Griz/Kitten Game day thread

Wasn’t going to click on this POS, bump, but glad I did. Alaska delivers.

 

[poorgriz]

Go enjoy your summer, bud. More to life than being an internet troll.

You underestimate how fun it is to troll you guys. Especially after such an exquisite ass beating.

True story! Cats own the Griz in almost every way imaginable right now and I see this continuing as is, or likely getting even more lopsided for a long, long time. Thank God the years of griz owning the Cats are over because yes, that was not fun. Time for griz nation to feel that and accept that it’s going to last for a long time. You had your fun.

This is the most unrealistic and optimistic post I have read in a Loooooonnnnngggg time. Step back from the pipe, sober up and think about what you posted. People are not happy with your new basketball coach and the AD is hearing about it big time. Overrated. Your football program had two cake walk years and they got smoked when they finally had tough games. Griz have struggled, but that does not last forever. You just keep dreaming little buddy. When you get slapped back to reality we will make sure and remind you of your imbecile post and grandiose delusions.

I don’t think you understand just how far ahead of um, MSU is right now… in almost every way imaginable. Oh well, next year will be another glaring example for ya!

You don't seem to understand that UM beat MSU in football 29-0 in 2021. MSU is going to have a hard time fielding a men's basketball team next fall. Your D-II coach is not going to do well at MSU. Your women's basketball team is having problems, has lost a lot of players, and the head coach is having problems with assistants. Big supporters are starting to question her. I was in Bozeman last week, listing to some discussing her issues. UM is currently way ahead of MSU in men's basketball right now. UM may be ahead of MSU in women's basketball now. UM has a smarter and better president than MSU too, in my view. She's 63. Bodnar is early 40s. MSU has had a good run under Cruzado, but I'd much rather have Bodnar as president. He's done a lot more things.

PR, I too think things are looking up for the Griz, but until it’s proven on the field/court, I just can’t crow about “what ifs”. Scats won the most recent Griz/Cat game, won the conference, went further in the playoffs, won the BSC basketball title, went to the NCAA tourney, won the womens BSC basketball title, went to the tourney, etc, etc.

Bodnar has UM headed in the right direction but MSU was headed north while UM was headed south for several years.

Regarding MSU men's hoops, I'm following that one fairly closely. The Cats are screwed. I am also good friends with several big Bobcat boosters and have had some previous background from a former MSU asst coach. And, a friend of mine is being recruited by the Cats. Yes, the Cats have done very well the last 2 years in the playoffs. But, I'm confident the Griz will beat the Cats next fall, unless the UM qb situation doesn't turn out well.

I think Cats' hoops has 8 players on the team now, including a recent D-II guy from Point Loma. 8 includes another transfer. 6 openings remaining. Various offers outstanding, none of which I thought looked like great players.

Do you even follow your own program? Between your women's and men's basketball programs you just lost like 80 percent of your talent in the last month. All left on their own with eligibility remaining, along with with 5 of your coaches. Your women's program didn't do shit in the big sky tournament and two of your players transfered in-conference to NAU, lol. Our women return basically everyone, have arguably the two best freshmen in the conference and the two highest rated recruiting classes two years running. Your men's team is in complete rebuild mode after just two good seasons.

To come on here and beat your chest about the major sports going into next year is a complete joke. Your football team will likely be the only major sport the cats are near the top of the conference next year. Your football team hasn't won a championship in 41 fucking years. Give it a rest already. You're ridiculous.

Good post. I was told by some big Cat boosters that Bad Bear is talking to NAU too. And good point on Lady Griz. It looks/feels like they are likely to finally get it going next season. Maybe Cruzado has now decided to finish her career at MSU, but previously she was looking around.

Just goes to show how fast things can change with the transfer portal and when you lose a good coach. Cats mens and womens BB will be in for a long season next year. No surprises on the men's side. Battle probably got some good NIL money and the others followed Danny and Haslam. Not much left for the new bobcat coach. I think the women will reload pretty fast but next season will be tough. Yes, the Griz women should be good next year.

MSU appears to have moved ahead in the NCAA football records too. The only school to ever have both the DC and OC have DUI arrests in a 6-month period. A record that may never be beaten. I suppose MSU can also get a record for the category of having 2 Coordinators on staff at the same time with no punishment from the school.

 

[SoldierGriz]

Griz ROTC = more General Officers in our armed forces, despite msu having both Army and Air Force ROTC.

Fact. Griz Battalion dominates the 406.

Wow, that’s rich coming from you PR. :lol: You know damn well if this had been a griz coach, you’d be beating the “let’s see what the lawyers say” drum right now, hard. That’s what you always do. But yes I get how your stance changes drastically when it’s Cats in the news versus griz.

Not true. I have never defended a Griz coach for a dui. When I post on Griz dui-type matters, I have inside info. From the person, coaches or lawyers.

Note that I didn’t call for any action, even suspension, for the DC or the OC. My comments are mild. I am mocking MSU and you.

If I wanted to, I could go directly to my friends on the BOR or the Gov.

You need to learn how to read and recall.

$150,000 is the number floating around.
