No Bobby, new head coach, no 3-3-5, lots of new assistants. Maybe 3 holdovers.
We stopped the run against some good teams last year, including the Cats in the first game.Good! Maybe we'll actually be able to stop the run against good teams next year!
I knowWhich assistants are leaving?
It's a good thing cause it means we have nobody to coach the 3-3-5, so we'll have to go to more of a traditional scheme. Sounds like a win to me!It’s not good if our coach staff has people leaving. Our coaching staff is very experienced and accomplished for the FCS level.
I'm ready to watch someone else lose to the cats and no NC's.No Bobby, new head coach, no 3-3-5, lots of new assistants. Maybe 3 holdovers.
News to come soon.Which assistants are leaving?
I'm not touching this one with a 10 ft. pole !!!!!!!Yup i hope it works out the way the negative unfans hope. BH is a great coach and i said he would be coaching again. You don’t get a DC at a FBS competitive school unless you ATE a great coach
Just a 10 ft fork.I'm not touching this one with a 10 ft. pole !!!!!!!
That’s just not true. The Cats ran for 240 and nearly 6 YPC in Missoula. We did fare well against South Dakota, but Phillips went down and their actions were from the pistol. Seems we really struggled vs the Power Spread under Bobby.We stopped the run against some good teams last year, including the Cats in the first game.

I will say though, I’m not sure I’d be on board with wholesale staff changes. That absolutely opens the door for guys to leave.
Ok now how about in the playoffs? What’s your excuse there?The Cats have one long run of over 50 yards on a totally goofed up defensive play. That run leaving the rest is not being "run over". The Griz ran over them.
No knowledge here, but I would guess some of the defensive assistants may follow Bobby? You want to have experienced teachers with that defense.Which assistants are leaving?
I think taking out gash runs for one team and not the other is pretty disingenuous. I also think it’s entirely fair to acknowledge the body of work for Bobby’s 3-3-5 against various FCS Power Spreads was just not desirable. It worked to a better extent when we had Gunner, but even then these teams were going for 200+. That does not mean Bobby was a bad coach. In fact, he revived this program from the dead. For that, we should all be thankful.Cats had 241, and averaged 5.7. Grizzlies averaged 6.4. Better APC by Grizzlies. Cats had 2 rushing TD's. Grizzlies had 3.
Cats had 240 in 2d game and averaged 5.5. That includes Jones' 54 yard run on a play the Grizzlies lined up wrong and then goofed up the D. Subtracting that out, Cats otherwise had 186, or 4.3 per carry, plus the long run.
5.7 to Griz 6.4, and 4.3 per carry plus a 54 yard run, does not constitute being "run over", in my view.
