FanHouse Nick Montana

Nick Montana, the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Joe Montana, has given an oral commitment to the University of Washington, his Oaks Christian High School coach, Bill Redell, told FanHouse.

Montana, who is listed at 6-feet-1, 180 pounds, is ranked the No. 13 quarterback in the class of 2010 by Scout.com and gives new Washington coach Steve Sarkisian a potential program-changing quarterback. Montana threw for 33 touchdowns and seven interceptions as a junior and possesses many of the same skills as his famous father, according to Redell.

"He can run, he's got tremendous feet, he's got great timing on his passes," Redell said. "He's got great touch on the ball. He's got great leadership ability. He's the type of kid who can throw on the run, like his dad could."

Cheyenne Woods and Nick Montana better watch out, because we have a new family member to gush about.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to Dylan Favre, the nephew of a guy by the name of Brett Favre, who is a junior quarterback at Bay Saint Louis (Miss.) St. Stanislaus and is breaking records like his crazzzzzy uncle.

Dylan has already set a state record with 48 touchdowns this season, including eight on the ground, and might be even more popular on the national recruiting trail were it not for his undersized build. Baby Favre is only 5-foot-10, 180 pounds and is only being lightly recruited by Ole Miss, Southern Miss, UCLA and Notre Dame, which have sent Dylan standard-issue letters.

While Drew Brees continues to break the size mold for NFL quarterbacks (he's listed at 6-foot but I've stood next to the man and he wouldn't be 6-foot on stilts), most quarterbacks these days are between 6-foot-2 and 6-foot-5. It's going to be hard to convince coaches to take a chance on a guy that is already at a disadvantage before ever touching a football.
