Re: Coach Choate - Preview of 2019 Season in Billings
So based on what Coach Miller talked about 2019- should we be excited about next year?

Re: Coach Choate - Preview of 2019 Season in Billings
I wonder out of all the coaches, who dominates the room, who lightens the mood with humor, and who just sits there. I have my thoughts and I think Choate is talkative but not overly opinionated. I wonder who is the smartest coach; just a guy that knows academics, history, random facts, knowledge. I'll do some digging on education and the like. Maybe one day I'll post my smartest coaches in the Big Sky list. Give me a week on that!Hawks86 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 13, 2019 10:51 amAnacomando wrote: ↑Tue Feb 12, 2019 10:18 pmChoate was not there; I don't know how commitments can get this confused.

Anyone know if they'll be doing one of these meet ups in Kalispell/Missoula?

Re: Coach Choate - Preview of 2019 Season in Billings
I'd like to go to one of those meetings just to listen to Barnum. But I agree with Vim...I wouldn't be surprised if Choate is the most opinionated person in the room. He's never been afraid to share his opinion.RobertCats wrote: ↑Thu Feb 14, 2019 1:59 pmYeah, and I bet Barnum is all business and barely says a word!catatac wrote: ↑Thu Feb 14, 2019 12:35 pmlolVimSince03 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 14, 2019 11:13 amChoate literally may be the most opinionated person in the room.Anacomando wrote: ↑Wed Feb 13, 2019 11:16 pmI wonder out of all the coaches, who dominates the room, who lightens the mood with humor, and who just sits there.

It appears that Barnum farted by the the looks of Bobby and Dan!

Re: Coach Choate - Preview of 2019 Season in Billings
I was thinking the same thing. Roads from Bozeman are probably a bit sketchy. Until I’m told otherwise, I’m assuming it is still on.

It’s postponed.
I just got an email on it. Roads are too crappy right now.

Hoping someone who attended will give the rest of us a debrief?

Re: Coach Choate - Preview of 2019 Season in Billings
Choate was fun to listen to. Some football and lots about MSU. Asked what players he thought have showed flashes and potential that we may not see due to being buried behind depth, being a freshman or just isn't noticed during games, Nolan Askelson, Lewis Kid, and Lane Sumner. What changes to the Defense we might see. More four on the line but not always. Also wasn't happy we couldn't get off the field on third downs. This was related to not being able to cover the receivers in the seam. It was a question he asked Kane Ioane when they were discussing him coming back at the DC. He gave the right answer according to Choate, LOL. Chris Murray is only working out with the team 1 out of 3 times. The other two he is at a study table. Said he was proud of Chris for staying at MSU and trying to take care of the academics. He said he doesn't know if he will take another snap as a Bobcat but he has developed as a person though all of this. Team has only been able to complete several spring practices. The turf at the stadium is still frozen so they can't practice on it yet. Need several warm days. The collapse of the gym's is going to really hurt all sports due to lack of inside practice space. Talking of using bubbles on one of the intramural fields. Someone asked why replacing the east bleachers wasn't the first priority and he said for recruiting and just better spaces for all student athletes it made for sense do the football offices first. He said he would love to have the indoor practice facility but this needed to happen first.
