chinngiskhaan replied to the topic A former UTE I'd love to have on the staff. in the forum Football 3 days ago
Yes, Gaige has been offered a scholarship, though he won’t be here for quite some time. He just finished up his freshman season, I believe. He is a QB. He took over the starting job midway through the season and led the team to a deep playoff run. He had around 1500 yards of total offense, and around 20 TDs. He also had over 70 tackles on defense.…[Read more]

2008 National Champ replied to the topic Rank the coaching changes in the forum Football 3 days ago
I’ll use the theory from my HS Biology teacher: Everyone starts with an A, whether they keep it or not depends entirely on their results.
To keep that A, I’d use the following statistical benchmarks:
RB coach – Top 2 rushers combine for an average of 1500 yards per season coached
WR coach – Top 2 receivers combine for an average of 1250 yards…[Read more] -

I really don’t think Harding as bad. Fano and Lomu are good. Togiai is solid. Center and RG were tough with Mokofisi and Kump, who need to be replaced if possible. It also sucks that our entire offense (players and coaches) was inept except for Singer, Bernard, and Kuithe. He hasn’t done anything to warrant being fired, but he should really try…[Read more]

I’ve also seen Wilson step right into a sack…
He definitely should not have played a single game last season.

Holladay Ute replied to the topic Honest question, who is Dampier going to throw to? in the forum Football 3 days, 6 hours ago
For us to contend for the B12 championship (and given a typical Utah team that has a good run game + defense), we probably need at least 2,400 passing yards (200 yards per game)?
It’d be rare for a freshman to provide any meaningful production / a consistent role on the offense. The only ones I can think of have been slot receivers (Covey,…[Read more]

UTE98 replied to the topic Most likely to remove name from Portal? in the forum Football 3 days, 9 hours ago
Ever wonder if you’re crazy? I did when I read about those wanting Wilson back and how he’d fit in Beck’s offense. Rose is a much bigger running threat than Wilson, I’d take Bottari running over Wilson. At this point I almost would take Cam over Wilson, and the door is slammed shut with Cam for me.
Cautiously optimistic Whitt will be more open to…[Read more]

“Trevor Reilly, who resigned from his position under Colorado head coach Deion Sanders on Aug. 1, explained to Jill Painter Lopez and A.J. Perez of Front Office Sports that he took a trip to Jordan, Dubai and Saudi Arabia seeking NIL money for Colorado players.”
That’s some out of the box thinking. I’d love to have Trevor Reilly thinking along…[Read more]

Beck: A- Not our first choice, but he might end up being our best choice. Sounds like he will be bringing a dynamic offense with him, and the best part is that he is being allowed to bring in some of his own guys to help coach it.

I don’t think Harding is a poor coach. But, I do think that our offensive line has not been top-tier like we need to be to compete at this level. Just my uneducated opinion. I admit that I am limited in what I know about the Oline and their specific assignments.
Yes, Fano is getting a lot of positive pub right now. That’s a great thing!

There’s a profit sharing agreement with the players on the horizon. Preparation for that is one of the main reasons why Oklahoma State forced Gundy to restructure his contract.

As for me – I give it a grade of B. I kind of like Beck, but he was our third choice. I think Atuaia is a good get with some solid experience. Micah Simon may end up being good, but he lacks big-time experience. This is position group that needs help.
I would have changed the Oline coach. It seems like Harding has something on Whitt. I…[Read more]

That dude is the (2nd) worst coach we’ve ever had to play against on a regular basis. The constant on field bitching and belittling of his players. Easy coach to root against.

Whitt himself said that the top 25 ranked teams will increasingly look like the top 25 NIL teams.
That said, I do think there’s a balance. We’ve seen a lot of bad teams w/ a ton of talent. NIL will be the #1 factor, but coaching, development (helping players prepare for the NFL), culture, etc. are still important too.
I agree w/ what you said.…[Read more]
