2027 Montana Recruiting (17) Verbals & (27) Offers (2) 2028 Offers

Just some thoughts..

The Griz have not verballed a RB or a QB yet, Most coaches want one from each class. These are the 2 offers we know of.
QB- Jaxon Hunt 6'3" 195 (Mountain Ridge HS) South Jordan, UT (T 6/22/26)
RB- Mark Mathis 6'0" 205 (Woodbury HS) Woodbury, MN (T 5/13/26) (X 3-Star)

The instate battle comes down to this, UM has done very well instate but if they land Humphrey and Olson it will be a blowout.
LB/RB- Lane Humphrey 6' 1" 205 (Billings West HS) Billings, MT (T 11/29/25)
WR/S- Walker Olson 6'4" 200 (Billings West HS) Billings, MT (11/29/25)
Also... S/WR- Walker Rodell 6'1" 180 (Bozeman HS) Bozeman, MT
Also... WR- Rusch Yeager 6' 5" 180 (Choteau HS) Choteau, MT (3/4/26) Griz OV 6/10/26

Gotta believe the Griz are looking for one more for the OL
OL- Mason Bush 6'5" 285 (Davis HS) Kaysville, UT (T 5/12/26)
OL- Jonathan Olmos 6'6" 280 (Millikan HS) Long Beach, CA (T 4/24/26)
OL- Will Brockermeyer 6'3" 250 (Notre Dame HS) Sherman Oaks, CA (T 4/20/26)
OL- Dylan Felli 6'3" 275 (Mission Viejo, CA) Mission Viejo, CA (T 1/28/26) UM visit on 4/11/26

UM has 3 WR verballed already, 4 would seem a lot.
WR- Chad Wakumoto Jr. 6'1" 190 (Etiwanda HS) Fontana, CA (T 5/6/26)
WR- Stephen Ouvaroff 6'2" 185 (Salesian HS) Los Angeles, CA (T 4/23/26)

I think UM will sign one of these 2
TE/DE- Hunter Daniels 6'4" 225 Glacier HS) Kalispell, MT (T 6/23/26)
TE- Landon Bult 6'5" 215 (Eagle HS) Eagle, ID (T 5/18/26) (X 3 Star)

DE- Jesse Laumasima 6'3" 235 (Millikan HS) Long Beach, CA (T 4/24/26) A lot of UM on his FB page
DE- Santino Burden 6'3" 225 (Mount Healthy HS) Cincinnati, OH (T 2/18/26) (Class of 2026) Would be a great get, but he's from Ohio and hasn't been picked up yet???
DE/LB- Colton Heimlicher 6'4" 235 (Cherry Creek HS) Parker. CO (T 3/10/26) (X 3 Star) Army, AF, Navy, Columbia have all offered

TE/DE- Xenophon Fleischmann 6'5" 235 (Century HS) Pocatello, ID (T 4/20/26) X Pinned Air Force

Armbruster is a heavy Griz lean. He's trying to keep getting to know Johnson and Sanders first. Whole staff thinks he'd be the jewel of the class, and defensive staff expects him to at minimum be in the 2 deep playing a lot as a sophomore in their scheme. Even the offensive coaches were crazy about him at camp. Legitimate Big10 athlete and even being recruited by a few, and the Pac teams too. But nobody has room in their classes without decommits happening because he is a late recruiting bloomer. State likes him too but can't offer until their board clears out a bit.

I think most of us did. I am really beginning to wonder about Humphrey and Olson. I am not a fan of them taking so long to commit. To me that means someone is working them hard. Maybe the Puds, maybe not, and maybe it's just one of those gut feelings that's wrong. I'd like to see them go UM. As far as I'm concerned, BK and co. have already gotten the in-state blow out.

I haven't found ANYTHING on Santino Burden committing to any school. The only thing I have found is a hashtag see you in the MAC. IF Bk & Co are working on him I wouldn't be surprised to see him go to UM.
