bet we do and we have a good chance to land them.

Anyone familiar with Southern Oregon Football is going to know the last name Holmes. Tyrone (Holmes) is currently at the University of Montana, out of Eagle Point, and is a potential D1aa All American in the coming years.

Now the attention has been turned to Austin (6-4 245 Jr. OL/DL) and Tristen Holmes (6-1 170 So. ATH) out of EP and N.Medford, both of whom are standout student athletes. Academics within the family has always taken first priority, as you would be hard pressed to find a more well rounded group.

Tyrone was 3.9+ student taking AP classes and both Austin and Tristen are 4.0 kids. The oldest Holmes had multiple offers, but was under recruited and is a Pac 12 type athlete. He was the Co- Defensive POY in the Midwestern Conference as a senior, earning 1st team all state honors. His Grizzlies profile page says, “He has the ability and work ethic to be one of Montana’s best ever at the position, and will start at one of the two D end spots”.

We have had a chance to see both younger athletes over the last few months and they have looked outstanding. Each is currently ranked among the top 10 athletes at their position within the state of Oregon for there class.

We have seen them at our elite events up in Portland, on the camp and combine tour in Salem and Medford, and most recently at the Battle in Seattle 7 on 7 tournament where Tristen locked kids up. There work ethic on and off the field speaks for itself, and we couldn’t be bigger advocates of the family.

Referencing the up coming season Austin says, ” I would like to earn 1st team all conference honors on both offense and defense, and as a team I would like us to make it past the 2nd round of the playoffs”. Eagle Point has been a pretty consistent .500 team over the last few years and they would like to change that.

Talking about the family dynamic he says, “I think our hard work and willingness to make sacrifices is what has made us successful thus far… The way we have been raised has played a huge role in our lives… We have grown up with the expectation that we would get good grades and try our best on and off the field.”

Tristen reiterated some of the same thoughts, “We have always been pretty close, our dad’s are brothers and our mom’s are cousins”. He continued, “Our parents have always been supportive, driving us to get better.. My parents are tough checking grades almost daily and putting that before anything else.”

The youngest Holmes is an outstanding basketball player and is climbing the charts quickly with his overall athleticism. He averaged 12 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists playing varsity basketball as a sophomore and could technically be a freshman. His size 14 shoe speaks to how big he still might get, as he is one of the fastest rising recruits in the region.

Austin was an all league kid on both sides of the ball last year, but has some loftier goals this season. He says, “I see myself playing defense at the next level, just because of my body type…Although I would be just as happy on the offensive side of the ball if that’s where the team needed me.”

Regardless of where these two end up they will be successful in life. Its inspiring to see a family as down to earth and focused as these kids are. The Eagle Point athletes are a group that we really like, and North Medford looks to be one of the fastest rising teams in the Northwest.

All in and all we see some very good things happening down in Southern Oregon. We will keep you updated as Austin and Tristen’s stock continues to rise into 2013.
