Justus Perkins follows different path to Montana State than father Josh

Not many things in Josh Perkins' life arrive conventionally.

Not his career as a Montana State cornerback, from 1995-99, which by his own admission included several scuffles and hiccups. Not his professional life, highlighted by more ventures than he can name off the top of his head which were a high degree of entrepreneurial success. And certainly not his family life, which is rooted in a classroom on the MSU campus but ranges from the Compton section of Los Angeles to Northern Cheyenne country in Montana.

But one thing about Josh Perkins is clear and direct: his relationship with his son, Justus, now a redshirt freshman offensive lineman on the Bobcat football team.
