16-0, BIG SKY CHAMPS x2
Pretty amazing that the Bobcats just managed to pull off two consecutive undefeated Big Sky championships. Hopefully those of us who spent a lot of Saturday afternoons back in the day sitting in mostly empty stadiums praying for a 6-5 winning season appreciate what we have right now!

Awesome day to be a bobcat! I remember those days. My wife and I had our wedding on a Friday at the old Springhill Pavilion in Bozeman because we had a home game on Saturday. We bought 80 tickets for close family and friends to attend the game. You definitely couldn’t do that now! Lol

No. Doubt. This coach and staff and athletic dept have elevated this program. How many times under Kramer, ash, Choate did we come out flat or play down to the middle of the league. That never happens now. Griz still do it. Everyone does. But not the Bobcats. So so impressive.MSU01 wrote: ↑Sat Nov 22, 2025 5:05 pmPretty amazing that the Bobcats just managed to pull off two consecutive undefeated Big Sky championships.

Cats and Vigen did lose to the Griz 2 times in Missoula, that is sort of playing down to middle of the league.GoldstoneCat wrote: ↑Sat Nov 22, 2025 5:23 pmNo. Doubt.

Still doesn’t change their point. What the f is yours? It seems like you are arguing for the Gris? Or maybe NDSU? That the players should doubt themselves because of a fail a few year back.

My first Cat griz game was in 1981. I drank a pint of schnapps at kickoff and they carried me out at halftime. I can assure you, these are the good old days right now! Vigen's built a deep talented program with a pipeline of recruits. Over the hill Bobby has to rely on the transfer portal and selling Wa Griz. We have to do whatever it takes dollars wise to keep Vigen.

Ty said that during the broadcast at the end of the game, that the new president needs to find money to pay him.

The president is handicapped by the MUS. If Vigen wants more money it's up to the BQC and local businesses to come up with the cash.nanacat wrote: ↑Sat Nov 22, 2025 7:02 pmTy said that during the broadcast at the end of the game, that the new president needs to find money to pay him.

I dont think its $$$ that will keep him here.

I think he was taking a dig at the Griz, saying they are "middle of the league." I didn't read it as disparaging our crew.

Re: 16-0, BIG SKY CHAMPS x2
Man are you sensitive. It's a joke. OP said those coaches played down against mid level teams. I said Vigen did too because he lost to Griz. Meaning the Griz are mid level.nutman wrote: ↑Sat Nov 22, 2025 6:07 pmStill doesn’t change their point. What the f is yours? It seems like you are arguing for the Gris? Or maybe NDSU?

Re: 16-0, BIG SKY CHAMPS x2
You better believe I remember the 6-5 days. I don't even sweat what playoff seed we are (although I understand the importance of being a top seed), I'm just giddy that we are in the mix for the playoffs every year. For years the playoffs were a million miles away.

My point is I think its the challenge of playing at the highest level more than money that will move him.
