Happy to hear that our NIL offer to Caden was on par with NIL at top of the FCS. Important for the future.

Plough also mentions that a ton of p4 qb's have reached out to play here next season.

Seriously. He was awesome!

That game was amazing. Much better than any championship I can remember in recent years

Game.

Update: why do you not just force teams to go for 2 in ot

As a fan of neither team this game is so entertaining… if this was Davis I would have no hair left on my head from pulling it out

The whole rittenhouse diabetes story is even more impressive

HUGE. Wow, I have to say what I felt in our game against isu this year was the maturity with rittenhouse and spack and its shows.

yeah I don’t understand what they mean. Oregon and Montana are some of the loudest in all of college football

And another on the punt team. What is happening.

I don’t know if Montana state knows how to line up, 7 false starts blows my mind, especially with a bigger Montana state crowd.

yeah it’s a huge aspect, especially with how beat up he has gotten this game

This game has been awesome holy crap.

Great news to confirm in the new week!

do yall see him as a p4 starter next year? Curious what money he was offered

this makes me less of a downer. Good luck to Caden though, so fun to watch this year

Awesome event, really hard to find a direct link when you look it up on google. Only things that come up are an alumni story of winemaking and instagram/facebook links to a post that talks about it. Did not find the event on the cal aggie alumni site, athletics site, etc.

this is a very good post. Honestly, I think we are in a particularly good place as a program. I think the best case scenario for us will happen no matter what, but I see pros and cons to both moves. I agree on that super conference at the top, hopefully Davis is able to position themselves/have the cards fall to have us in the best position when that happens

Here’s my opinion: the FCS is great. I like the playoff format, regional rivalries, etc. what I do think is important to note though is that us moving up to the Mountain West for football would be a smart move (in my opinion) because it solidifies us in the group of 5 no matter the changing landscape. For example, if the proposed power 4 split happens and the g5 becomes its own subdivision with its own playoffs, I would like to be positioned in the group of 5 instead of trying to get a move up from the fcs during the craziness that could ensue (no matter the fact that we would probably be at the top of FCS move-up’s if this split happened). I don't necessarily think moving to the MW would be as massive a step up when it comes to some talent (ie Montana state compared to a Nevada), but I think some of the closer regional rivalries, more national prominence of broadcast and name, and better positioning in realignment makes it worth it. I think playing in a conference where the lowest tier teams in the conference for football are UTEP or Nevada is a hell of a lot better for interest than Utah Tech or Portland State. I also honestly think bowl games are fun and provide travel opportunities for the alumni. Let’s face it too, getting into a bowl game is a hell of a lot easier than winning an FCS championship, and while this is completely speculative, I wonder if making it to bowls consistently would be more of a donation driver than fcs playoffs.

My final point. When it comes to money, and I may be wrong here, I am under the impression that teams are paid well to play bowl games, which I’m sure are larger revenue drivers than most fcs playoff matchups (maybe until the semis).

Overall, our position and current goals in the FCS are important, plausible and righteous, but I also think looking down the road a few years, aligning football with all of our other sports in the MW is a foreword looking move that would be a smart idea.

4000.
