Sean Hatten realized Montana State’s true interest in getting him to Bozeman to play football the moment he received eight hand written letters at his home in Bakersfield, California.
The senior at Garces Memorial High School talked with first Montana State recruiting coordinator and primary California recruiter Michael Pitre, then offensive line coach Brian Armstrong and head coach Jeff Choate. It took less than a month from first contact for Hatten to give his verbal commitment to the MSU coaching staff.
