Who’s the next 41?

[FlatheadCatt]

I’ve been thinking about this a lot and there are a number of ways the cats could go for next year.

1. Caden seems like the obvious choice here but don’t want to count out other worthy players.

2. Caden and taco could both been number 41 since they play on opposite sides of the ball. It’d be neat but may diminish the number. And I don’t know if a WR could wear 41?

3. There are a number of other players it could be, all good choices.

Eligible players (I think)
- Caden Dowler
- Taco Dowler
- Jaren Perkins
- Tommy Nilson
- Jake Vigen
- Ryan Krahe
- Zac Crews
- Neil Daily

Lastly I am curious who selects the next 41. I know the current Griz #37 gets to pick their successor but I’m not sure about 41 for us.

Just some thoughts going into the off season!

Go Cats baby!

Caden

Caden is also my knee-jerk reaction to that question. There are others that would be worthy of consideration, but he feels like the consummate 41 for MSU.

[SparkCat]

Will Zac crews be a senior, but has 2 more years of eligibility?

[nanacat]

Caden 41/Taco 14. Could it be anymore perfect?

[CodyCat]

I’d pick Crews. Dude has had a hell of a ride.

[MountainCat]

Caden or Crews would each be fitting, both embody so many fine qualities from diligence and hard work to perseverance through extremes.

He has two years to play one.

Caden 41/Taco 14. Could it be anymore perfect?

If Taco can wear 41, I love the idea of both guys wearing 41. I don’t think they are ever on the field together.

41-14 Caden should be 41 and Taco is 14.

They’re already 41. 36+5.

It’s Caden. Easiest choice ever.

Although it would be pretty funny to see a coach pick his kid for it, not that that’s ever happened anywhere.

Especially when then the “team” chose someone else… That could never happen… Could it?

This. Taco & Caden, 14 and 41. It just makes sense. Taco has too much merch out there with 14 on it to switch now.

Oooh.....I love this idea.

He has two years to play one.

With the redshirt rule changing from four games to nine, could the Cats take advantage of that with a player like Crews? He could sit out games that are likely wins (Utah Tech, Butler, Central Connecticut) and play in the rest. I’m assuming postseason games still don’t count toward the game limit.

I bet you probably could, but do you really wan to sit your best DE for 3 games?

Against those team so he would have another year... I sure would consider it!

The P4 came up with that rule proposal. Its not an FCS rule.
