The Legend of Robert Ford
We have just witnessed probably the most dominating performance by a single Bobcat in the Big Sky Tournament ever.
Wish we had him for a few more years, but wow! What a tournament he had! On to the Dance!

From a really good off the bench player, to a Bobcat legend!!

Re: The Legend of Robert Ford
One of the best performances I have seen ever. All season long, and even better in the tournament.

Re: The Legend of Robert Ford
I also don't recall as great of a team effort as we've seen in these past three games. Eddie Turner was great as was Olmstead and Lecholat, with big contributions by Walker, Patterson, Miller, & Goracke. But Ford just took these games over in the second half. He was one rebound short of a double-double.

Re: The Legend of Robert Ford
And 5 steals to give him an even 100 on the season. As Dickie V would say, he's a stat sheet stuffer.cat-o-nine wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 12:16 amI also don't recall as great of a team effort as we've seen in these past three games.

Re: The Legend of Robert Ford
Some timely baskets by Turner for sure.
R Ford's game tonight was magical. You did SO much! for the Bobcats to storm back and then grab the Win and the Championship! An impressive performance. Ford's heart and desire to win really came through tonight with big play after big play.
Congrats Mr Ford and congrats to the entire Bobcat roster and coaches!

I borrowed this from another thread where MSU01 had posted it. It just seemed to belong in this one.
After reading this, you have to be an even bigger fan of RF.

Re: The Legend of Robert Ford
Ford is a class act, period. Thank RF3 for sticking around and leading us back to the promised land. Maybe the best tournament performance I have ever seen from a Bobcat!

Any chance he has a medical redshirt or something weird in his last 4-5 years, and come back next year?…..
