Knight and Ostmo- Good Update

It sounds like these guys are healthy and improved. I'm hearing both are at or slightly over 220 lbs, and in top 5 fastest GRIZ football players. Sounds like, they've busted ass to be better than ever.

I think the backfield is in great standing. Praying they healthy and the OL plays well.
 
Great news... our RB should be loaded, also excited for Gillman coming in and all the youngsters who got reps last year. He we can block in pass protection at the RB spot look out.
 
Thought it would be a lightning and thunder combo, but each one has the lightning and thunder it appears! Didn't realize Ostmo had that kind of speed. Who is the fastest, Flowers?

I’m guessing Ostmo’s speed doesn’t translate well on video cus he has always looked more thunder then lightning.

It depends on the distance. I'd think, Flowers would be the fastest at any distance, 40 yards to 100 yards. I'd be shocked if he isn't top 5 in each.

Fontes sure looks fast to me as well.

Then again, some guys are smooth, not as fast as they look. Some guys don't look fast, but are. Ostmo is a terrific example of that.
 
Ostmo was a professional baseball center field prospect. He has worked on his breakaway speed since he has last played for the Griz:

Aaron Fontes, the 3 star, Div 1A offer player at receiver, has wheels. And will be a deep threat the next 3 seasons.

I would venture to guess Junior Bergen is up there with those guys. I hope people forget about him.

Imagine if you will: Bergen in the slot, lined up against a LB….

Oh, wait, we don’t have to imagine it. It happened the 2nd play of the game against the ‘Scats. :lol: :lol:

Expect a lot of THAT in 2022. :clap: :clap:
 
Great to hear they are both doing well. I think Xavier Harris will continue to surprise as well. Let’s not forget what he did against Washington.

Seems like that would be a smart move. He could work on his conditioning as his body matured. Plus they could insert him into up to four games for some live action to measure his progress.
 
The team has been running 10 yard timed splits for the past couple weeks and Knight ran the fastest time! That includes over flowers and Fontes! Pretty impressive for coming off knee surgery! Super excited for the man
 
I had read back in the day that White and Cotton were the speedsters, at least out of high school.......looking at our roster and the team speed is pretty darn impressive.

That is awesome!!! Bigger, faster, stronger.
 
hopefully they will become osmoknight, (usually capitalized), two as one, saviors of griz football, at least until the quarter finals?
