MSU’s new number “41” tradition
https://msubobcats.com/news/2019/7/21/f ... state.aspx
Pretty cool idea. Montana is the 41st state and MSU has had some great players with this number. It will, ala UM with #37, go to a Montana player.
Braydon Konkol will don number 41 this year.

Re: MSU’s new number “41” tradition
Sorry, but this is a terrible idea. UM already has this special number "tradition", let them have it. Let's differentiate ourselves from the dumpster fire community college 200 miles west of Bozeman, not emulate them. Seriously, who thought this was a good idea? NOT impressed...TomCat88 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 21, 2019 12:08 pmhttps://msubobcats.com/news/2019/7/21/f ... t-montana-

Sounds like it was Choate’s. Sorry you don’t like it and I sure hope it doesn’t ruin your Sunday.

Re: MSU’s new number “41” tradition
Many college football programs have traditions related to jersey numbers in one way or another. It's not a special UM thing. If Choate believes it will help promote a legacy of strong culture in the locker room, why not?grizzh8r wrote: ↑Sun Jul 21, 2019 12:51 pmSorry, but this is a terrible idea.

Re: MSU’s new number “41” tradition
It actually pisses me off we didn't do this years ago. Are we not allowed to have our own number tradition? Or is that also only a Griz thing.RobertoGato wrote: ↑Sun Jul 21, 2019 1:08 pmMany college football programs have traditions related to jersey numbers in one way or another.

Re: MSU’s new number “41” tradition
I've liked the idea from when it was first floated - its our own and has nothing to do with um-besides we already own 37.TomCat88 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 21, 2019 12:08 pmhttps://msubobcats.com/news/2019/7/21/f ... t-montana-

Also love the idea of Konkol flying the flag to begin with!

Dang! I won a MSU jersey raffle once and I had a choice between #41 and another number. I didn't take 41.

Re: MSU’s new number “41” tradition
I've got a #41 cat-griz 2010 game worn jersey. I bought it in 2011 because of Daly but I think it was Moeakeola who wore it in 2010. That was Daly's year off.

Re: MSU’s new number “41” tradition
I really like the idea, and with the #37 drubbing we handed to the grizz, I had to go look at their 41 to make sure they weren't going to return the favor somehow.

I love the 41 idea. Coach is also flying in at least one former player this summer, to talk to the team during camp.

When I saw Tomcats headline I thought it was all about the Bobcat's legendary 1941 football team. I'm all over that!! Nobody except Georgia Tech and the Academies have that tradition capability.

Re: MSU’s new number “41” tradition
Was that team mentioned in the story? Another great reason for that number. It has a lot of meaning to it.
Here’s what we’re talking about:

With everything we do and everything we don’t do, what the griz think should be the last thing on our mind.
