Brian Campbell, S: A redshirt last season, Taylor Sheridan turned heads in the spring with his physical play in the defensive front.

Spotlight – Max Kimberly: Considered one of Montana State's best pre-World War II players, Max Kimberly's career fell at a crucial time in Bobcat athletics history. Originally from Stevensville, he was a three-year standout at tackle, from 1936-38, which meant he played in the Bobcats' final year in the 'old' Rocky Mountain Conference, when MSC annually played league games against Wyoming, BYU, Utah State and Utah. The Cats finished 1936 3-5, then played the 1937 season to a 3-4-1 ledger. In 1938, with Schubert Dyche replacing Jack Croft as head coach, the Cats posted a 3-5-1 record. Kimberly returned to the program in the years after World War II, working intermittently as assistant football coach and head wrestling coach. He was regarded as a true Bobcat during his many decades associated with Montana State.
