We are lucky to have Kempt as a coach. I love the "Bobcat Way" of doing things...

I've been loving the big plays from Paige but why does he seems to catch 1 ball a game and then disappear?

We seem to hit the young'ns early and then go to the veterans late(Salanoa, Roderick, Griebel, Johnson).

Wasn't that Paige that kept that db off Johnson on that touchdown pass? He is out there and contributing to big plays even if he doesn't have his hands on the ball.

Great story about a kid that gets it, when you have the opposite from another kid today.

I love these articles. Especially when its a great story about a guy stepping up when he is called on.

Not sure if it was Paige or Gates - In the 3rd quarter I think.

Because his primary role is to run a fly route. He's a deep threat, doesn't really have the hands/size to be going over the middle, he could maybe take some quick screens on the outside, but his main role is to run a fly route…and there's only so many times a guy is going to get open doing that during a game.

just think- we have these guys for the next 4 years!!!!! holy cow.

Not to mention guys like Conner Sullivan, and hopefully Dalton Daum and Holden Ryan who will be contributing as well....

When he was going into his junior year of high school, he came to Bobby Daly and my combine in Billings. His pro-shuttle time would have been in the top 12 at the NFL combine for wide receivers. He was 6-3, 197 pounds and....16 years old. He also ran a sub-4.6 40 and had a 33-inch vertical. Again, he was 16.

He's the best wide receiver prospect to come out of Montana since Matt Miller. If he didn't play RB for Central, he'd have been getting Pac 12 offers since that same summer.

Yeah, that was me just hoping both those guys sign with the cats.
