I don't know who recruited incoming high school LB Bridger Salvevold from Class C Culbertson, maybe Coop, maybe Tim, maybe Bobby himself, but whoever did, he didn't wind up in Culbertson, Montana on the North Dakota border over 600 miles from Missoula by accident !!!
Our staff has been busting their butts not only recruiting high-school kids from Culbertson to Hawaii, but our new portal transfers from Power 5 schools Tenn., BYU, Arizona State, from Big Sky Rivals UC Davis, Idaho and EWU, to some studs from Div. II, the NAIA, and JUCO's-our staff deserves our gratitude for their dedication, their recruiting intelligence--Should we offer this kid instead of that kid ?--and their work ethic--they have put in hundreds of hours on the phone and computer and thousands of miles driving and flying, staying in hotel rooms, eating some good and not-so-good restaurant food and away from their families to recruit our incoming class !!!
And finally, Payton deserves a lot of credit for putting the high school and portal transfers pages together, now combined--he has had to track a lot of outgoing and especially incoming student athletes and that is very time consuming !!!
