Questions for tonight’s GFP

Or the correct answer is that their safeties were at 10 and 12 yards and their corners were at 7 and moving backwards on the snap of the ball.
This. The corners didn't play press once I don't believe. 7 yard outs were there all day; deep balls we're not
 
I thought it was more annoying/troubling that they seemed to play more conservatively with their LBs and safeties, apparently giving way more credit to a pass game that seemed only slightly better than years past, and less credit to a run game that is still pretty gawdamn good. Lamson isnt Tommy, but hes still runs hard as shit and seemingly comfortable operating their read option run game.

Question for the pod, will the griz coaching staff adjust their in state recruiting mindset and approach, and when will we focus strongly on getting a gubner-like d tackle every year? I thought the Montana kids made the difference. I do give the staff a bit of leniency on crews and jones. I think had the whole situation not went down the way it did, we obviously have crews, and probably jones too. We had the inside track with him before the crews scenario went down the way it did. But other than that, we need to get more of the top Montana kids. Dowler twins, Cole Taylor (his uncle and grand parents have season tickets directly behind the griz bench, uncle played for the griz), several of the o line and dline are Montana kids. Etc.

Bottom line is, no excuses. Our university as a whole, and the football team too, need to be better at recruiting our back yard, and our state as a whole. It can't be talked about enough. It's time to fucking figure it out, or we'll continue to get worked in enrollment, and may find ourselves on the shitty end of a more and more lopsided recent rivalry record.
Agreed, I have voiced this concern multiple times earlier in the year. Griz are losing the best MT kids right now to MSU and until those who are in the positions that can actually change this will accept this reality head on, that trend will not change.
 
James, O/U on the number of pumpkin pie pieces you eat this weekend. Setting the line at 7.5.

The officiating was horrible. Not just the calls, but the constant stop of play and appearance at times of absolute total confusion by the refs, leading to zero flow in the game. Should the bsc simply fire them all and start over?

Our Missoula VRBO didn't have heat this weekend, as the heat exchanger in the furnace went TU. Which got me thinking: at what temperature does everyone set their thermostat?

Best IPA from a Montana brewery (Brint, you can sit this one out)?
 
Question 1: On a scale of 1-10, what is your frustration level with the center situation? You would think after the 15th high snap it would be clear. At this point it seems like self sabotage. This is college football, it’s okay if not everyone on the team plays an equal amount.

Question 2: What are we doing out of the Wildcat? Does anyone believe Wortham will actually hand the ball off? i found myself thinking it was just a wasted play yesterday when they called it, because the Cats knew exactly what was coming.
 
Thanks for all the great info on the podcast. Loved the inclusion of Ty Hobbs, who always provides excellent insight.
While I never blame the officials, do you agree with the holding call? With all the plays that are obvious holds that are not called, why would that be the call? It cost the Griz big time.
The Cats won the game because they made no errors. Kudos to them.
On another note, the Griz knew Lamson could run. It appears the defense adjusted at halftime. What was the adjustment?
Go Griz!
 
Not so much a question but a statement about how fun this game is for the state of Montana. I got to meet two football legends within a 30 min span of eachother.

1st was Luke. Resident pod sex symbol. Paris of the HiLine royalty.

2nd was Jay Paterno. JoePas son. He is friends with Bobby. Said he always wanted to come experience this game. And he had a blast. We talked ball for 30mins. Talked Missoula. He loves the moclub. But just overall very chill dude.
 
With the state of college football concerning the revolving door of players, does it seem that Hauck and the griz have decided to just recruit the best proven athletes they can get in the portal? Then design an offense and defense to fit them?
Would a better approach be to go after young guys, and develope them into your offensive and defensive scheme with the next man up coming from your roster? Which seems to be Coach Vigan's approach.
You mean like how Vigen recruited Lamson, Davis, King, Eckert, Long, Ezekiel, Rollins, (just off the top of the dome, I’m sure I missed a few others) straight out of high school and developed them to the players they are today?

Did you give Sample his CC back, and if not how much Griz gear did you buy at Scheels?
 
Imagine a scenario in which a GFPer happens to leave his credit card at a bar, which is then secured by a loyal listener:

What should be the first purchase using said card, and is leaving a 300% tip for the wait staff too high?
 
Two questions

-this offseason will vigen leaving be the best thing to happen for us ? That train doesn't seem to be slowing down so hopefully Oregon state and Colorado st help us out

-did Montana state seem to be very good at just simple football? People joke they are the ndsu of the west but I think that is the best compliment any program could receive
 
Listening to the pod now and Schmidt nails it with the weight room comments. The issue is that Bobby has his hand on everything despite what the strength coach would want to do.
