Gillman wins Jerry Rice award

[3-7-77]

There’s six RB’s on the ‘scats who would start over Eli.








I keed, I keed….he’s a beast. LOVE watching him run.

Sarcasm is best done VERBALLY...

Congratulations Eli! Let's keep the momentum going!

 

[3-7-77]

Eli Gillman will make FCS history, and will be a well known name by the NFL. :thumb:

 

[Brother Bear]

Selfishly I want to watch him play more in person and sure as heck enjoy seeing it when he in maroon and silver! Up With Montana!

 

[Griz Gone Wild]

What an amazing accomplishment. He's in with some very elite company and hopefully he continues to build on his incredible freshman year in the years to come (at Montana..#StayAGriz) Congrats!!!!!!

 

[grizingatorland]

Gonna take some serious nil money to keep him around.

 

[Ursus1]

Sign his brother!! Undersized but surely can find a place and time to utilize his quickness, moves and speed. Two brothers playing together is something money can't buy

Congrats to a very deserving young man who runs very hard all the time. Couldn’t count all the tackles you broke this year, Big number though!

I'm not sure how to interpret the results exactly but it looks like he ran away with it. Nice job, Eli

Good observation! Not sarcasm…I read an article that said…”the runaway winner”…so you nailed it!

First place votes are worth 5 points, down to 1 point for a fifth place vote.

A nice ceremony for a great player & person. Too bad his RB coach (Justin Green) wasn't allowed to attend
