  Wow. That’s terrible!!! Only one of those wins was against a team with a winning record.
  
  If our basketball team had a 3 – 10 record in conference, he would likely be fired. Just saying.

  Someone used Jim Mora as an example of firing a good coach to hire Chip Kelly. I never liked the hiring of Kelly but firing Mora was a great decision. His defensive philosophy was bad. Not as bad as Whitts attitude towards the offense has been but not far off. Utah is trending towards the very bottom in offense this season though.

    Of those 21 non conference wins have any of those teams finished ranked? The USU GA team I think may have been. They lost that in Whitt fashion.

      really, 23-1 isn’t good enough for you?
      
      including wins over BYU 7 times, Michigan (2), Indiana, West Virgina, etc

        No closer to a PAC12 title. He is running out of excuses and saying it is too hard is ridiculous.

        In utterly meaningless games? No, it means nothing. Conference games are all I really care about, and Whitt is failing, hard.

    Our non conference opponents have been a joke.

      Maybe, except bowl games. WVU, for example, is pretty formidable.
      They’ve played Michigan well.
      
      Utes have played some FCS teams, but they’ve been top-shelf FCS teams. That said, I’d rather see non-conf games set against good G5 teams in the Utes’ recruiting areas (Cal and Texas) in place of the odd FCS game or random G5 game — good thing they signed-up for NIU instead of North Texas this year, however. And of course the Utes are stuck playing TDS every fricking year.

        WVU QB was hurt. They are very good with him.

        They would have crushed us with Will Grier. Period.

        better game yes, but WVU couldn’t stop Utah’s ground game (200 yards rushing)

        It’s not like our defensive line didn’t absolutely destroy WVU’s offensive line. Nope, that never happened either.

      Maybe, but Whitt is not the one scheduling those opponents. Blame CH for that. Maybe Harlan will be better at scheduling.
