Every Thursday during the college football season, we look back on some two-star prospects who are outplaying their high school ranking and helping their teams win games. This week, we look at a trio of prospects who flew under the radar as recruits but made plenty of plays on the big stage over the weekend.

MORE CHECKUPS: Five-Stars | Four-stars | Three-stars

As a recruit: Montgomery had to wait longer than some to get recruiting attention, but a trio of schools, Marshall, Illinois and Iowa State, battled it out for his services late in process in 2016. After visiting all three schools in January of that year, Montgomery announced his commitment to Cyclones on National Signing Day.

What he did this week: Montgomery has been a consistent contributor since setting foot on campus and he’s gotten even better in his second year in the program. In Saturday’s upset victory over Oklahoma, Montgomery had 55 yards rushing and a touchdown and caught seven passes for 89 yards. He’s well on his way to doubling his numbers from his freshman season and has a chance to make his mark in the Iowa State record books by the time his career is over.

As a recruit: Luvu received just one offer during his high school career, courtesy of Washington State and the native of American Samoa jumped at the chance to move to the mainland and play for the Cougars, committing to Wazzu just prior to the start of his senior season.

What he did this weekend: Luvu has developed into quite the playmaker on the Washington State defense and this weekend was another standout performance. In the Cougars 30-10 win at Oregon, he racked up nine total tackles, including two for loss and one sack. Washington State is having one of the best seasons in recent memory and unheralded players like Luvu are a big reason why.

As a recruit: Despite playing his high school ball at Louisiana powerhouse program Neville, Turpin didn’t receive the type of recruiting interest one would expect considering his high school production. Many programs were scared off by his size, but Louisiana Tech, Texas Tech and TCU all came through late and hosted Turpin for official visits. He committed to the Horned Frogs a few weeks before Signing Day 2015.

What he did this weekend: Turpin has wowed since the day he set foot in Fort Worth, putting up huge numbers and fitting right into the Horned Frogs offense. In Saturday’s home victory over West Virginia, he didn’t put up his usual big numbers in the receiving game, but instead came through as a passer, throwing a 48-yard touchdown pass to quarterback Kenny Hill on a trick play. Turpin’s numbers are down from his phenomenal freshman season, but he’s still a threat to make a big play whenever he touches the ball.
