Kris Brown Big Sky POW

Don't disagree with you AZ. I think he did OK in his first start and you could see the nerves, which is natural. Not sure how he gets the award either. If he improves every week after this POW, then a few weeks from now he will be an All-American! Lets hope!

Have to mildly disagree about the nerves. We were talking how he was a little too casual on a few early swing and touch passes. No sign of the deer in the headlights look often seen in a young QB. Lots of iffy decisions as one would expect from his first start, seemed to us he looked plenty comfortable and seems to have the physical tools to excel. But yeah if he gets better every week we should be fine by playoff time.

That is fair. I also think his arm strength is up there with anyone and as he gets used to being the guy every week his performance, hopefully, reflects that.
 
Interesting Stat...

In his 3 years playing Varsity Football for Bozeman High, he played with 11 D-1 Athletes. 10 of them playing for Cats or Griz in Football, 1 playing for Cats in Basketball... He has had a ton of talent around him, and knows how to win.
 
I went back and watched the game just to see how many bad throws Kris had. He was 20-30, so 10 incompletes. I blame 5 on Kris. 4 overthrows and 1 INT into triple coverage. The other 5 were good defense and 1 was Flowers jumped too early to catch it in the end zone. So, out of 30 passes, 25 were nice throws. He does throw a nice ball.

You’re god damned right about that. He’s big, can move, sees it, gets it, nice touch. He’s got more tools than we’ve had in a long time. Stuff you can’t coach. Just young.

Everything egriz was trippin’ on last week can be fixed. All of last week’s mistakes are coachable. I’m not talking about just fumbles. He needs to learn when to throw heat. When to zip it in there. Sometimes I think it’s harder to teach a kid to take speed off rather than speed it up. He will get there. Kid has a super hero origin story and will be known as Cap’n Cat Slayer someday.

I will pick up and carry the Growler torch regarding this kid (not because I believe crap from that old man, but because I believe this kid is something special). So, everyone direct your ire toward me because I’m feeling feeling irie.
 
Brown is a stud. Big, athletic, and throws a beautiful ball ‼️💯

Brown will put up some big numbers over his career, if UM receivers get better seperation and quit being covered up in man coverage by every team.

Some us see why Hauck was pumped to sign Brown. Others are ignorant.

How do we know that? Other than the Hail Mary against EWU he hasn’t thrown a ball further than 8 yards downfield that wasn’t intercepted….
