I just looked it up. His true freshman year they finished 7-4, and he only played in 6 games (didn't start I guess). His sophomore year they made it to the semifinals. Armanti is in a class of his own, as we all know.firemoose wrote:A question GO-When you say JJ lead Montana to a NC his freshman year are you referring to the game itself or a win. Their last NC was 01. They were in the NC game in 08 and 09 but lost to Richmond and Villanova, respectively, if memory serves me correctly. I could be wrong though. My memory isn't what it used to be.GlassOnion wrote:JJ lead them to a NC in his freshman year. Who else has done that, Armanti, and I cant think of any other. They didnt even stick with McKinney for the entire season, somebody must not have been happy with him. Its interesting that the HC said he'd let JJ "try out." After kicking him off the team but proven innocent, you'd think he'd be back on without question.
With JJ, they would have won in Boone last year. But that said, offense was NOT their problem. It was their secondary. We lit them up, so did everyone else.
BTW, just a funny,
I had this discussion last year on AGS how I thought UM would have a down year, because they only returned 3 defensive starters, and no QB, and I got slammed by a griz fan or two, Ursus included, who said montana always reloaded, and history proved that they didnt have down years like other teams.

I think we should come out of Wa-Griz with a resounding win if we stay healthy. If I'm anywhere besides Montana on August 31st I'm going to **** a brick.
