JLM

He is approaching the all time Griz record for career receptions. Anyone know how close he is? Close enough to break the record this week?
 
did some digging

JLM started the season with 175 career receptions and had 8 on Saturday putting him at 183. He passed Jon Talmadge with 176 and Shalon Baker with 182.

He sits just behind Jamaal Jones who had 184.
Matt Wells is second all time with 189.
192 is the mark to beat set by Raul Pacheco.

JLM is in great company and rarified air, needs 9 to tie and ten to have the all time Griz record!
With plenty of games left and hopefully a playoff game or two he should shatter the record.
 
So awesome to see this. If I recall correctly he came initially as a walk on and once they saw his electrifying stuff on the field it did not take long to get him a scholarship
 
Kramer didn't think he'd be worth the effort to have him play with his brother at Idaho State.
"Couer d’Alene WR to walk on with Griz"

Jerry Louie-McGee, a 5-foot-9, 170-pound wide receiver from Coeur d’ Alene’s Lake City High will join the Montana football team as a walk-on.

Louie-McGee has been admitted to the university and will join the team for fall camp in August.

With the addition of Louie-McGee, Montana will enter fall camp with 19 receivers.


A 5-A All-Idaho selection, Louie-McGee played several positions in Lake City’s wide-open spread offense. Out of the backfield, he rushed for 757 yards and seven touchdowns. As a receiver, he finished with 1,104 receiving yards and 10 touchdowns.

Louie-McGee, who ran a 48.64 second 400 meters to win the Idaho 5A title as a junior, also returned two punts and two kickoffs for touchdowns and averaged more than 47 yards per kick return as he was selected the Inland Empire League’s Most Valuable Player.

“He was a playmaker for us. He’s a three-year starter and in the 21 years I’ve been here I’ve only had 10 three-year starters,” said Lake City coach Van Troxel, who was a quarterback at Montana in the 1970s.

Lake City finished the regular season 8-1 before losing to Mt. View in the semifinals of the 5A playoffs. Division 5A is Idaho’s largest prep division.

“He makes people miss and he has great determination,” said Troxel, whose son, Matt, now the offensive line coach at Idaho State, was a receiver at Montana from 2004-07. “My favorite play this year, he caught about a 45-yard pass and scored against Post Falls. There was a block behind the play and they called it back. He was pissed off and he was coming back up the sidelines and said, ‘Give me the ball.’ I called a little bubble screen and he goes 55 yards for a touchdown and breaks about four or five tackles. He’s got that kind of desire.”

Troxel said Louie-McGee was recruited heavily by NAIA and Division II schools. Louie-McGee looked into joining his brother, Tucker, at Idaho State, but was told he was too small.

“Everybody initially was worried about his size, it’s tough to make it at that level and you have to have some pretty special things to make it in the Big Sky at that size,” Troxel said.

Troxel added that Louie-McGee was hesitant about competing with Tucker for a roster spot in the Bengals’ crowded receiver corps.

Troxel was worried about small players playing in the Big Sky?

We can thank Mike Ferriter for recruiting JLM to UM.
