QB Update
What are people hearing on our QB situation?
1. Is Murray involved in Spring practice?
2. How is Rovig's foot healing?
3. Has Bauman bulked up and found a little more speed?
4. Can Beltran break through and pass the others?
I think all four offer something different. I also feel all four could be a solid starter depending on the philosophy. Coach Miller has a lot to work with!

Re: QB Update
Rovig is leader in the clubhouse. Foot is fine. Bauman will push him. Beltran is #3. Murray is focusing on school and working out with the team only. I don't think he will participate in practices this spring. His time will come after his grades are posted this spring.superbobcat wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2019 9:39 amWhat are people hearing on our QB situation?

Re: QB Update
I also noticed the poster mentined bulking up and adding speed in the same post. Can't have both. Which do you want?

Re: QB Update
I thought Troy had that covered. Can you have two on your team? Capes getting tangled up and all.

Re: QB Update
Actually very few have accomplished this task. Maybe if they gain 5 lbs or less. Besides we are talking about Bauman here not Anderson. He was already not the fastest guy. Now you take a 230 lbs. QBand add weight????

Re: QB Update
The vast majority of NFL players have gained weight and increased speed from HS to the combine. The testing numbers are out there, go ahead and look.gtapp wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2019 12:58 pmActually very few have accomplished this task. Maybe if they gain 5 lbs or less.

Re: QB Update
My thought was I don't see any way around the fact that as he lifts and matures, he is going to be a BIG BOY. I hope foot speed and mobility come with the growth. I kind of see a Ben Rothlisburger type player.

The old saying of getting bigger, stronger, and faster has now been changed to bigger, stronger, or faster.

Re: QB Update
So let me get this straight. A high school kid gets a scholly to play football at XYZ State U because he’s the fastest guy in XYZ. As he matures and adds weight and strength, he’ll never be faster than the day he set foot on campus? That’s the most rediculous thing I’ve heard in a while on BN.

You know it's been too long since the season ended when a thread goes off the rails this fast.
Eastwood, did not make it. Ball out! Recovered, by Montana State!! The Bobcats hold!!! The Bobcats hold!!!

Some theories say muscle contracts at a speed determined by genetics. If this is true, top speed won't change as measured by a radar gun. However, with more muscle you can get to your inherent top speed quicker, realizing a faster 40 time. I'll take quickness over top speed in football....both are awesome. My own 40 times, vertical and cone drill results all improved greatly through Olympic lifts and heavy power lifting. I also gained 20 lbs over 3 years. Increased weight, increased quickness vastly increased impacts. Not to mention improved running mechanics and muscle memory through training and practice.....
Newer research contests some of these older ones by showing muscle can contract faster with training (fast twitch) and combined with explosive training...well you get the idea. BIGGER FASTER STRONGER. (not the program

Training the nervous system to recruit more fibers at any given moment in time is another factor in power output. Trained athletes are able to recruit a higher percentage then average folks through training and have vastly improved quickness with hypertrophied cells. Ironically couch potatoes have a higher percentage of Type IIB cells.....it's complicated. (allows for fight or flight response with a dose of epinephrine)

Re: QB Update
So what you're saying is now that I gained a hundred pounds I should be able to run a hundred-yard dash in under 10 seconds,? Cool, to bad I used up all of my eligibility or I'd be a badass on the field now.Norsky19 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 2:17 amCorrect.94VegasCat wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2019 4:28 pmSo let me get this straight.

Re: QB Update
Ha ha MTbob if only it were that easy. I don't know you but highly doubt that you gained those 100 pounds from the right training program.
If you're looking for someone with a little authority, I'm your man. I have as little as anyone!

Re: QB Update
What’s the average distance it takes an elite athletes to get to full speed? If it’s ‘burst’ that’s increasing, the 40 time is getting better albeit small increments (if I’m reading correctly). Troy Anderson it appears, hits max speed within a few strides. Chris Murray appears as such too. Not saying they are elite runners but damn impressive by Big Sky Conference standards.Norsky19 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 16, 2019 2:17 amCorrect.94VegasCat wrote: ↑Fri Mar 15, 2019 4:28 pmSo let me get this straight.

Re: QB Update
Train by running at a decline and I guarantee you'll get faster.
Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.
