The LA Times is reporting that QB Nick Montana has committed to the University of Washington.
Nick, the son of NFL Hall of Famer Joe Montana, is Scout.com’s #13 ranked QB for 2010.
This certainly takes a lot of the sting out of Skyline QB Jake Heaps’ commitment last week to BYU. Sark appears to be making good on his reputation as a California recruiter.
Nick Montana is a pupil of Steve Clarkson, a Cali QB guru who has worked with Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Leinart, Jimmy Clausen, Matt Barkley, and Terrelle Pryor among many many others. Jake Locker recently served as an instructor at one of his camps. Clarkson has received criticism for his role in the AAU-ization of college football recruiting, but results like that are tough to argue with.
Welcome aboard young Mr. Montana. I’m headed to a Mervyn’s to celebrate. Are those still around?
Here’s a Sportscenter feature on Nick’s high school, Oaks Christian, where his warmup act on the JV features Trevor Gretzky (son of Wayne) and Trey Smith (son of Will). It’s a regular game of Backyard Football down there.

that’s clearly steve young in that cartoon, not joe montana
Gotta love Sark planting a flag in the LA area. Been a while since that has happened.
Who’s the Packer chasing the girl? Mark Chmura?
Who’s going with me to the Sept. 18th Skyline vs. Oaks Christian game?
We should go to that game.
Also admin, I know that’s Steve Young. Unfortunately there were no Backyard Football images of Joe Montana, so I was forced to trust the reader to make a leap. Oops.
The girl definitely looks young enough for skdub to be the Packer.
