Montana State coach Brent Vigen expanded on how important California is for his program's recruiting footprint. He also explained the joy for these athletes to return to their home state.
"Those guys, from that state, to get a chance to play closer to home, whether its San Luis Obispo, Davis or Sacramento, I think is something in recruiting was advantageous to them," Vigen explained of the Bobcats competing in the Big Sky against the likes of Cal Poly, UC Davis and Sacramento State.
"You know, we have guys from all over the state. More southern than northern, so this is the most southern of the three stops, so, I know it's exciting for them."
Montana State and Cal Poly kick off at 6 p.m. Mountain time on Saturday on your local Scripps Sports Station.
