Whitt just can’t let go

So if you only play 4 games a year, you can just play forever?

Also, let’s stop calling it 7th year senior and 8th year senior. What else can we call it? 5th year senior, ok. Anything past that, call it something else.

Clutch Points is basically Buzz Feed click bait. The entire article was based on Whitt saying he’ll let Cam decide his future. Nothing earth shattering. What else is he supposed to say in a really quick exchange with Furlong? “Utah football’s Cam Rising gets big update on Utes future” that word salad headline alone lets you know the quality of work.

here’s the funny/sad part. IF Cam were to come back…and did somehow become healthy and lead our team to a 10 win season or better next year. Almost everyone here would forget everything we said this year and jump right back on the Cam Train. Hope springs eternal. I’m not nearly hypocritical enough to exempt myself from this.

I’m just saying we’ve had 2 years running of a Dumb and Dumber “you’re saying there’s a chance” smacking us in the face but a interesting part of fandom is that fanatic aspect will rule…as long as we win.

That being said I would rather us make smart long-term decisions now than hang our hopes on another long shot outcome.

I’m for whoever is the best QB available next year. If that is Cam, I am for Cam. This team needs a viable QB2, and it needs an offense that can work for a quarterback who has not been in the system and/or sitting in the booth with the OC for years. I am mostly worried about our O-line and RB rooms.

I am fine with Cam coming back as long as his NIL is less than $100,000. Use the money somewhere else.

I hopped on the no more Cam train about two games into last season, maybe three. Cam has NEVER made it through a full season without an injury. That means bowl game too. The most games he played in a season I believe was 2022, but was hurt against Penn St. and that was the worst injury, more so than his shoulder.

If Cam comes back next year, I’m out. I am already losing interest in CFB due to the current lack of rivalries, regional games. I’ve always hated the “Holy War.” MWC and Pac were great. Big XII, not my conference. I loved watching Utah vs. Pac12. The Cam show jumped the shark 14 months ago.

Watching the Utes this year is sad. No team cohesion, no all in or in the way, just “in the way.” Players admit there is a problem, but none will talk about it. Rumors about the locker room, it’s old.
