Well, this partially aged well.MSU01 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 10, 2022 10:06 amColor me very very skeptical that the Big Sky's push for GameDay will be any more successful than it was last year. JSU has Deion Sanders, MSU has...a lot of snow and ice usually at that time of year. They'd probably use the new celebrity Bobcat fan Nick Faldo as guest picker.

I am disappointed in the size of the crowd. I expected them to fill the practice fields.

Re: Gameday IS COMING!!!
I honestly thought the crowd would be 2-3 times bigger. The cold weather maybe? Maybe they trickle in later? Do they limit the number of fans initially? I wouldn’t think so

^ There wasn't any limit on attendance when it was at the Bison games. There was 1000's of people and very crowded events at the couple that were there.
Over 10K attended in a downtown setting near the stadium.

Faldo is guest picker. I like Nic but it doesn't fit the norm for guest pickers I expected Erickson or Stenerud.

Faldo is loaded, not a bad guy for MSU to be building a relationship with. Maybe he can chip in whatever's left for the IPF!

Re: Gameday IS COMING!!!
Really, he's not allowed his opinion? I also would have loved having a Bobcat. I really have no problem with Faldo, just a preference.

Watching ESPN College GameDay in Bozeman on the greatest college campus in America, and watching Lee Corso don the Bobcat head, may be the greatest thing I've seen in my lifetime when it comes to Bobcat athletics. My life is complete.......

Re: Gameday IS COMING!!!
Faldo was just a convenient fit since he was in the area already.
You go with who is available, but using a celebrity that moved there six months ago is pretty disappointing. I really wanted to see someone that had ties to the state.

I thought those who were there represented well! It’s not easy getting young people out of bed early. Glad the rodeo and ski team got some much deserved recognition too.The only thing missing was a hot tub.HookedOnGriz wrote: ↑Sat Nov 19, 2022 8:59 amI honestly thought the crowd would be 2-3 times bigger.

Re: Gameday IS COMING!!!
ESPN isn't looking for someone with ties to the state, they're looking for someone who a fan in Texas or Virginia or Florida will probably know. Faldo was the obvious choice to me all along, he already lives in Bozeman and most sports fans know who he is.DMMDCats wrote: ↑Sat Nov 19, 2022 9:43 pmUnless he made a call and made it happen.
