Over/Under on how many guys Dan Moore jumps on Friday

[Kgriz]

Meet Dan Moore.


He's not our feature back by any means, in fact he's probably our 3rd string back, but he'll certainly have some carries. He plays with a chip on his shoulder and acts like every play is his last.

He's not a superstar but is a fan favorite and a leader for the griz. Keep an eye on him when he goes in, he's good for 4 or 5 great plays a game.

The last few games he seems to prefer to jump over <175lb DBs diving for his ankles.

If you've skimmed our highlights you've seen him knock some heads.

You say he plays with a chip on his shoulder but didn't explain. Typically to play with a chip on your shoulder it's because you have a grudge or grievance. Was he not recruited by larger schools or something so he has a chip on his shoulder?

Rickie told me that this kid grew up wanting to be a Hawkeye, just like everyone else.

Nah he couldn't hack it for the hawkeyes, that's why he is Div 1aa. Not Div 1

Here's what I got:

In olden days if you were teed off at someone and wanted to make them back down from a position or attitude, you would put a chip of wood on your shoulder and dare the other person to knock it off. If they did, they could expect you to hit them, and the the goal was to make them appear to be a coward when they chose not to take the dare and possibly avoid a fight.

As a Griz fan I have to admit this is dumb. Dan Moore is a hell of a kid in terms of grit and leadership, but he is not a hurdler. His one hurdle only worked because nobody expected it to. And he sure isn't going to hurdle Fort.


But Canada just might!

and most hawkeye players can't hack it in Div I FBS.
which is why they end up losing to Minnesota.

Grizzer, your kinda dumb. This thread was, at least for those of us who are intelligent and have a sense of humor, supposed to be kind of tongue-in-cheek (that means half serious and half humorous). As for hurdling Fort, if you had read the whole post you would have noticed that the Fort comment was a direct response to the "freight-line" comment made directly above it.

Who was the 3rd string RB for UNI from '09. I believe he was a white kid, first name Matt? Maybe? That kid ran with power and authority despite a lack of speed and skills. I remember him dragging 6-7 Sycamores in our home game that year for a first down.........of course that was back when a 2 win Sycamore team=SUPER SUCCESS!!!!!!
