Danny Sprinkle
Danny cementing his legend status in Bozeman, leading Bobcat basketball back from the brink. We talk about Troy and retiring his number in football, and the statue of Sonny Holland just outside the stadium. Are we looking the possibility of needing a statue of Danny in the Fieldhouse when this is all said and done?!

Re: Danny Sprinkle
He's definitely off to a great start! Unfortunately I don't think Sprinkle will stick around long enough to get that statue.

Re: Danny Sprinkle
Coach Randy Bennett has been coaching at St. Mary's of the WCC for 21 years, despite multiple offers to move to bigger schools. Coach Bennett, like Coach Few at Gonzaga, apparently prefers to coach a mid-major school. Maybe Coach Sprinkle will be similarly inspired.

Re: Danny Sprinkle
Sprinkle is going to be a great coach and the Cats are having a great year, but I think it’s a little early for statue talk. Going to need a season or two with his own players. First title in 20 years is amazing, but there’s this thing called the Big Sky Tourney on the horizon.Camo_Cat wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 4:47 pmDanny cementing his legend status in Bozeman, leading Bobcat basketball back from the brink.

Re: Danny Sprinkle
Which players who contribute to this year’s team aren’t Sprinkle’s players? I ask because I don’t know, but isn’t this his third season as coach? Surely some of those players were brought to Bozeman by Dan.Ilikecats wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 6:59 pmSprinkle is going to be a great coach and the Cats are having a great year, but I think it’s a little early for statue talk.

Re: Danny Sprinkle
The list of current contributors who weren't Sprinkle recruits begins and ends with Jubrile Belo, who signed with MSU during Brian Fish's last season but never played for him.
Coach Sprinkle has done a phenomenal job this year but the Covid year that allowed Bishop, Adamu, and Mohamed to all come back this season helped him mightily. Next year is going to be a big test, as Sprinkle's big 2021 Freshman class is going to need to step up and fill some of the minutes MSU will be losing from its senior class.

Re: Danny Sprinkle
Battle ought to be a contributor.
Can't make up my mind as to which is better - 55-21 or 48-14, but 34-11 will do.

Re: Danny Sprinkle
Let’s give some credit to Chris Haslam too. He brought in some studs.

Re: Danny Sprinkle
If we want to keep Coach Sprinkle and Haslem, we as boosters need to pony up some $'s. The legislature certainly won't do it and that ties the hands of the University.
