The rumors have begun on Bleskin transfer

Post by ibleedblue » Thu Aug 21, 2014 12:14 pm

Colter, gonna need your help on this one.

I got a call from a buddy with strong ties to Carrol College. He said word on the street is Bleskin is going that way. He admitted it is just the talk of a few right now. So at this point I'm guessing its pure speculation, but it wouldn't be the first time these things tuen into reality.

Do you have any info on this. On one hand, I want him to go and succeed there. On the other, I want him to be our number 2 as he's one injury away from a lot of playing time.

Literally just saw this on egriz. Heard from a friend from a friend, etc...
I wouldn't be surprised if he transferred in the end, but I'll wait to see it.


Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

Okay good. If it's going around there then it's probably NOT the truth. My worry is my friend played football for Carrol and has a good pulse on the program. I'll chalk it up to rumor til Colter tells us different

Would hate to see him do that, but we will still be in good shape with Quinn McQueary. That kid is a player.

Then he'd be in competition with three or four other QB's at Carroll. Not that he couldn't win, but that would throw them into the same predicament. Don't know if Van Diest wants that....and they have limited scholarships that are most likely used up already! They have over a hundred players out for the team.

If indeed its true, and he does go, its his choice to transfer. He has the ability and shown he can make a great QB, like other have said he is one injury away from starting, hopefully Purkop doesn't get hurt....but hopefully Jake stays and makes a go at. Or if he leave, more power to him, too much talent for him not to play.

I was thinking it was going to start out like couple years ago, when Iddins and (forget the other QB) switched halfs for the 1st couple games. This way it puts them in real game situations, real time.

Kempt and Iddins did that one year, I would like to forget that year just like last year.


If your left, you aren’t right.

Checked with three sources inside the Carroll program, including THE person who would know and who handles transfers. This was news to all of them, so I'd say it's a rumor.

Come on guys. Let's be real. Jake isn't going anywhere. He's likely an academic senior embedded in his major, likely has a full NCAA football scholarship, has developed friends and relationship at MSU and is a Bobcat to the bone, just like his brother. He's not going to pout off to Carroll or anyone else because he's currently the #2 quarterback. Among the things I admire about Cody Kempt...when he was beaten out he stayed totally engaged. The few times McGee got dinged and had to come out, Cody was immediately in the huddle with his plastic hat on taking charge. Jake is that kind of guy.

I won't go into specifics, but if you saw Jake's significant other, you'd realize he'd be TOTALLY INSANE to leave Bozeman.

Remember, the best recruiting tool to get them to come and the best to get them to stay is always pretty girls.

If he goes, I would gladly take Quinn as a backup. He looked really good at practice the other day.

Would really suck if it was QM. Man I hate all the speculation and I just did it.


Great time to be a BOBCAT!
