      Any thoughts as to why Kuithe hasn’t announced his decision to return next year or move on? Seems like Cam’s announcement was a tactical one before the portal opened to help draw in recruits. Do you think Kuithe is waiting on something to let everyone know his decision? (No pressure on him to announce – more so curious as to the strategy of waiting compared to Cam)

      I think the team knows the way he is leaning and it is 98% done. It is a big decision for a college kid and he may be watching draft news and keeping all his options open for while. Myself, I prefer that football players wait for the team’s season to end to make announcements.

      We’ll learn when he announces it. No sooner, no later.

      Bowl game. When he dresses with the team… 👀

      I’m not 100 percent certain that Kuithe comes back. Even after being out of action for 14-15 months, I’m still seeing him pop up as a 6th/7th Rd pick in various mock drafts. Maybe he just decides to bet on himself and attempt to stick with a team? He surely isn’t getting any younger.

      I’m guessing it’s NIL related, and he might be trying to negotiate for more (versus as Miami mentioned considering the NFL).

        Good point. I didn’t think about the NIL factor. Maybe the collective is trying to lowball Kuithe? According to all of the data I’ve seen, he’s one of the highest paid Utes but hasn’t played in almost two seasons. I could see the Crimson Collective trying to get him to lower his financial expectations.
