2024 Montana Recruits - Tier 2
Posted: Thu Jan 18, 2024 5:01 pm
Tier 2 - "The Blue Chips"
Prospects in this tier:
- have shown the ability to be full-scholarship FCS football players out of high school
- have shown the ability to be preferred walk-on FBS football players out of high school
- will commonly receive full scholarship offers from the two in-state schools while also receiving interest from out-of-state FCS programs
- may NOT redshirt if they sign with a FCS school
- should push for playing time early (true freshman or redshirt freshman year) either on special teams or in a rotation (depends on position)
- players in this tier are commonly referred to as "one of the top prospects in the state" when brought up in conversation by media/coaches
- demonstrate a mismatch on tape in athletic ability, size, smarts, and technique while on the field in high school but not as consistently as Tier 1
- commonly have been selected All-State multiple years at their position(s) during high school
- 100% get selected as starters for Shrine Game
- have potential to be multi-year all-conference players at the FCS level with the possibility of being named All-American at least once
