Missoula, Mont. (8/29/2012)
Thursday, Aug. 30, the University of Montana Athletic Department will release of the first episode of “The Grizzly Den: Inside Montana Football 2012” a documentary video series published on GoGriz.com that will follow the team throughout the upcoming season. The project is being developed by the University of Montana sports information department, in association with Grizzly football.
The series will give Griz Nation a perspective it has never seen before. The videos will show what it takes to be successful on the field and delve into the lives of coaches and players.
Sports Information staff member Jerek Wolcott is heading up the project. He believes this project will be something that Griz fans remember.
“I believe what we are doing is right up there with big production companies,” Wolcott said. “We are working to make this a polished, professional series that is truly an inside look.
“We will be at practice,” Wolcott said. “We will be traveling with the team. We will be inside meetings and locker rooms. The coaches and players have been very generous with their time and have given us access that nobody has had before.”
The project was made possible with investment in equipment by Grizzly Athletics and support from the Grizzly Scholarship Association.
“I think everyone here is excited to see this come to fruition,” Wolcott said. “Most fans just see the players when they are on the field and the few selected for press conferences. This gives us a chance to show every player, from the All-America candidates, to the walk-on, scout team players. These guys are all working hard and deserve the recognition.”
The videos will go live every Thursday morning. The first Video will be a glimpse into the rigors of fall camp. Each subsequent week will show game preparations, travel and in-game footage.
