Merek Mihelish Commits!

Probably well known by most on here, but I’ll say it anyway. One of the big things he brings to the table is that his dad is the head football coach at Helena Capital.
He is a tremendous athlete. Had a hamstring injury that severely hindered him in track this year, but has had big time hurdle times previously. Is a true dual threat, who most likely will run track as well. Was leaning toward MSU, but apparently not anymore. Go Griz!
 
I don't see speed. He seems to have pretty good vision. I can see him as a Safety before a QB. I know someone is going to be upset at this, but that's okay, it's just my perception. UM has a pretty decent stable of QB's right now. I am probably wrong, but I'd bet a dollar he's gonna be on the defensive side of the ball.

You do realize he is being recruited as an “ath” and not qb, right?

I’ve seen him play multiple times. Certainly one of the top in-state recruits. He’s got the frame and athleticism but not sure if he’s got the hitter mentality and maybe that's why he’s listed as “ath” right now, imho
 
He has played very sparingly on defense until now. Capital generally prefers their quarterbacks play only offense. I could see him being a specialist, like a returner or wildcat quarterback, maybe even run end around plays from an inside receiver. He can run the ball really well. Could play as a defensive back, but obviously would have to learn that position. He has talent, no doubt about that.

I do realize that. I am speculating, from his POV, he might want to play a position he is very comfortable with, and that would be QB. However, he also played SS, and I think with the stable of QB's UM currently has, for team purposes, once again, me speculating (because I am no one but a fan who likes to speculate and try to guess what the coaches are doing with the team) they will probably put him in that role. Who knows, maybe he gets around those nasty Griz Safetieses and decides he like crushing the souls of his enemies under his feet?

I do know that he was not recruited with any intention of playing QB and he has no notion that he will. It sounds like the plan is either DB or WR.
