Not sure if this counts as preseason top 25, but it is fun!

I am happy we're not in The Top # 5-- maybe this is wishful thinking on my part, but I think the pollsters are making the same mistake with The Shi__y Kitties that they made with us in 2024, ranking us preseason # 3 largely because we finished #2 behind SDSU in 2023-24 when they beat us in the 2024 NC. We lot a lot of talent last year, and The SK's arguably lost even more from last year's team, and not just TM !!!

Tommy's last name reflects his proud Blackfeet heritage, but some of these first names are great football names--" Krush, King, Nitro, Badger !!!" Others make me wonder what the parents had against their own son--" Pig, Godspower, Gentle ?" ( Maybe 
Pig's mom was upset at giving birth to him because he weighed 17 pounds at birth and was ready to suit up for the O line @ 3 ? And Dude has probably spent his life walking around confused, " Hey Dude." " You talkin" to me ? "
Some of these names remind me of the old Johnny Cash song " A Boy Named Sue," where the father names his son " Sue," knowing that he would have to either get tough or die !!!
" Buy you ought to thank me before I die, for the gravel in ya' gut and spit in ya' eye Cuz I'm the son-of-a- bitch that named you Sue ! "
" What could I do ? "

If his parents had named him " Dutch," slam dunk, Top 5, potential

I think " Microwave"" or " Toaster" would have also put Clay in The Top 10 : ) !!!If his parents had named him " Dutch," slam dunk, Top 5, potential
Outside of Boston and New Hampshire.
It is kind of a perfect placement. Just low enough that Bobby can use it for bulliten board material, just high enough that we can move up quickly if we start strong.

I think he made the list last year. They probably try to avoid doubling up names since it’s something they do just got fun anyway.

The big sky was tougher that year than MV. Let’s bet on whether MV has 4 in top 6 this season.
