I’m taking the same stance. We get this song and dance every season how this is the best fill in the blank we’ve ever had. Blah blah blah. Only to find it underperforms in game.

He was born in California and attended high school there so I don’t know where that little accent comes from.

I know I am being picky here but I thought it would have been better visually to have all 3 coaches up there together taking questions rather than having them come up separately. Other than that, I liked what I heard.

Man, I don’t think it would be that hard to fill 3-4 hours of time. Between Utah football, Big 12 football, Big 12 basketball, Utah Jazz and whatever the fuck your hockey team is, there is so much.

4 hours = 60 min blocks.
Each block has about 20 mins of commercials, which means 40 mins of talk time. You are talking for 10 mins, 5 min break.…[Read more]

As I mentioned elsewhere, Cam’s dad told me that if he plays, Cam will likely be somewhere other than Utah.

Interesting point about the audibles. Remember another successful QB at Utah that did the same? BJ.

Is Beck Canadian? Once in a while he had some kind of “hoser” accent. Or maybe upper midwest?

Among my proudest Ute moments were watching Cam dive into the end zone in the closing minutes to beat USC and then beating the Trojans again in Vegas to win another PAC12 trophy.

But time to clear the way for another leader at QB.

His words immediately thereafter were “so you can read into that”. That was followed by (paraphrased) “That’s on Cam to make that known.”

If he’s not on the roster and we can read into it that makes the assumption pretty obvious.

I was already excited about the Beck hire, but listening to him speak both about personnel and his philosophy have me even more hopeful we got a good one.

Utah sports talk radio 101 content is capturing both BYU-Utah, and the hybrids. Kall 700 is very protective of KW. Occasionally poach the Utah football specific guests, Weddle, Mitchell, coaches, pressers, etc on the podcast rewind. Other than that, OC’s program is hard to listen to live. I imagine filling 3-4 hours of talk radio everyday is c…[Read more]

Technically Whitt said, “He’s not on the current roster.” That would leave the door open. I am not suggesting or hoping that Cam stays. I’m just saying that Whitt’s words were carefully parsed, leaving the door open.

BUT – I do not think Cam is staying. Personally, I think we need to move on. I love CR, but we need to move on to the next…[Read more]

Whitt is so fond of Rising, that it wouldn’t surprise me to see Rising stick around as a GA this year. Why keep killing your body? Get a head start on a coaching career, if that’s what he’s into. It’s certainly more lucrative than Criminal Justice.

Our best success with Ludwig was when Cam was changing the plays at the line. He very well may…[Read more]

That was Whit flat out telling us, without telling us out right, that Cam is NOT coming back. He knows it’s Cam’s place to announce that, BUT he isn’t waiting around. He wants to make it known due to the criticism a lot of fans have given him regarding Cam’s injuries.

Regarding Cam, he changed Utah football and showed us what could be with the…[Read more]

For the most part OC is pretty good. He travels a lot so he has a replacement host that is awful. I agree the home of the Utes shouldn’t be talking about the Y. I get that this past season they were up and we were down so it was maybe more appealing to talk about them, but the only interview should be maybe on a rivalry week.
I listened and…[Read more]

Spence sucks for sure, biggest byu homer yet.

move on from Rising.

I used to be a very loyal listener to ESPN 700 and 1280. Both have gone downhill IMO. I just stopped listening to all of it and I have been much happier. I have also stopped obsessing over recruits, NIL, and the portal. When I did, it put it all in perspective for me and it has made me become less obsessed with all things Utah, Big 12, etc.…[Read more]

I agree, O’Connell is obsess with BYU. I stop listening to his show. I want till 2 to start listening to 700AM. I use not miss the earlier show (11AM-2pm)
I have no problem with someone who enjoys the loves BYU football, but he should go on the other channel.
It’s always humorous when Individuals that are on radio read messages like ours they tak…[Read more]
