The shadow looms large for Colten Curry but if the intriguing prospect continues packing on pounds, he might outgrow his father, both literally and figuratively.
The 6-foot-7, 210-pound son of former Montana standout offensive lineman Scott Curry is already taller than his former NFL Draft pick father. Colten has a long way to catch his dad in terms of mass — Scott played at 6-foot-5, 290 pounds during his stellar career for the Grizzlies — but the potential for a massive man is already there.
His athletic bloodlines and gifted frame were enough to catch the eye of Montana head coach Bob Stitt and his staff. The Valier senior-to-be attended the Griz individual camp in Missoula in June. Less than a week later, Stitt and his staff offered the 6-man stud a partial scholarship to sign with Montana in February of 2018. Curry wasted no time committing to the program he’s grown up loving for most of his life.
