Welcome to Skyline Sports National Signing Day coverage. On Wednesday, February 1, the Montana Grizzlies and the Montana State Bobcats will add a slew of new faces to their respective rosters and we will have comprehensive coverage in real time.

The Griz have already signed four transfers who are on campus and attending classes at UM. Montana State will add four transfers, including three who are already on campus and attending classes. The Griz will sign 21 players total, including 17 prep prospects who will sign Nation Letters of Intent. The Bobcats will sign 27 total players, including the four transfers and three more preferred walk-ons who will sign housing agreements.

As each new letter of intent comes across the respective fax machines at UM and MSU, Skyline Sports will post capsules on each prospect. Within each capsule, you will find numbers, accolades, film and links to full stories on each prospect’s commitment to their respective schools.

Wednesday afternoon, Kyle Sample will meet with Montana head coach Bob Stitt in Missoula to recap the Grizzlies’ signing class. Colter Nuanez will meet with Montana State head coach Jeff Choate for thoughts on his second signing class. Skyline Sports will provide stories recapping the recruiting season along with videos of the press conferences announcing each class to accompany what will total 48 player capsules.
