Guesses on if Isiahia Banks loses his redshirt this week

If he is, let's hope he's ready to go and make a big positive impact for the team. Trying to stay positive with all this crud, but it would suck for him to lose his RS and not play well. On the other hand, there's no time like now to learn how to play.

I agree, that's why I was thinking only if he is better than what we have going forward. If not, certainly wouldn't want it to be wasted.
It would not be "wasted." 5 years to play four; it would still be available later. Comes in handy sometimes; e.g., JJ, Lex.

And, if they activate him and he doesn't play, it has no effect on his being a 2017 redshirt.

Freshman safety Michael McGinnis was told a couple weeks ago to be ready because he might be called up this season. I sure hope we don't have to burn any redshirts.
If Strong is out this week, Epperly will start. If they have to burn a redshirt, they’ll burn Banks’. Banks is better than McGinnis IMO.

If they activate a current redshirt, they should hold him in reserve until absolutely needed. Don't use him on special teams etc. See if the guys already on the roster can hold the line and how many points the offense can put up. Use the redshirt only if injuries require. Just my opinion.

I would hope the Washington Situation wouldn't burn anyones redshirt, and I have a hunch that nothing will happen this week as the folks in Pullman try to sort things out. Next week may be a different story.

What I am really hoping for is that Haslam is looking at this from a different angle and has given Stitt some clue as to where the program (Stitts and Staff Future) is going to be. The actions in Pullman have far more implications than just the next few games and the playoffs.

No matter HOW pure Stitts decision making may be, part of it as looks at thing's now is does he he continue his plans for the future of the program knowing there will be a future or does he go all in NOW to try and cement his immediate future now and try and compensate for the loss of these redshirts later.....

No kidding. Put the best players on the field regardless of recruiting class. It just doesn't seem that hard to me.

Also - I am quite certain Stitt knows his situation regarding the future. If he chooses NOT to put the best players on the field right now in order to produce a "better product" in the future....he might not be there to see it.
 
It would seem to be easy, but are they that much better to make That big of a difference now and loose them in the future? You're right "If he chooses NOT to put the best players on the field right now in order to produce a "better product" in the future....he might not be there to see it." should he be forced into that decision "Whats better for him" or "whats better for the program" because of an off field decision by a player 200 miles away? I'm just saying I HOPE haslam takes that pressure off him for everyone's good

Personally, I think winning this year is better for the program, without regard to redshirt considerations. I don't see how Haslam could make any decisions until he sees how the rest of the season is going to go. Remember that Haslam has a lot of "constituents" who weigh in and will weigh in. He may make the final decision, but it is not all his decision to make, in my view.

Any pressure on Stitt is owned by Stitt. His team - his locker room - his schemes - his assistant coaches...

Stitt can take the pressure off of himself by leading his team to wins. Putting the best players on the field is a big part of that equation.

We probably will disagree - but I personally have very little patience for those who will begin to make excuses about losing the starting safety....and QB. These things should NOT influence how the Admin looks at Stitt following this season.

What I will agree with is that if it comes down to a safety we are in deep doo. IF it as a few suggest 3 other players plus the cheerleaders and the band, that's different....... (and if we lose to the cats even if we have to pull from Sentinel..........

Yes, thankfully. But, schedule gets tougher now and I am not convinced the defense can progress much more. For the record...I am cheering like crazy for this team and coach Stitt.

They are better than the nothing they would replace, since they would used because there isn't another option.

I guess Bubba is f***[*] in North Dakota then... :roll:

Do you know his status? Is ND your benchmark? Perhaps Idaho.... :roll:

My guess is Schweigert gets some grace given his third season went as follows:

ND finished last season 9–3, 8–0 in Big Sky play and a (shared conference championship), and made the playoff field - losing in round 2.

Hopefully, Stitt can do something similar in his third year...

Well, if injuries shouldn't influence how admin feels about the coach, Bubba is fucked. So is CP's coach.

Ok - if you say so. They are grown ass men earning solid money. They know winning matters in D1 football. They recruited back-ups...

Think Jimbo Fisher isn't feeling some heat?...poor guy lost his QB opening weekend.

Like I said above ND coach probably gets some grace. Stitt's rope is not the same IMO. Not sure about CP.

I don't think those programs should serve as benchmarks for Montana anyway.
 
No worries with



"Family" only a line of crap HERE, NOW!:( :( Stitt will throw away the depth chart and find someone, anyone to fill in. Delaney and Epperly will find out,real fast what family means to Stitt and Haslam!!! This whole things stinks from an administrative s
ide! THEIR ACTIONS ARE SHAMEFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
"Innocent until proven guilty"."Someone busts you in the mouth=GAME ON! You kick his ass!!! "NUFF SAID"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! To many pussies dressed in pink here @Montana! No wonder the AURA is gone! Under this administration the Grizzlies will never be back! We are no longer Montana we are just another mediocre BSC football team. This team is done! And not because of a couple of players sticking up for themselves! Because of a head coach and AD who turned their backs on them at crunch time! :( :(
