“We’re going to recruit MT. You are going to see me in every school I can visit. Our staff will do the same”

I’ve heard the players love him and that he’s definitely a player’s coach

 

[Bertram]

Major focus on Montana recruits, and being in schools across the state

 

[StumptownGriz]

Extremely refreshing to have this type of energy, enthusiasm and positivity representing this program when up in front of the media. BK reminds me of Joe Glenn and Pflugrad in that regard. Players and fans are going to really gravitate towards this guys personality. Now he needs to win and he will be Montana royalty. Gonna be fun to watch and I'm hoping for the best.

 

[HookedonGriz]

He just announced Myers as the O line coach too. Finally!

Our head coach being transparent and announcing coaching additions to the media? This is unheard of!

 

[HookedonGriz]

“You guys are gonna get sick of me. Because I’m going to be out and accessible. I want to be out recruiting and out with the players”

 

[hilinegrizfan]

I like this guy

Mentioned this in another thread before I realized this one is here, but I can already tell that BK is going to be more responsive to the media and provide more information in these type of press conferences than Bobby Hauck did.

Still feels surreal that we're listening to a non-Bobby Hauck press conference today

 

[Mavman]

Come on ask about the 3-3-5 lol

It’s night and day so far in terms of openness and depth and discussion

not loving his reluctancy to say he's going to change things

 

[5280Griz]

Go Griz!

 

[BrownBear9501]

I think everything that has been lacking in terms of PR will be vastly improved with BK…..can tell already that he will appeal to in state recruits and for that I am excited on that front.

 

[Art Spooner]

I think we’re going to find out quickly if the defensive staff was as stubborn about running 3-3-5 as the base defense as BH or if it will eventually become more of a situational part of the defensive plan.

Very impressed with Kennedy so far. Curious if him saying he's leaving everything to his staff means any large scheme changes.

Hes NOT saying he's not gonna change things just saying he is not gonna change staff other than the hole left by Justin Green. He said there is a couple of things we do not my style and the players will learn that soon. I have a feeling there will be changes but he is not gonna announce that at press conference before he has a chance to let the players know that. Also remember in five days Griz players get a 15 day windown to enter portal with a coaching change. He wants to hang on to what he has. I wouldn't expect to hear any thing about changes until that window closes.

not loving his reluctancy to say he's going to change things

IDK if Bobby Hauck was in the room or not but if he was then I can understand the hesitancy to not wanna publicly say what he's changing. Especially if he's still living with him lol.

 

[HookedonGriz]

not loving his reluctancy to say he's going to change things

I didn’t hear that. He said some things are the standard and will stay the same, but some things that are kind of unique can change. Just by saying he will be out and about and accessible and recruiting and in all the schools is a pretty big change.

 

[Mavman]

not loving his reluctancy to say he's going to change things

serious question, do you expect him to stand up in front of BH and say wow things sucked I'm changing XYZ? He stated he is changing how in state recruiting will be with him in every school or almost every school in the state. He stated he will be a little less hand on with the offense and defense because he trusts his coaches, that sounds like a change.
