CWU Star RB Michael Roots to Transfer

[tsull]

Michael Roots just announced that he is decommitting from Dixie State and reopening his recruitment. Not sure what is going on there because I look like he was going to get a lot of playing time. It doesn't look like Kelly Bills is leaving. Maybe they added another transfer running back? Weird.

Why not make the most of the CWU situation, it's not like the. coach is going to risk losing to win some battle with Roots. He's going to get his snaps. Maybe make the most of where you're at, like Bighill, Mike Reilly, and others ... then again, that would take hard work, persistence, sticking with it, can't have that in today's world.

The Montana football program and the Dixie State football program don't really equate. Looking at the games DSC played this spring, they split two games with Tarleton and lost to two other FCS teams they played and beat the heck out of Fort Lewis which is an RMAC tradition. Montana is always in the playoff hunt and has a very strong program.

I remember when Dixie State was in the GNAC and would lose regularly to SFU. Back when the conference had 7 football schools!!!

You mean that glorified scrimmage where FCS got literally 10 times more practices than D2? Yeah, that one. Maybe Montana can play some D3 schools ... they didn't have football at all.

Did CWU play Montana a few weeks ago? What was that score?

If CWU played Dixie, I'd pick CWU. WOU with a paltry number of scholarships hung with Portland State, beat Sac State, and beat Southern Utah in the last decade. CWU almost beat one of Montana's best teams in Missoula, losing on a last-second FG. Players are too caught up on FCS vs. D2. Also, what if Roots doesn't like his situation down there? Does he quit?

He seemed to do quite well under Kelly Bills in 2019 so I am sure he will like it just fine this time around too.

I looked at DSU It looks like their top rusher from the brief 2020 season was a freshman, second leading rusher was the quarterback, third leading rusher was another freshman. So especially with Kelly Bills leading the offense, Roots will get plenty of snaps.
