Not often you get to turn an entire family from the dark side of the divide. Pretty cool.

Jace is one heck of a football player. His junior campaign was cut short due to injury but he was an all-state player for Dillon as a sophomore. Can develop at WR, HB, TE, Sam, Will, or both safety spots. He's longer and a different overall athlete than RJ. I like him as flex TE to take advantage of his athleticism and mismatch ability with linebackers in the slot or up the seam. The kid can really run. Converting this family to MSU took a mixture of "Bob Stitt" and "one phone call to RJ". Now two brothers get to play football together in blue and gold. Cool deal!

Thanks Bob! He is still paying dividends for the Bobcats.

Like I said above, Jace only got to play in 6 games last year but his impact was there every game. His junior tape is a steady mix of his range as a safety/linebacker and receiving skill set as a bigger slot WR/TE.

My favorite highlight is at 1:40 where he runs down Jace Klucewich on a pitch option play for only a 2 yard gain. Jace K. is one of the best football players in the state and is known for his speed. Fitzgerald reads it, reacts by washing the play to the sideline, and finishes with a sure tackle.
