Good Morning Griz Nation!

Just 8 days until National Signing Day. Dylan is working hard in the gym 5 days a week and is excited for the opportunity to compete on the OL. Weight now up to 293. Speed and footwork significantly improving as opening day gets closer. Bonds with incoming class continue to develop through constant contact with one another. I truly believe this will be a special class. Can't wait for the season to begin!

I can only speak for myself, but I love these updates!!! :thumb:

Not that it matters, but you can also speak for me for this topic anytime. Probably preferable that you do. I'm with you FutureGrizDad, this could be a group for the ages. :clap:

Go griz!

Size is a factor, but like another sport that men like, technique is just as important.

Rich Eisen asked Howie Long yesterday if he could still bench 300. He said "No, but I can throw a guy to the ground that benches 500".

When was the last year the Griz had a Great O line 2001??? They have had some huge olives but that didn't make them all that good.

Holy shit! Dude's been putting in work! Looking forward to getting him to Missoula! He's going to be a big part of a very special team.

^This^ brought a smile to my face. Good morning!

Me too. It's funny we keep talking about the 2 other big boys because of the star factor, but I think Dylan Eickmeyer and his measly 2 stars is going to be a stud.

Thayne is definitely a tackle, hard to say where Torres will be put....could be inside or outside. Dylan is definitely an interior lineman. We're gonna need him BIG TIME!

I am really looking forward to 2017-2019 O-Line performance.

Too bad some GRIZ fans don't have the patients for an young OL to develop. It normally takes to their JR years to start seeing consistent performances. That is why I am not worried about this upcoming year's OL. Most the OL will have 2 years under their belt. At least it looks like you have realistic expectations for this incoming class. I hope rest of GRIZ NATION does as well. :thumb:

People do realize that it's almost impossible for all FCS programs to get the 6'5" 300LB lineman out of HS...unless they have grade issues, etc. If it's not an under the radar recruit from Montana, the Griz best strategy is get the 260-270lb recruits and let them grow and develop into players as RS-Sophs.
