Tommy Mellott

Former Montana State QB Tommy Mellott just signed a multi-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders. Here's what he'll be paid in his first year.

When you think of Montana State Football in recent years, you think of the Butte native that lead the Cats to 2 National Championship Games in 4 years.

The future is bright at Montana State football.

With the NFL Draft quickly approaching, what are the odds that MSU's Tommy Mellott will be drafted?

This Saturday, Butte's "Touchdown" Tommy Mellott will lead the MSU Bobcats into Bobcat Stadium for the final time and, as expected, it is deep in the FCS Playoffs. Very deep. If the Bobcats beat South Dakota. Montana State will return to the National Championship game, a place they have been to before. In fact, had it not been for an injury to Mellott early in their last championship appearance many (including myself) believe the Bobcats would have won the game. But that is not the point. The point is that Mellott has brought the Bobcats back.

Whether you're a kid who wants to learn from Butte High and Montana State legend Tommy Mellott and his teammates from the MSU Bobcats at a day camp, a Bobcat fan who wants to rub shoulders with the players or a business representative who is interested in seeing how the Bobcats can help your organization as a result of the NCAA's NIL (Name, Image and Likeness) program, Tuesday, July 16th is your day.

Colt Anderson is bringing out the big guns for the Dream Big Montana experience and he's keeping things locally. He's got Tommy Mellott and and Dylan Cook coming in to instruct alongside NFL veterans and coaches at the skills camp. He's also keeing it locally in other aspects as well. Let's talk about the musical entertainment side of things. Thursday night, June 27th Uptown Butte is in for a treat and the stars are all homegrown.

Colt Anderson's Dream Big Foundation has set the dates and locations for the Dream Big Montana Experience 2024, and it is safe to say that Uptown Butte will be rocking on Thursday and Friday, June 27th and 28th with everything from a Tim Montana concert to a football skills camp.

While only a pair of games are on the college sports schedule here in Butte, there is a lot of action happening only a couple hours away from town in either direction, especially if you like playoff football.
