Gotta love that height and speed, and then combine that with Coach Sitt's offense, and Jed could have a very special career at UM !!!

And who knows, although I am putting the cart before the horse, if he stays healthy and is productive, Jed just might just have an opportunity to continue playing football after he graduates from UM.
 
“I talked to coach Stitt and I really, really liked him and how they ran their offense. That was really the deciding factor plus it’s close to home and it’s Griz football.”

A lot of people are touting other receivers (and rightfully so), you haven't heard a ton about Nagler, BUT Nagler is faster than a BUNCH of them. He's going to be great.
 
Never saw Hadley play football in person. I've seen Nagler play once in each of his last three seasons, and in all three of those games, he was the best football player on the field and it wasn't even remotely close. His breakaway speed at his size was incredible to watch, and stacks up easily to fellow Griz recruits, Corbin, Toure and Akem. After covering high school football for so long, I get pretty numb, but the three times I saw Nagler in person, I was blown away by him. I don't know if that answers the question as it relates to Hadley, but, there ya go.
 
I guarantee it. Best receiver in MT by far. Only one close or in same conversation is Karl Tucker. Hadley behind both those, but also a good receiver.

I had the other perspective. Never saw Nagler play football in person. Though I've been watching Hadley for the past few years. Jacob Hadley is a excellent receiver who could develop into a great one. Time will tell. The cats need to put a few more pounds on him and help him develop his route running skills up to the college level.

Hadley is already 6' 6" and extremely athletic with great body control. If the ball is anywhere in his area he will usually bring it down and have his feet inbounds. He was dealing with an injury for most of the football season but still put up very good numbers. Watching his four touchdown performance versus Dillon early in the season he was clearly the best athlete on that field. All in all, the cats got a good one.

Only time will tell if either Hadley or Nagler can produce in college but it sounds like both certainly have the potential. Hope they both have great careers.
