If he comes back it'll be interesting to see how some gris fans manage to change their tune from "good, we didn't want him anyway" to "My man! time for another run!"
They'll just deny it ever happened, like their Tennis team's spelling troubles.


Eastwood, did not make it. Ball out! Recovered, by Montana State!! The Bobcats hold!!! The Bobcats hold!!!

Saw a post on fb, where about 90% of the comments from gris fans said they don't want him back. But several said they'd be fine either way.
If they do let him return, will others bail, like the new transfer qb? Wouldn't blame him.

Ya, as a Cat fan, I don't like this. He's a proven starter that led them to Frisco. So if he comes back, even if he doesn't win the starting job, that's a hell of a proven backup, similar (not as good though) to Sean Chambers.


Great time to be a BOBCAT!

Is this kid just confused? Or messed up emotionally? Even now with all the portal movements, it's gotta be unprecedented for a kid to transfer from school 1 to school 2 to school 3, in 3 years, and then 3 months later, back to school 2. Craziness.

In any case, I don't think he "led" the griz to Frisco, he just got out of the way and let the defense and special teams win games.

Well that was a step down... An example of when the portal doesn't work out for a player.

I am not sure about that. Maybe A&M was a better overall fit for him. Football is not the only consideration.

It seems the team vote to let him back in zoo was no.

Yep I am sure a better fit than the other 4 or 5 locations he has been at. Hopefully he can find the right one, get a degree, and get on with adulthood.

It’s 40 miles from his hometown. That had to have played a role.

He already has a major/minor from Central Arkansas and a year of graduate school in Missoula. Should end up with Masters in Texas.
