Pretty vague on HC and AD involvement. Did they cover it up? I would like to think there is more news to come.

Am I considered one of the "Montana Trolls"? I see Escape Goat fascination continues.

Yes sad news from Missoula today, not sure anyone really knows what is going on. Recently the school did hire the former State Supreme Court Justice to do an independant review on alleged sexual assaults on campus. Some of them are rumoured to have involved Griz football players.

So far only Beau Donaldson (backup FB) has been formally charged with rape, and they have him admitting it during a phone conversation with the woman involved.

More recently Jordy Johnson, starting QB, had a TRO filed against him (some say from an ex gf - but no one knows for sure). That TRO however was dropped in favor of a civil action requiring both parties to stay away from each other. JJ was not allowed to participate in the early spring practices, but had returned earlier this week. Pflugrad came out with the statement about supporting JJ "because of his high moral fiber". Many dont know but he is actually friends with JJ's family (father).

This fallout is just beginning. One of sexual assaults was commited by a student from Saudi Arabia, who was alerted by the school, he was being investigated, and before police could talk to him he fled the country.

This needs to start at the top, and it is probable that school president Royce Engstrom will also be asked to leave, or be fired (he should be as he as handled this very poorly). Also perhaps some other coaches, and it is rumored that 8 players were kicked off the team this morning (as per everyone's buddy Alpha Griz). One of those players is said to be Johnson, the qb.

A very big black eye for one of the premier FCS schools in the country, which will now get lots of National press for all the wrong reasons. We will support the players that remain, and whoever takes over the team on an interim basis however. Second game of the season next year, we return to the general area - Boone, NC to play App State.

Probably laying next to each other in bed, getting some reading done by candlelight before they go to sleep.

If by fascination you mean repulsion to you, then I agree. Carry on pard.

Grizzlies hired interim from within choosing Mick Delaney, who retired in February, after being the RB coach the last few years. Players know him, and coaches respect him. He has committed for the remainder of the year. Who will they hire after this season is anyone's guess although Dan Hawkins name keeps coming up.

Two new coordinators too, OC Timm Rosenbach replaces Johnathan Smith who moved on to Boise State, and DC Ty Gregorak moves up from LB coach to replace Breske who moved on to Washington State as DC. Also picked up former Purdue HC, Leon Burtnett.

So far no players have transferred, and stated they would. Griz will be in Boone in September to play App State!!!
