Proud D.Mac Fan!
This kid is pure class and has done more for the Bobcat football program and Montana State University, on and off of the field, than most of us could ever have imagined. It is always disappointing to lose a football game, and McGhee didn't hesitate to step up and take responsiblity for a bad play... however, this loss isn't just on his shoulders.
I would take D.Mac on my team any time. His character and leadership alone make him one of the most special players/individuals to ever step foot on campus at MSU. Those of you "throwing stones" need to take a step back... look in the mirror... and realize that you will likely never be a fraction of the man that DeNarius McGhee already has become.
Go Cats!

kid is all class. his post game was brutal to watch yesterday. just felt for the guy. but unlike some on this board...I know that DM is far from done and knows that his next game is very winnable.

I agree Dmac is a great kid and a great leader. It takes a lot to stand up there and take responsibility for the game when even though it was probably the worst of your career there were many other factors contributing to the loss.
Sure didn't take Ash long to make sure everyone knew it wasn't his fault. Talk about a great leader!

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
How many players have had three quarters go that bad and then turn it around like he did? Started four for nine, then went 16 for 20 in the fourth. He damn near brought us back and had the coaches managed the clock better he probably would've. The second TD wasted at least a minute and the delays sending plays in cost us another 30 seconds.

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
I don't mean to pile on D-Mac. He's had a great career, and his good games have outnumbered his bad games by at least 10-1. Plus, he manned up and accepted full responsibility for that final play, as he always has after tough losses when he didn't play well. He's a great kid who has never gotten in trouble for anything, is always polite and courteous, and treats everyone with respect. But (and you had to know there was a "but" coming) that last play illustrates why I would take Lulay over McGhee. Lulay was the very definition of clutch. How many times did he lead us to miraculous, come from behind wins during his career? I couldn't help but think during the final moments of that game on Saturday, that Lulay, somehow, some way, would have figured out a way to pull off the win.

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
One of the classiest and most respected guys I've ever seen in college football. Look at what he's done for MSU, it's incredible. Any ideas on where we'd be right now if DeNarius didn't choose to attend MSU? Good chance we don't have the new end zone seating. No way we'd have 3 straight BSC titles and playoff appearances, probably wouldn't have any of either. When my kids wear their Cat gear to school now, it is cool (not that they cared before, they wore it anyway despite the ridicule). The Griz could well be in the middle of another streak. Thank you DeNarius for all you've done for MSU and Cat fans the last 5 years. These proud fans appreciate it and will be there cheering for you this weekend!

So what's your point? I mean why come into a thread about McGhee and say you think Lulay is better? I don't get it. Wet blanket.John K wrote:I don't mean to pile on D-Mac.

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
There's been quite a bit of discussion over the past couple of years about which one was better, especially since McGhee has now broken most of Lulay's records. The game on Saturday reminded me of all the games that were like that during Lulay's career. We'd fall way behind, and then stage a miraculous comeback in the 4th quarter, and we ended up winning most of them in the end. I love D-Mac, and I fully appreciate what he's done for MSU during his career, and I particularly respect the way he's carried himself off the field. I just feel that Travis was a little better in clutch situations like that, but there's no shame in D-Mac being 1B in MSU history, while Lulay is 1A.[cat_bracket] wrote:So what's your point?

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
Then why didn't he win more games than McGhee? How did the cats ever lose with TL under center, if he could just "will" the team to a win?

Any comparison of the two would well be left until D-Mac has finished his career.

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
Because Lulay didn't have as good of players around him...remember? But when Ash took over the cupboards were loaded.

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
Because I believe we've had better overall talent during McGhee's career, than we did during TL's. And I do believe that TL sometimes "willed" us to win some of those games. We were in more desperate situations than the SUU game plenty of times during TL's career, and came back to win. I probably picked the wrong thread to make this point, but geez, how many different ways do I have to say that I think DM has been great...that I think he's a great player and a better person, and I know that much of the credit for our success over the past 4 seasons is owed to him. I just believe that TL was maybe a little better in clutch situations like this last game. Saying that doesn't mean that I think DM is a bum. But again, maybe I should have brought this up in a different thread if I wanted to say it.91catAlum wrote:Then why didn't he win more games than McGhee?

Yep, here's hoping Denarius, Cody, Brad, Tanner... ALL those seniors have themselves a wonderful game to remember. It's been a real treat to watch them shed blood, sweat and tears over the years.

Re: Proud D.Mac Fan!
Five years ago at Cat/Griz we watched DeNarius take in the loss after the game on one knee to um and you knew right than that he understood the dynamics that go into being a MSU Bobcat. He has done everything he could possibly do to become a better QB and a leader of the team. I will be there one more time to watch him Saturday and thank him, Tanner, Cody, Brad, and all the other Seniors for all their hard work. We can only hope we see DeNarius and some of these others play again on Sunday.

I don't know about some of you, but we may still have some more McGhee coming. It is still possible to win it all...
