Remember Erik Rush?


Under Coach Steve Cain (who has now retired), Erik Rush enjoyed a very solid prep career at Milpitas High. He then signed with Montana State.

As a junior last season, the 6-foot-5 versatile swingman scored 11.1 points and grabbed 4.2 rebounds a game, playing 31 minutes a contest for the Bobcats.

Here's an analysis of Rush for the approaching season: "Put quite simply the most versatile player on the team. He can play all three back court positions and play them well. He has great combination size strength, athleticism, ball skills and the ability to score any where on the court that creates match up problems for opposing teams no matter where he plays. From what I hear he has had a great off season and looks like a beast this season. He will have a great season, but I think the key to having great statistical season that will earn him Big Sky honors may be narrowing his scope. I think if he has jump around between all three positions all season, he may not have the sparkling stats as other players but he will still be the team MVP."
