Seems like a perfect Montana guy. Seems like a bright kid. And he is large.

As others have said, these videos are very cool. Great idea to do them. A good way to see the new players and get an idea of their personalities.

"The 6-foot-7, 300-pound Johnson made two starts in his four seasons at Cal. He started one game in 2022 and one in 2021 as a redshirt freshman. He saw action in five games in 2021 and eight games in 2022."

Only played in 1 game last season. 2 starts for Cal shows that he's got good potential.

Buried on the depth chart, like so many kids at big schools. So great that he’s going to get the opportunity to contribute, and possibly, regularly, play football. The FCS gives them a chance.

Good point. We seem to get a number of those types of linemen, who rise and excel when they get to MT. Sometimes a new opportunity, a new chance, and a chance of scenery can do wonders. I've noticed that in both college and professional sports over the years. The Griz coaches seem to be good at finding guys like that, who will excel at UM. The 3 graduating o-lineman. Harris at d-end. Todd at d-end. I'm sure many others.

Not exactly a drop down, but Cook is a transfer QB who ended up in the League as a lineman. That really has to be a feather in the cap of the coaching staff in terms of kids they have developed from scratch and on a short time.

I randomly got paired up golfing last week with a former Cal OLineman that played with him. He said he has every physical tool in the bag to be an nfl talent. He said his only downside was he just needed a lot of time to develop and get coached up. Time Cal didn’t give him.

With the right coaches at Montana and assuming he’ll get ton of playing time. The guy could turn out to be outstanding.

He needs to get in the weight room. He's not ready for prime time.
