RTD?

Read what I said. It occurred in 2021. Clobbered the Cats in 2021. Two nos. 6 finishes in polls for 2 years in row. Led FCS in attendance and ticket revenue. QB Club membership at all time high. Fundraising up overall and for football. Best facilities in FCS. Slid back a bit last season, due to injured qb. Just a one-year blip. O-line should
be approaching dominance.

Have achieved an average post-season polo ranking of all but 4 teams in FCS in last 3 years. Yes, the Cats are above the Griz. Will beat the Cats this season.

RTD does not occur over a 1 or 2 year period. It’s to be measured over a short period not a long period. Dominance is not just one team. It’s being up high for most years. Alabama is still a dominant FBS team.

Hoopsfan might now be the biggest idiot on the board. To compare Alabama to the gris is laughable., yes Bama is still dominate. If Bama lost 5 out of 6 to Auburn and finished 6th in the SEC no one would consider them dominate. Some how little bro gris nation think Boobie 2.0 has returned the gris to the promise land with their awesome run to sixth place in the Big Sky.

This is a serious question, so don't take it the wrong way: Are you missing any lateral incisors?

Doesn't; RTD have to start after Hauck retired, not before it. Hauck has played the Cats 4 times and is 1-1 in past two seasons. Again, UM got back in 2021.UM was not 6th in the conference that year.

I didn't compare the Griz to Alabama; I said Alabama was still dominant. Learn to read. You are illiterate.

I would rather have my team finish 6th in the conference than have my team allow 2 coordinators with dui's, and another coach with criminal charges, to continue to coach. The Cat program is truly pathetic. What's wrong with your coach?

CDA, I didn't know you were a fan of 'Death by a Thousand Cuts.' But, you are WAY over his head.

Dominant. Dominant. Your school dollars were obviously wasted. But this seems to be a common finding with those attending this supposed world-class engineering and STEM institution. Perhaps you might consider securing an AI assist before you really embarrass yourself.
 
I've noticed that most of the relatively few Cat posters currently posting on egriz are totally stupid trolls. Almost all of the good or reasonable Cat posters have disappeared. I assume that's because of (mis)handing of the coaches with dui's and other legal problems.

It's more of a machine than you think. The fact the Cats were able to run the ball like they did last year with a brand new, young, undersized OL is pretty incredible. They did lack a bit in pass protection, but that won't be an issue this year. Crazy good depth at just about every position... with only a couple question marks about quality depth in the secondary if we lose two or three starters. Will be much improved on both lines. Not sure if improved enough to topple SDSU, but will find out in the second game. They return almost everyone, much like the Cats.

SDS is going to clobber the Cats. You are delusional. You have a few good seasons, one getting clobbered by Griz, and you start thinking you are king of the world. Makes me laugh.

We'll see. I talk to important people in the program. I am hearing the 2023 team will be even better than the 2022 team in all areas, especially the passing game. Not that the Cats need to pass, because they could literally run the ball on every snap against most teams they play, and they simply cannot stop them. The griz have experienced this many times, and in fact Bobby has literally stated it. But, again, passing game will be very good as well. Defense will be very good. Again, this is from talking to people close to the program.

Are they sober at the time? Do you ask them about the culture of pervasive alcohol abuse in their program, and why nothing is done about it? I can only assume these conversations take place at a bar?

I also talk to important people in the Cat program, and know many of them. My family moved to Bozeman when I was 12, and my greater family still lives there. Some of my greater family are some of the bigger and longer Cat boosters, and scores of players have worked for their businesses over the decades. I know some AA head coaches who know the Cat program fairly well. I have known Cat coaches. I know many former Cat players and some current players. I have talked to Griz coaches about the Cats from time to time. Wish we could compare specific notes. My guess is that my contacts are much better than yours. So, put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Did you meet these people close to the program at DUI class?

Did these meetings take place in a church basement? Was everybody in a circle? Were last names used?

:lol: :lol: Well your contacts may very well be better than mine. So tell me this, what are they telling you about how good the Cats are going to be in 2023? Are any of them willing to take you up on your bet about the griz with a guaranteed W against the Cats this year? Surely your top level contacts are telling you they're scared about how good the griz are going to be, otherwise where are you getting all your confidence about the griz being better than Cats?
 
Bobby has been unsuccessful bringing Griz football back to level it was at during his first tour much less any resemblance to dominance. You just can't lose 5 of the last 6 rivalry games against the Cats and SAC and pretend the program has been dominant in any form. And only a fool would try to use the excuse of the starting quarterback being hurt last season. Every time that excuse is used it points out the deficiencies of the backup quarterback who could not win last season but who is now somehow supposed to lead the team to RTD.

They already redefined RTD and what it was supposed to mean. Most people thought it meant the griz football program dominating the conference and making it deep in the playoffs and to the championship game regularly. That's what griz football used to be about.

Today apparently RTD means beating the rival once in 6 years, and making it all the way up to 6th place.......... in the conference. New times we're living in.
 
My post is not meant to be negative. As a Cat fan I always saw Griz dominance as winning the Big Sky Conference, beating the Cats and going deep in the playoffs every year, That seemed to be the expectation of the Griz fans. And, those expectations were met during a good stretch of years. It appears that since Bobby returned, what is considered the expectation of dominance has been lowered. It is just an observation. Do you guys really feel that the level of play over the last few years meets your expectations of dominant. I think most of you on here expect better and should. I would be disappointed if you did not.Just throwing that out there. I agree with what has been mentioned on here, dominance for any team is much more difficult these days with the portal and nil.

Bobby has not been back long enough to play Cats 6 times. RTD started when he returned. By my measurement at the end of the season in 2021. the Griz had clobbered the Cats and been ranked no. 6 in the nation in 2021 and 2020. No need to keep talking about returning to dominance after that. It had already occurred. Measured in 2020 and 2021, what were the Cats dominant in?

Only a fool would not realize that losing a terrific qb to injury for several critical games, and then having him fairly injured the rest of the season, did not have a huge impact on the Griz season. It's easy to tell that you never played the game and don't understand it. No one has said that Brown will or needs to lead the Griz anywhere. You are one of the prime Cat idiot trolls I have been talking about.

I can tell that you don't know a single Cat coach. You can't possibly be getting good firsthand info.

Have any of your great Cat sources told you that a lot of people don't respect the Cat DC? Or that the OC lost a good new job, as an OC at a better program, because of his dui stuff?

At least, the Griz were dominant. The Cats never have been. Last and only championship almost 40 years ago.

The discussion hasn't been about what is dominant. It was about returning to dominance and perhaps not using the term as much. Those are different discussions. The Cats haven't been dominant in football ever in FCS, like the Griz clearly were for almost 25 years. The Griz were the winningest team in D-I football in the 2000s.

Feel free to tell us how the Cats are dominant in FCS. What happened to the Cats against the Griz in 2021? I'll tell you; the Cats got dominated. What about to the Cats against SDS last season? What kind of defense gives up 8 straight TD's to an FBS team, or whatever it was? Not even a bad defense gives up that many TD's.

The Cats had a very good running offense with 2 good running qb's. That's it. Not much more. We'll see if the Cats can build on that. The Cats barely beat bad EWU and NAU teams last season. Dummies like Poor and some other Cat trolls try to make the limited Cat success into something more than it has been.

In my view, the handling of the Cat dui's and other legal problems has undercut and diminished any success the Cats have built in their program. Truly pathetic. An embarrassment.

They eliminated that class - couldn't find any sober instructors.
