2025 QB Ryan Montgomery Scrimmage Highlights
2025 Findlay (Ohio) QB Ryan Montgomery had his first scrimmage of the season over the weekend and he picked up right where he left off a year ago. Montgomery is checking in at 6-foot-3, 205 pounds, so he's had a big offseason and taken a big jump physically. I continue to believe he's one of the best QBs in the Midwest regardless of class - and each time I've seen him throw live, he's improved. As for his recruitment, it will be interesting to see what happens here. Obviously, Montgomery's older brother, Luke, is committed to Ohio State, but the Buckeyes are bringing in 2024 QB Dylan Raiola, who can make a case to be the best QB in the country in any class. Clemson and Georgia have come hard after him as both staffs made trips to Ohio to stop by the high school and then Montgomery repaid them with a visit in June. Notre Dame had him on campus for a spring practice, but it seems like the Irish and Michigan are seeing how open he is to other programs given Luke is committed to Ohio State. At this point, I think he's more open than most think, but programs are going to need to recruit him hard. I expect him back at Notre Dame for either the Stanford or Clemson game based on Findlay's football schedule. I also expect Montgomery to make fall visits to Ohio State, Clemson, LSU, Wisconsin and Tennessee. Offers: Georgia, Georgia Tech, Miami (OH), Michigan, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State, Pitt, Tennessee, Toledo, Virginia Tech and Wisconsin Scrimmage HighlightsScrimmage 1 for the Findlay Trojans!@RyanMonty2025 @FootballFindlay pic.twitter.com/awNwIcTPVl— Mike Montgomery (@montymont6) August 6, 2022

2026 QB Dia Bell
2026 American Heritage School (Fla.) QB Dia Bell is a name to watch over the next few years as he develops. He's got accuracy and a big arm - and it will only increase as he adds more size and strength. Bell camped at Notre Dame over the summer and had a good performance. The 5-foot-10, 160-pounder also has good genes as his father is former NBA player Raja Bell. I'm not going to hype him like I did last year with 2025 Ryan Montgomery, but Bell will have a chance to be pretty good if he can get a little bigger.2 weeks out.

Coaches on the Road | 5.4
Notre Dame offensive coordinator Tommy Rees will be in Kansas City doing some area recruiting on Wednesday.We believe running backs coach Deland McCullough will be in the Orlando area today. There is a good chance he stops by Boone High School to check on 2023 electric receiver Aidan Mizell, who the Irish just offered.Speaking of electric receivers, Chansi Stuckey (electric himself) will stop by Grayson (Ga.) high school to check on 2024 receiver Joseph Stone Jr., who is one of the top prospects in the class. Stuckey is also expected to continue dropping by schools in the ATL. area. Offensive line coach Harry Hiestand is expected to make two stops today as he'll be at Oceanside Collegiate Academy (S.C.) to check on top 2023 offensive lineman Monroe Freeling, who is fresh off his visit to South Bend. He'll be back on June 10th for his official visit. Hiestand is also expected to stop at Dillon High School (S.C.) to check on 2024 offensive lineman Josiah Thompson, who received an early offer from Notre Dame. Defensive coordinator Al Golden will remain in the New Jersey area today. We expected him to swing by Bergen Catholic and others. Notre Dame defensive line coach Al Washington will also remain in Maryland o Wednesday. After offering several prospects on Tuesday, Washington is expected to check on St. Paul's School star Ernest Willor Jr., who the Irish offered on St. Patrick's Day. Cornerbacks coach Mike Mickens will do area recruiting in Northwest Ohio. We expect him to stop by Findlay High School to check on 2025 quarterback Ryan Montgomery. Safeties coach Chris O'Leary will be doing area recruiting around Tallahassee while special teams coordinator Brian Mason is expected to continue his rapid swing through every major high school in Indy.ISlide Black Notre Dame Fighting Irish Tonal Slide
