24....thanks for explaining everything to us

Sorry if I came off as a pedantic know-it-all. I failed in my commitment to civility. Everyone has their breaking point.

I need to find my happy place.

Keep posting!

Crittenden's knee injury must not be very serious.

Actually, it looks like everyone except Brady is back this week.

Is this the week that fan really turn on Coach Stitt, who was the last coach to lose 3 in a row? Keep your powder dry this is about to get interesting, keep Coach Haucks number on your speedial.

Christ sake, we are way too impatient. I don't care who the coach is, but as a fan base, I feel until year 3 a coach cannot be truly evaluated. Despite the record, I am confident in Coach Stitt being the right hire. He will pay dividends down the road. Besides, many fans expected the GRIZ to be 2-2 after the 1st 4 games. Beating NAU will give us that. What has changed in our expectations since before the season began? We upset NDSU, and the expectations went out of whack and through the roof! Relax, the GRIZ are and will be fine under Stitt.

Coach Stitt deserves our support. He should be given three or four years to recruit the type of talent he needs for his offense and during this time, there will be losses. That doesn't mean we won't be disappointed along the way.

Coach Stitt has my support, for whatever that means to him, I could assure it doesn't matter to him that he has my support.

And I am disappointed, he has already left two games on the field.

In college football three or four year can be a career, if coach Stitt was a surgeon, would you allow him three or four years of practice operating on you .

Now, you are assuming that better athletes than Henderson, Jones, Roberts, (Jansesen, who we haven't seen yet this year) Counts, Nguyen,Burke,Carlson,are on the horizon.

Where are they coming from, Rocky Mountain School of Mines transfers.

Athletes that coach Stitt requires for his offense are FBS athletes, In my opinion the athletes that field the Griz are some of the best in the Big Sky, and near the top of the FCS.

What is coach Stitt strategy to improve recruiting over the coaches that proceeded him, fifteen years of coaching at Rocky Mountain School of Mines, and if he needs the three or four years you suggest, I believe his recruiting prowess may slip.

I was a Bobby Hauck supporter, however, I think Bob Stitt is a good hire and has a good future at UM. He has lost a couple of games and will likely lose more. However, over the long haul, this coach who has a good national reputation will win many games and championships.

I really am hoping Coach Stitt can find the type of players that can make his system work. But I still think an offensive lineman that can consistently perform the way our line is asked to are going to need to be a special kind of player.

You are correct and I am not sure where the recruitment and development of them is on the priority list. When you have reduced schollies and require 47 WRs, there is not much left for top OLmen.

Stitt's coaching staff signed 6 OL and received a commit from another already this year. There is a 3-star who is very interested among the other OL Montana is recruiting. To claim they haven't paid any attention to OL is erroneous....also, the first thing Stitt did when he accepted the job was hire Chad Germer, a guy who has put a number of linemen into the NFL

Knowledge bomb for you whiny fools. That being said our O line sucks!

Probably the worst analogy in the history of humans being able to verbaly communicate.

Hope he wins more for the Griz than he did at Rocky Mountain School of Mines especially NC

Since when are the GRIZ consistently playing FBS/BCS quality programs when that kind of talent is needed? The GRIZ are playing FCS caliber opponents, therefore he does not have to recruit FBS caliber players. Any solid FBS caliber player we do get is icing on the cake. MSU and EWU have great offenses, and they don't get caliber of recruits you are referencing. They are great offensively because the coaches found the right talent to execute the offense they run. The talent has had enough time in each system to the point where the offense is 2nd nature to these kids. Those offenses are no longer in the infancy stages. Those offenses have matured with time and hard earned learned lessons.

Meanwhile the GRIZ offense is literally at the infancy stage of development. We saw the transition from Hauck to Pflu take some time, and it had it's growing pains in year 1. Year 2, the offense came together as that season progressed, come the end of the season that was one great offense. We seem to forget EGRIZZERS were doubting the team, coaches, and direction in year 1 under Pflu too. Yet, come the end of year 2, we were worshipping Pflu, and totally upset when he was let go.

I will take the word and belief of Haslam, and countless football coaches over EGRIZZERS any day. With patience, GRIZ NATION will be very proud and happy with Stitt as our head coach!!!

I will say "yes" to better football players than Counts, Nguyen and Janssen and probably Burke, Roberts and Carlson. Of course I see that you did not mention any of the OL.

Not sure that is a like-kind comparison....but carry on....

 

[Ursus1]

not sure he will ever have a more talented WR crew than he has right now....too bad the RB/OL positions are not letting us see what he would have done with that talent.

So you are saying that the athletes he has now are good enough for his offense, they just need more time to evaluate it before the will be able to execute it.. Do I have it right so far ?

You do know, that Haslam has an agenda, and it it might favor coach Stitt, and as far as countless coaches, why did it take fifteen years for the great opportunity at the UM.

Look like all of coach Stitts predessors, they were expected to win, and not after a three or four year work in progress, and allowing time for them to get the athletes that they thought they needed, and they did, including coach Delaney.

Now coach Stitt inherited a team that went two deep in the playoffs, with a head coach that does not have the accolades of coach Stitt, and coach Stitt is now 1-2 with a miraculous victory of NDSU.

Like I have said in many threads, I hope I'm wrong, and you and Halsam are right, although thus far coach Stitts performance has not excited me as much as you.

 

[grizindabox]

Spsyk, I believe Stitt is expected to win, but MOST people are realistic about their expectations in relation to the setting. I also laugh at the "deep onto the playoffs" line you dropped....You also seem to know why Stitt remained at Mines for as long as he did....how about sharing that with everyone on the board? I am under the impression that you would be on egriz complaining no matter whom the coach was...even if the Griz were 3-0.

 

[AZGrizFan]

If our victory over NDSU was miraculous, then the loss to Cal Poly has to be considered just as miraculous.
