Was he and Ecby not allowed to suit up because they wore sweat pants to a team meeting? Maybe that was worded poorly in the article but if true CPR maybe overboard with his team rules.

Thats not the reason DM admitted in an interview he had a bad attitude and was lucky to still be here. He will play this week and has straightened his attitude out.

If Montgomery cant stay out of the dog house it's time to let him go. He's been warned, he knows the rules, enough is enough.


Yea what the hell lets just kick another great player off our team. We couldn't get worse could we. Is that what we are all striving for now? A team of good boys who all get along. It was known that Montgomery would sit game one, a long time ago. As for GR starting...umm no. I watched him in two scrimmages and it wasn't even close as to who are starting qb should be.

Assuming Bundrage is out, I'd like to see Montgomery, Daley and West start but IIRC Montgomery and Daley play the same position.

Also, anyone else still completely bothered to see us once again waste Jarvis West's skillset? We have arguably the most elusive guy to ever put on a Cyclone uniform and we do absolutely nothing creative to get him the ball in space.

He was open a handful of times, but Richardson never got him the ball... there was one time when he had a 5 yard cushion on everyone on a post, richardson never looked at him... that was what absolutely killed me yesterday.

The things people come up with on message boards...unreal.

STREET CLOTHES: Wide receivers D’Vario Montgomery and Tad Ecby wore sweat pants Saturday. “Violation of team policies,” Rhoads noted. “(Out) just this game.”

Direct from article by Gray. I had heard earlier that he admitted to a bad attitude and being lucky to still be with the team however I thought that was why he was 4th on the depth chart. At the time I thought that was his punishment but hoped he would still play. Then I read this from Gray's article.

Question for persons at the game- Close in TV cameras don't show this. Why do our receivers not get open? I assume the reason Richardson is not throwing the ball is because no one is open.

EJ bibb 1 rec for 8 yards wow

He was double teamed for most of the game. In theory, that's some of the reason why Sam was able to scramble for 7-10 yards underneath a few times.

I'm afraid that's going to happen a lot this season, esp. if bundrage is out. The defenses we will face have now been shown a blueprint of exactly how beat us. Double-team Bibbs to make him a non-factor, and take the chance that we can't (or won't ?) get the ball downfield to one of our other receiver in 1-on-1 coverage. That chance worked out well for NDSU.

So you're admitting you're wrong?

Montgomery and Ecby sat yesterday because they failed drug tests in the winter. They should be playing next week. From what I've heard QB is gonna be out for the year with a torn ACL. Thats how it looks anyways. That means the starters will probably be Lazard, West, and Daley. Montgomery will play a lot.

To be clear: they were wearing sweats (as opposed to uniforms) BECAUSE they were suspended for previous violations of team rules. They were not suspended for wearing sweats.

Clear as mud?

Thanks for the info., I thought he may have worded that poorly.

I would love to see Montgomery become our big-play guy, our Mike Wallace.

Lazard become our redzone receiver/anything 20 yards or less unless he can break something/get open deep

Ecby and West in da slot.
