Man Child Players

I just listened to the Fight on Montana podcast.

During this podcast it was mentioned that Gillman @ RB was a "Man Child" player.

Are there other Griz players that fall into this category such as Walker on offensive line or Simpson in red zone offense? IDK.

I have no idea about others, but Gillman may be a once in a decade player. They better get him a lot of touches this year and plenty of time on the field. Running back is stacked for the Griz. Hopefully they keep players fresh and pound the rock. He is one that scares with from a portal perspective.

No strong opinion but off the top of my head; Walker is 25 years old, so man, not man child. Ryan Simpson; is a fifth year junior, so I'm thinking he's got to be 21 at least. Man-Child is like Marcus Dupree (the only kid Switzer ever coached that he said could have gone straight to the NFL from HS). Gillman might be one, hope he is. GO GRIZ.
 
Kash is a young dude and from everything I’ve heard built like a brick shit house. He could be one to watch come up this year.
 
I always thought man child meant a man (adult) that acted like a juvenile...kind of like that qb for NAU a few years ago. Most of the Griz seem pretty mature.

I predicted in another thread, sometime earlier this year, Gillman will lead the Big Sky in rushing this year!

Yep, you are the Inigo Montoya in this situation.

To me it means one who dominates his position on the FB field regardless of the team he is playing for. For the team who has this person it can help bring a championship. It may or not be an "All American" type player.

Would “beast” be a clearer term than “man-child?”

Suggest the next degree higher. Meaner, hungry, aggressive, plays well is space. Old DOLA style. No specific position.

Well a 5th year junior would be 23.
 
Man child probably isn't the right description, but watched walker at the press conference. At 6'6" and 300 lb, I'd rather get hit by my f350.
