Did Bobby recruit Mellott?

[CDAGRIZ]

I heard Bobby didn’t recruit Melott at all and specifically said he wasn’t good enough to play for the Griz after jumping out from behind their couch. Then, I heard he went and took a big dump in their yard before taking the grandma out to a nice seafood dinner and never calling her again.

 

[argh!]

Well his record of losing the chipper has got to be up there.

Leave it to you for another outstanding contribution. Your special Christmas Greeting for Griz fans.

kem, it would have been worth another year of stitt to have gotten rid of you and your fake "support". merry christmas.

Recruiting failures at QB. I can’t wait for you to argue with me about this. You start, and I’ll finish with Andrew Selle, Dalton Sneed, and Cam Humphrey. Can’t wait for you to talk shit about those guys.

Nobody is going to shit talk those guys. But alongside our rival to the west how do they compare to Eric Meyer, Matt Nichols, Bo Levi Mitchell, Vernon Adams and Eric Barrier? Why can bobby not out recruit them? Or does eastern develope them better?

I think much of it is as simple as what EWU does on offense versus what UM does. EWU is a QB's dream for putting up big numbers, UM...not so much

Maybe, but I think those guys would have put up big numbers at Montana as well. There were years that EWU had a really good balance with the running game.

I do not know the answer to this. Do the QB's mentioned meet the academic standards at
the University of Montana?

Not all of them would.

Trying to strike a funny balance between the BH haters and the BH lovers with a couple inside and outside jokes. Not all jokes hit. Only 14% of my jokes hit, but I judge their success on the milk-fat scale, and 14% is astronomical on that scale. (Credit: Nick Thune)

This is POTY worthy and includes egriz callbacks from at least a dozen years ago. Well done as always, Mr CDA

I also don’t understand why we don’t have the best QB’s in the country at the FCS level every single year. Inexcusable. We need to start recruiting inner city LA. Our fan base would love this. (I am in full agreement of recruiting inner city LA, just so we’re clear)

Here is the deal with Mellott. Both schools recruited him as an athlete, because to be honest, neither saw him as a QB. MSU was willing to let him have a shot though, and it paid off. I don't see this in any way as missing out on a sure fire QB. But I will agree that UM recruiting for the QB position hasn't been great, but with how college football in changing, not finding QBs from the high school ranks will be less than necessary, but you will have to hit in the portal.

The problem with the style of play that Mellot is doing we all know he won’t last. A running QB is just one play from being done for the year. Bad enough in the pocket but running just does not work for the long haul unless your dang lucky.

Or for a career.

And that's with rules, or rule interpretations, that protect the QB almost to the point where the defender can hardly touch him. Got to be unbelievably frustrating for the pass rusher. (Don't get me started.)

Agree. Running the ball too much, out of necessity. Doubt we would have beaten SDSU without TM getting as many carries as he did. Ifanse and Sumner going down caused it. Hopefully one or both of them play in Frisco because I agree - TM carrying the ball 35 times is way too many.

....I thought when Mellot throw the ball it was accurate...didn't have a high velocity but the balls were catchable...
wouldn't be surprised if he comes out throwing...3 weeks to get him ready!

Who cares if Coach Hauck recruited Mullet or not? Its over and in the past.

Well obviously you don’t so its pretty simple don’t involve yourself in the thread with posters who do. It’s pretty obvious why we care. Brown was Gatorade player of the year for Bozeman and he wasn’t ready after three years in the program to fill in when cam went down.

Rostad was the Gatorade player of year as qb for class A Hamilton and then after 2 year gets moved to Lb and didn’t play much for the Griz other then special teams. Mellot is a freshman who is now starting qb in the chipper. You don’t see a disconnect? How does this keep happening? That was a rhetorical question and since you don’t care don’t bother responding. :thumb:

In no way, shape or form, was (SR) Kris Brown named Montana Gatorade Player of the Year; (JR) Rostad was, even though Brown had just as good numbers and all while at the same time going against tougher competition.

(SR) Rostad was defeated his senior year by Butte's (SR) Tommy Mellott for the Gatorade Player of the Year.

Mellot's numbers easily surpass both Brown and Rostad.

Mellot's numbers are superior to GRIZ COMMIT HUOT as well.

Choke on those facts.

Wait, here's another shocker for the morons on here, Mellott's number make Dave Dickenson's numbers look paltry.

Financial engineering is the use of mathematical techniques to solve financial problems. Financial engineers test and issue new investment tools and methods of analysis. They work with insurance companies, asset management firms, hedge funds, and banks.

This field is fiercely competitive and you need to up your game to even have an opportunity to interview. There are a lot of different areas within math, but there is one thing for certain: if you're going to be a derivatives quant, you had best be good at stochastic calculus.

Salary $96,500 to $166,000

This blew my mind, so I had to check.

Dickenson: In his college career (including playoff games), he completed 1,015 of 1,477 passes (68.7%) for 13,486 yards with 116 touchdowns and only 26 interceptions, and was responsible for 137 total touchdowns (116 passing and 21 rushing).

Melott: in his college career (including playoff games) he completed 26 of 50 passes (52%), 461 yards, 4 touchdowns, and 0 interceptions, and was responsible for 14 touchdowns (4 passing and 10 rushing).

It’s basically a coin flip.

Spank my point is someone on the staff is doing a piss poor job of scouting and recruiting qbs. Am I wrong?

There isn’t a guarantee attached when they are recruited that they will make it at a given position. The Helena recruit looks good that he may be a future Griz QB, but if he doesn’t pan out, is that Bobby’s fault? Let’s hope they can attract a good drop down in the near future.

So I've actually been told by a Helena griz fan that he doesn't see the Helena kid as a qb at this level.

I think sometimes you get the #1 qb in the state so you can "win" the recruiting battle knowing they will not ever be a qb for you. Whether they change positions or schools. So did someone miss on recruiting or did they just take the kid hoping they were a good enough athlete to play a different position. Ala Rostad.

 

[Allezchat]

Didn't Colter say on his show that Tommy grew up wanting to play for the Cats?

I'm curious about those Dickenson/ Mellott high school numbers. As a great falls kid, I grew up watching Dave play some in high school. State championships Jr and Sr years. Did he start 3 years? How many years did Tommy start? I think 3 of not 4?
