Big Sky Conference

Boise area QB Rovig becomes first MSU commit for 2017

on

Tucker Rovig grew up idolizing Boise State players like Matt Miller, Byron Hout and Gerald Alexander during the Broncos’ heyday last decade under Chris Petersen. Now Rovig will get a chance to play for the trio’s new team. And there’s no way any other football program will sway the tall, strong-armed quarterback from Meridian, Idaho.

Rovig is a 6-foot-5, 205-pound gunslinger who is preparing for his senior year at Mountain View High School, a Southern Idaho 5A school just 10 miles from Boise State’s Albertson’s Stadium. Alexander was a first-team All-Western Athletic Conference safety for Boise State’s 2006 Fiesta Bowl-winning team before playing parts of five seasons in the NFL. Hout was a standout linebacker for Boise State between 2008-2011. Miller, a Helena Capital product, is BSU’s all-time leader in several career receiving categories who exhausted his eligibility following the 2014 season.
