Tuesdays with Tootell – Tootell & Nuanez on McDowell saga, Mellott’s SR year, Wazzu Hoops

on

Ryan Tootell joins Colter Nuanez to talk about the Clifton McDowell saga at Montana, Tommy Mellott’s senior year and the state of Washington State basketball in relation to the Big Sky Conference. In January, McDowell entered the NCAA Transfer Portal. He ultimately chose Temple, an AAC school that won three games last season. After five spring practices with the Owls, he re-entered the transfer portal. Sources say he is efforting a return to Montana.

Montana State senior quarterback Tommy Mellott is entering his fourth year as a starter. MSU promoted Tyler Walker to OC and hired Chuckie Keaton as the QBs coach this off-season. How will it affect Mellott, a Butte product who led MSU to a Big Sky Conference title in 2022 but had an abrupt exit in the second round of the FCS playoffs last season?

And Washington State offered its men’s basketball job to Matt Logie before he turned it down to stay at MSU. What does that say about the state of affairs at Wazzu?
