Next #37

[argh!]

IF Robby Hauck comes in and shines in spring camp, I feel he should be named the next 37.

That would return the original tradition of handing it down to the best young Montana defensive player! The kid competed at a very high level of HS football, and still racked up 170 tackles his SR year alone. Read that again people. He was a four-time team MVP. Read that again people. He will undoubtedly be the best defender from Montana over his time. And to those that say he wasn't born here? So what. No where does it say you have to be born here. He lived formative years here. He has more roots here than a 100 year old tree in the Bitteroot has. He is Montana thru and thru, and more so than a lot of Griz fans. And certainly will be a standout player! He would be the most exciting 37 to watch, flying around racking up 170 tackles. :thumb: :clap:

Robby didn't graduate from a Montana school nor did he play high school football in Montana at all. I don't even believe he was born in Montana. To me, those appear to be strong prerequisites for becoming #37 based on prior recipients. I will give you this, despite those other facts Robby is Montanan through and through.

so through and through that he chose nau out of high school(bqm)

Can you validate the offer he had from Montana?

Everyone keeps assuming that Robbie will be cleared to play by the NCAA this upcoming season. As far as I know, and Bobby stated so on Feb. signing day, that has not been decided.

 

[BWahlberg]

Both Sandry and Sims are really well deserving guys for it. It's been in the D-line family for a little while now with the last 3 in a row being D-line and 7 of the last 9 being D-line guys. I voted for Sims just by playing the odds.

on the surface a good question, and no, other than a narrative someone gave on egriz about stitt's home visit, which seemed to indicate an offer.

under the surface, can you validate that he wasn't(bqm)

Kind of the same logic I used in voting for Sims.

I think it's a an unfair question until the new recruits get a chance to show what they can bring. Case in oint Robby Hauck! He is good enough and deserves a chance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go Griz!

Robby Hauck is not from Montana.

The #37 jersey can only be handed down to a native Montanan.

Do you see the problem here?

 

[signedbewildered]

Last bump for this one.

Deming anyone?

 

[HookedonGriz]

Word on the street is Sims. I think the half time surprise tomorrow may be the passing down.

 

[Sam A. Blitz]

I'm hopeful Sandry can come into this fall healthy. He was never close to 100% last year. He could be a very good safety for us this year.

Saying that, I voted for Sims. He has the ability to be one of the better DL in the FCS this year.

I think the 37 number will be presented at halftime. I kind of agree it seems like the initial thought is Sims. Both are worth in my opinion.

Why would they do it at halftime? No one will be there to see it.

agree ,,,,that is one thing that is certain .......

 

[dirtysoup]

You can't go wrong with Sandry or Sims. Both would do the number proud. I believe the number stays on the d-line.

Just curious - how have they done this in the past?

It is up to the owner of 37 to decide. I believe the last handoff was presented as a Xmas gift.

That being the case, I’d think making it a bigger deal would be ok. They printed it on the field, must be some kind of big deal.
