      The Rising drama the last two years is too much. Seeing Rising laughing on the sidelines when the team is performing poorly was really the last nail. Wilson looks very good at times and has enormous potential. I’d rather him gain experience now and lead the team. I do think he can still get the Utes to 9 or 10 wins this season with the Big 12 looking like garbage.

      I second this. I appreciate Cam for what he accomplished here but I hope I don’t see him on the field again.

      This team was built to win this year and reset next year. You don’t reset now if Rising can play. It’s too bad he’s just collecting checks and calling it a day.

      I’m p**sed at Rising, but hell no. We just scored 10 points in a night game at home with Wilson as our QB. He’ll be good. But he’s not ready.

      I’m to the point that if Cam isn’t out there starting against AZST, then it’s time to go with Wilson. I’m very happy that everybody on here at the moment seems to understand there’s going to be growing pains with Isaac, but that you can see the potential there. He clearly has some things he needs to get better doing, but that’s pretty typical with a true freshman.

      I’m not as positive as you. I like Wilson and think that he has a future but what we saw tonight might be a sample of what’s to come once a defensive book is put together on Wilson. Let’s be serious, Arizona, up to this game, was not a good defensive team. Yet somehow they put together a game plan that pretty much limited Utah’s opportunities. If we jettison Rising, wins might be hard to come by. It’s just me, but I’d rather have the guy that gives Utah the best chance to win play QB.

        AZ dbs had a ton of PBUs that were in receiver’s hands. They did get away with 3 PIs on Singer alone. I don’t fault Wilson for what seems to be a longstanding tradition in recent Utah Football seasons. The “wtf” game. Like against Florida at the Swamp etc. Credit their dbs tonight. They played well for the most part.

      Wilson clearly is not ready and needs to be put back on the shelf. The play calling didn’t help. If Cam plays that game we win.

      It was a little concerning to have him smiling and laughing with the other QB’s on the sideline, especially when it was apparent the game was lost.

      I think this loss was a wakeup call to the team. I think they’ll right this ship and we’ll see a much better football team because of it. Especially if Cam returns for ASU fully healthy. Based on the other Big 12 games we saw today, we could very well win out.

      I can’t believe you guys are this emotional after a loss 😂. Cam gives us a better chance to win. We have a shot at the playoff this year. We clearly play Cam when he is back for ASU. Everyone chill out

        To be fair, I think compared to other losses, the takes have been more reasonable.

      I could understand that it would be best to play Wilson to prepare him for next year… but we have no idea if we’ll be good next year. Whitt could leave and we could get transfers leaving. We have an opportunity to make some noise now and that should be the plan. We can get healthier and win out as there is no juggernaut in our conference.

      People have every right to feel mad at Rising for the face he’s missed so many game and that he’s been paid a lot, but it is best case for our team that he comes back and heals

      I think energy will be much different after we get Cam back and remember how important he is. I get the frustration, I think it’s ok to be upset right now and then back on the Cam train once he gets back.

      Are you guys crazy? Have you watched this season? Has Isaac Wilson shown enough to give us reason to be excited for the future? Yes. He shows a lot of promise. Cam Rising took us to two Rose Bowls. Am I frustrated that Cam took completely unnecessary hits that increased the risk of injury? Way freaking frustrated. So yeah, part of this loss is on him. But not b/c of what he’s doing right now. There is no way he’s sitting out collecting checks and happy about it. If he could play and play well, then he obviously would. We just have to hope he’s back by ASU. Isaac is clearly not ready to help us win a conference championship this year. And I am absolutely not up for another year like last year. As was said above, we were built to win this year.

      Who cares. This program has turned into complete garbage.
