Well, Eason just declared. At least 4 Oregon defensive underclassmen submitted for evals from the NFL and Herbert. The entire Arizona State rushing attack declared for the draft and a new OC is coming in. Pittman and crew are headed to the league and the QB battle will extend into the season knowing Helton.
My point is there is no need to paint this bleak picture for next season. The Utes, like every other team in this conference, are not static. Other teams are dealing with personal turnover, coaching turnover, etc. This is where trajectory comes into things. And from a trajectory standpoint Utah and Oregon are the clear front runners in the conference. I have no idea where the “winning the South” ceiling came from but it seems to be all the rage in yesterday’s thread, but like the November curse I guess that is the next hump in the development of the program.
