Interesting....not very much Montana there

Both preseason RBs from the same team....interesting. Is that a product of the rest of the conference teams being pass-happy or are they really that good?

Not really surprising considering how last season went. I think a few people will emerge this year though.

First thing I noticed! Ash must have left the cupboard really bare! I think they'll get it turned around but it's not going to be overnight. While Bozeman is beautiful I don't think it's the easiest place to recruit to.
