I provided my Bobcat scouting report to the Yale coaches. I provided Brint's Cat scouting report on the Cats to several of my Yale friends, as well as my scouting report. Several of my friends have skied with me at Big Sky and come to MT at other times. One of them sent me the following: "Like all cats, the bobcats have cockiness as part of their nature and one of Yale’s best hopes is to be underestimated. Still, MSU has a deep team and is battle tested against other outfits from schools where football is a religion and not a recruiting arm for Goldman Sachs.
Yale should thank you for your help!
Cheers"
This friend went to law school at Yale with Bill and Hillary Clinton. One of his professors was James Moore, who grew up in MT. Moore was the leading bankruptcy law scholar of his generation. He died in 1994.
"He was born on a farm in Condon, Ore., and attended a one-room school in rural Montana. In 1922, at age 18, he graduated from Montana State College in Bozeman with high honors, and in 1934 he graduated cum laude from the University of Chicago Law School.
After earning a doctorate at Yale Law School, he taught at Chicago for two years.
Professor Moore was the Sterling Professor Emeritus of Law at Yale University, where he taught for 37 years. He was also the author of the 34-volume "Moore's Federal Practice" (2d ed., 1948) and the three-volume "Moore's Manual: Federal Practice & Procedure" (1962)."
