The athletic department had a moment of silence for him before the start of Saturday’s basketball game. My condolences to his family.

Yeah Rick, it’s all related to the profit sharing case that the athletes won recently. Eventually, the athletes are going to receive a percentage of the gross profits that any sport makes. That money has to come from somewhere, and the likeliest place is the massive salaries that football coaches currently have. It’ll be interesting to see what…[Read more]

All I’m going to say is that Nate Johnson is a dangerous player with the ball in his hands in an open field. He has the innate ability to anticipate tackles and make defenders miss. If he wants to ever see the field again, he needs to leave Vanderbilt and come back to Utah as an athlete. Last I checked, Vandy had like 6-7 QBs on its roster and…[Read more]

I seem to remember wishing he would become a slot receiver / WR.

Nate is hella fast for sure. It would be interesting if he returned. Didn’t he kind of burn some bridges? Or was that mainly with Ludwig?

My understanding is what Gundy and Norvell did is not funding NIL but rather the schools fund once athlete’s become employees of the university. The money from the coaches goes to that fund to help pay players, facilities, etc.

Whitt should get on board with this.

Maybe KW can go the Gundy and Norvell route agreeing to restructure his big contract to help support the football program. He’s all about doing what’s best for the team…right?

Yeah, I heard the same thing. I hope Atuaia can get him here in SLC. This is a position where we really need some help. I believe he is the highest ranked RB in the portal right now.

I hope he decides to return as a WR. It would be nice to have an emergency QB with the number of QB injuries we have had lately.

I assume his skill set is better suited to Beck’s offense than Ludwig’s, so maybe he could be back up qb if needed.

He did say he is open to playing WR. I would imagine if he came back to Utah they would take a look at him as a backup QB, but he would probably see the field as a WR this year assuming Dampier doesn’t get injured.

Per Steve Bartle not necessarily a qb.

Sounds like he could be an emergency qb but they’d like him more as an athlete

Do you think we’d pick him up as a QB again or have him as a WR like what we’ve said before he left to the portal?

I think people will be surprised how good our OL looks when we have a QB that will actually throw the ball…

Still need the WSU or NM back. I would take either one of them.

Mikey likes it! Feed me! I love the idea of a stron duo of backs, a bruiser blocking strong back and a fast shifty agile back.

I went to school with Cleadus, I’m a few years younger. He was good friends with a few of my cousins and friends.
Whenever I’d see him around or at games he’d say hello. Friendliest, kindest guy ever. I’m so sad for his young family and wife. He was Utah to the core. He will be truly missed!

Thanks MFury. Thoughts and prayers to the Woodbury family.

Team has had trouble playing 40 quality minutes. We let 2-9 Eastern Washington hang around far too long (had a dominant start getting up 16 before letting them back to within a basket or two, then a final push in the closing minutes put the Eagles away), and not showing up until after halftime cost us against the Gaels. After what should be a…[Read more]
