Assuming it is real, what exactly could “game changing” include?
New uniforms would change the game look.

I predict a three page thread now on the pros and cons of names on the back of the jerseys.

Bobcat athletics is a business to the coaches, school leadership, and players. It's time the fans treat Bobcat athletics as a business too.

You can't play for the name on the back of the jersey if there are no names on the back of the jerseys.

You haven’t memorized the numbers 0-99 yet? I had those down pretty early in life. \:D/

New uniforms would change the game look.
Most modern day uniforms are meant to be replaced every 4-5 years. Our current uniforms were new for the 2021 season, so this will be year 5 with them. Under Armor came out with a new jersey design last year, I wouldn't be surprised if we spring for the upgrade this offseason. Doesn't mean we have to change the design, but upgraded materials/fit would be nice.


First and goal, clock winding down. That's Humphrey! It's TOUCHDOWN MONTANA STATE!

After seeing most skill players in shorts this year, I am concerned with the direction "pants" have been going. Are they going to be playing in speedos before long?

Beer being sold in the stadium. Keep the prices reasonable and fans might stay in the stadium for halftime and be in their seats for the start of the 3rd quarter.

If the game-changing gift involves free beer for fans in the stadium we might finally have a solution to the supposed problem of too many empty seats right after halftime! Assuming the lines to get said free beer wouldn't be too long, of course...

It's certainly a game-changing gift but I doubt it's THE gift that's being rumored/discussed here.

Maybe the article just forgot to mention the live bobcat they are donating that will sit on the sidelines during home games.

Any live bobcat on the sidelines has to be trained to run out on the field and recover the tee after the kickoff and return it.

Why do you think the gift was so large? This kind of innovative thinking ain't cheap.
"I hope the scholarships will create opportunities for students and their advisers to share insights they divine with the larger community. This is part of the spirit of living in a great university town,” Crawford said.

Obviously not, but it’s a very cool and generous gift.
