Nick Montana, son of pro football Hall-of-Famer QB Joe Montana, signed his letter of intent today to play for coach Curtis Johnson and the Tulane Green Wave. Last season, Montana quarterbacked for Mount San Antonio College in Walnut, California, throwing for 2,652 yards and 22 touchdowns leading the team to a division title and an impressive 11-1 record. Prior to that, he had a brief stint at the University of Washington as he played six games as a redshirt-freshman in...
With a last name like Montana, you are almost expected to be great especially under center. Unfortunately, the Montana name did not translate to success for Joe Montana’s eldest son Nate. Now that Nate’s career is all but over (currently plays for the University of Montana), it’s Nick ’s time to carry on the Montana torch. Earlier today, head coach Steve Sarkisian tweeted to the Husky nation that red-shirt freshman Nick Montana will get his first career start as...
Notre Dame’s legendary quarterback Joe Montana is displeased with his alma mater. During the 22nd annual Compeer luncheon appearance at the Riverside Convention Center in Rochester New York, the Golden Domer was asked weather he would consider an athletic director position or head coach position at Notre Dame. His response, “You’re asking me at absolutely the wrong time.” Montana’s terse comment evolved from the way his son Nate Montana was treated during his brief stint at Notre Dame. The...
Legendary Notre Dame QB Joe Montana showed his jealous side yesterday on the Dan Patrick Show presumably because a movie was never made about him and his success. Montana made it very clear, through constant chuckling, that he is not a fan of the inspirational movie Rudy. In his interview, he insinuated that Rudy Ruettiger was more of a joke rather than an inspiration ruining it for Dan Patrick and all the Rudy fans. Even when he said something...
Earlier in the spring season we reported on the success of Nate Montana’s spring game in South Bend. Now it looks like another Montana is shining but over on the west coast. The Huskies’ nation got their first glimpse of Nick Montana during Washington’s annual Spring Game last night. Over 15,000 Huskies fans stood in the wind and rain to watch the son of Hall of Fame QB Joe Montana lead the Purple (No. 2 offense and No ....
The ghost of Montana revisited South Bend this Saturday before a crowd of 27,241 screaming Irish fans. During Notre Dame’s annual spring game, Nate Montana surpassed all expectations as he led his team to victory á la Joe Montana. The young Montana went 18 for 30 throwing for 223 yards, three TDs, and INT to lead the Gold to a thrilling victory over the Blue 27-19. Montana, who played for Pasadena City College last season, is not expected to...
The son of a legend returns to Notre Dame (again). Joe Montana convinced his son to return to the Irish as there is a great opportunity for Nate Montana to take some snaps under center. With the early departure of Jimmy Clausen and the knee injury to Dayne Crist, Brian Kelly is looking for a strong arm to run his offense. With no real prospects in sight, the job is wide open to anyone. In the first go-around, Montana saw very...
