Classic Egriz. Everybody wanted Nyguen benched for Calhoun. Now, Calhoun returning as a junior and the clear starter isn't good enough either.

:lol: :lol: I think we need to focus on the offensive line, If I had my choice of any position to be dominant, I would start there. Lots of running backs of all shapes and sizes have looked very good behind a dominant offensive line, along with quarterbacks.

Everybody who has had 1 concussion has a concussion history. It doesn't ever go away. It only takes one. Calhoun has had two. He's not unlike 100's of other football players.
The Griz feel they have good depth at RB with Favors and McCombs and Green coming off RS. They aren't recruiting a JC RB, so any true freshman they sign is going to RS, and therefore wouldn't provide depth this coming season anyway. Now, if a top-notch dropdown wants to come to Missoula, I'm sure Stitt and Co. will be happy to take him. But that being said, any RB out of high school in this year's class will have no baring on the Griz' running game next season unless not one, but two guys go down.

More about the O-line...
5'10", 228 lb Saunders ran over CSU all night. When they needed a yard, he would get 6. He's a soph, so we will likely see him in 2018. Idaho will be a load for the BSC in spite of continual bashing by this forum. They sent a strong FU message to the MWC last night.
I would guess, however, that Petrino will not be so interested in a BSC HC's salary and could be gone by 2018.

No doubt they will be competitive but they may lack some depth starting out with the scholarship juggling act. I don't think they'll just come out and blow the doors off anyone in BSC like their fans seem to think. Group of 5 teams do not have a huge gap in talent from upper tier FCS difference is just depth and resources.

Having checked back on some of the CSM rosters over the last 15 years, coach Stitt has had several RBs from 210 to 230 #s.

Idaho will not be dropping down to FCS. Essentially their threat/announcement to join the BSC in 2018 is to leverage their position with alumni and fans to find a way to remain FBS. None of the players, none of the coaches, none of the fan base, and no donors support dropping down and being humiliated. Someone on here noted the expense of remaining FBS... And that's obviously a fact, but as a FCS program, they will make essentially no revenue (they can't put 25,000 butts in seats at home) and the lucrative $42.50 they get per game from BSC television deals won't quite cut it.
Yep. It's clear what he, Justin, and Chad want out of a RB. Size and speed.daGrizJ said:kemajic said:You have to wonder where Stitt would have Lex playing....fanofzoo said:Can't happen, there is a height and weight restriction.
