Preseason All-Big Sky and All-American KVA

[Ken Jones]

I bet who ever we play knows all about him and it still he wrecks havoc.

KVA getting some more love from Craig Haley, STATS FCS Senior Editor, http://sports.yahoo.com/news/big-sky-looks-fight-back-national-limelight-depth-180729001--ncaaf.html. John Pudner, thinks that KVA is the No. 8 among the best returning collegiate athletes in Montana, http://www.breitbart.com/sports/2015/08/14/montana-top-student-athlete-left-due-to-firing-of-obama-brother-in-law/.

It never amazes me ... an e-mail to the right person can generate momentum. :thumb:

KVA is the only 2015 Preseason All-Big Sky 1st Team Defense Member. He's a 2015 STATS FCS Preseason All-American; yet, he's not being featured in University of Montana Football. I don't get it. Most programs would have KVA everywhere on their media releases. :thumb:

Two things, the first being this was just bestowed, correct? So give them some time to add this to the appropriate media. Secondly, Stitt just took the names off the jerseys, so I would suspect they're still trying to make it about the team. While it's a wonderful accolade, nobody has played a snap in a real 2015 BSC game as yet. And while I'd love to see KVA and any of his teammates worthy, receive all due recognition, that would be most appropriate after they have played the games.

On the bright side, you've brought it to the attention of all of us who following this f^&king "free-for-all" internet message board. Thats a couple two-tree hundred folks on a good day. We're all that really matters now, aren't we? Never mind...

You get preseason awards based on your previous performances and the potential to exceed last season's performances. The promotion of specific athletes has happen for decades, that's how it's done.

Wow, Stitt took the names off jerseys ... that's ol' skool ... lol. I hope his ol' skool tactics work in the modern age of athletics or he won't be at Montana for long.

Really? Have never seen a previous performance award. What does one look like? Is it something like a promise ring? Teams still win games in this new-fangled era of athletics. Am thinking that's been around longer than preseason awards. Stitt will be around for as long as he wants, preseason awards notwithstanding...

You're funny and I do agree with one of your statements, "Stitt will be around for as long as he wants, preseason awards notwithstanding ..." :thumb:
