Food for all the Move-Up people

When I see the success JMU is having it makes me feel a bit sad honestly. All of our former rivals in the division have gone and moved up and eclipsed our program. Then the D2 upstart replacements for our former rivals have caught up to us in this division. Just kinda sad.

JMU, App St., GaSo, Liberty, Marshall, Nevada, Boise, Coastal Carolina, ODU. All having success (OK, maybe not Nevada).

One has to look at the influential people and where they attended college in our schools. If you can't discern their condescending elitist thought process as to why our schools are not capable of moving up, then take a time out.

MSU for many years had a group of professors and coaches who openly stated their disdain for not being able to get a better school. Unfortunately, I've had the misfortune of listening to a few professors at UM who had the same attitude and waved their Harvard masters or Washington degrees in the kids face.

Only Boise, JMU and App St. ahead of the Griz in the Sagarin. The rest behind UM. Old Dominion is 2-3, and 122 in the Sagarin. Looks like UM left them behind.
 
It makes no sense for us to still be FCS in my opinion, do whatever we can to get to the MWC with MSU. Hopefully the PAC raids the MWC and we get a call.

It's not 1899?

It's better than 1899. The Portal allows easier recruiting and cherry-picking. Won't everyone want to play for UM? If UM moves up, unlimited money will roll into the program and into NIL coops. The Griz will be popular nationally and tens of millions of fans will watch the Griz on real tv, not ESPN+.

OK you had enough, put it down or pass it around.

Too many Griz fans have Montana-Itus which is acute negative thinking.

Nevada has had some decent football success, but they've had outstanding basketball success, which there is no way in HELL they would have had if they were still in the bsc. UM BB has that potential as well, but not in this freakin conference.

Too many Griz fans chase windmills.
