Good post Pedro. Whitt has limited funds and has to divide the money between a lot of players. They evaluate the players and pay is based on value to the program. They can’t over pay (Rising) or someone else gets shorted. Salary caps keep NFL and NBA competitive. MLB has a similar problem with no cap. Until there is an equal playing field we w…[Read more]

On my wish list is that the football team has a far smaller number of season ending injuries!

Perhaps second on the list is they reduce the price of season tickets and CC fees. HAHAHAHAHA THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN.

GO UTES

I guess the only thing that matters is. Do we trust the coaching staff ?

Yes, life is full of ups and downs. We all face challenges. I just hope to find the strength to handle mine.

Best wishes to you and your parent.

It has been a tough last 4 months for me, and I assume many of you feel the same. But, it’s just football. I have placed way too much of my happiness in how Utah football goes. I drank the kool-aid. (My mistake. I know better.)

Overall, my life is great, and I will spend the holiday with all but two of my wonderful grandchildren. It doesn’t…[Read more]

The net effect seems to be that the top talent will play, but the next-most talented will bounce to another playing opportunity, instead of patiently being a backup.
Therefore the top talent is spread thin at the the top. you don’t have schools backlogging studs, as they will be Portalling, looking for opportunties.
Effectively, the top talent…[Read more]

I miss Loboman (formerly of uf.n). He was a great supporter of our Utes, when we went to beat Alabama.
Sad to see the Lobos so decimated by the current football world. Hope they can rebound soon and be competitive again.

Here’s what we know…we know that college football, under a certain set of guidelines, has been wildly popular for over a hundred of years. In fact, at one time college football was much more popular than professional football.

Here’s what we don’t know…we don’t know if professionalizing college football will expand or even maintain its…[Read more]

Reality is Whit is working with a limited amount of funds. You see our AD was busy trying to increase our revenue in dimes from our fans, when he should have been working the philanthropist for dollars. Now we’re scrambling to make up our loses and it won’t happen this year, or even next. To be frank, may not happen until we get a new AD andor president

Archie Larsen replied to the topic NIL and university employment in the forum Football 2 weeks, 6 days ago

Love this take. I’ve said it for the past several years. Why are we paying these athletes and giving them so much attention. I wish the big donors at all the schools would get together and start donating to sciences, math, medicine, etc…
We all get excited about some kid signingor sad when they transfer away. It all becomes irrelevant when…[Read more]

Davis is gonna be a great mentor to the younger receivers in the program. He’s a depth guy but a pseudo WR Coach

So… The New Mexification of Utah continues. We’re quickly becoming a lower tier G5 team.

Well, we all know what goes around is all around.

Anfernee started the topic Only-U Kenobi in the forum Football 2 weeks, 6 days ago

Well this has been an eventful last month and especially eventful day with Keanu announcing he’s bouncing. What’s the vibe on the hill? I feel like there’s a lot of momentum with the offense. I always trust a Scalley defense but you can only take so many vultures coming and taking your guys without it having a big effect. This NIL and portal shit…[Read more]

10-4…the somewhat ok news is that you still have guys in the program that graded as high as he did, or pretty close.

Ute Dub replied to the topic Conjecture: Why the Utah coaches may have been willing to let Tanuvasa go… in the forum Football 2 weeks, 6 days ago

No. Tafuna Greaduating, Tanuvasa in Portal, Vimahi coming back, Vakalahi coming back.
