With ASU and Scattebo going against a bad run defense (I think ISU is 14th in conference against the run) this game is going about how I would expect it.

Well, this is the pro football argument. Since time immemorial, NFL champs have been crowned without playing every team in the league. The sport is just too brutal to have so many games in a season.

Note for Tony. I keep getting “anti-spam” errors when trying to post X links.

I think Oklahoma State is comfortable doing that with Gundy because they’ve got a “cause for fire” option up their sleeve. Utah doesn’t have that option.

Coach McBride was on with Hans and is still connected with the program. He said Harding and Whittingham were untouchable as far as recruiting and being great position coaches. I focused in on the receivers several games to see if they were getting open. Part of the reason Wilson held the ball so long is nobody had separation. The DBs were allowed…[Read more]

Casual watching interest for BSU, ASU, UO, SMU and Texas. BSU is a crazy story in the new B12 format. The Boise HC Daniels was hired mid-December last year after Andy Avalos was fired mid-season 2023 with a 17-5 conference record, 22-14 overall. Daniels has arguably the top Heisman candidate in Jeanty and a bye going into the CFP play-off…[Read more]

Only nice thing I can say about him is sometimes he threw a nice deep ball. Missing a lot of easy/routine throws makes it impossible to call plays while he is in.

I think it is typical to bring in some guys familiar with what you do.

May I ask why you were on Utehub so early in the morning? Just curious.

I have heard some rumors but don’t wish to repeat them. They are different than those ones. I trust the source of mine. But it kind of confirms the difference when Rose, and Bottari come in and move the ball. Players look more energetic.

Wilson’s last game he was holding on wayyyy too long. Maybe he is that kind of QB. Makes like one bri…[Read more]

Wilson was good in high school because they had the best talent by far in the state. His mechanics are not good. Just watch his feet. That’s one thing that he has to fix. He also needs a growth spurt so he can actually see over FBS lineman.

I was a BIG Wilson defender. However, if the rumors are true about locker room issues and parents having shouting matches with Whit…then gtfo. I just want a dynamic offense. I’d love for Dampier to transfer in with another QB. Wilson redshirts. Dampier at 1, Rose and or another transfer QB at 2 & 3. I’m also really intrigued with Ficklin.

I’m at a 3/5. If Scalley was HC it’d be a 4/5. I really like Beck’s offenses but I’m worried that Whit won’t let Beck be Beck.

I don’t know what people Beck has. With Bronco also leaving UNM, which of those guys will follow him. Here are the UNM offensive assistants. Are any better then the guys we have. Certainly less experience.

I’m fine if he stays, but don’t think he should get special treatment. He has talent in certain areas and lack it in others. I think his athleticism is overrated. At times he throws a good deep pass but struggles with shorter routes. I wonder if he does the film study to lean how to deal with the blitz. A lot he made of his age, but it seems he…[Read more]

I’m really neutral on him staying or leaving. I think the some of the problems with the offense this season was the decision to make him QB2. I don’t think that was consistent with what much of the locker room believed. I don’t know if Rose has more ultimate upside than Wilson, but I believe he was more ready to be QB2 this season than Wilson.

From some of social media and sport boards confirms your post. Rumor has it Whitt had a few heated exchanges with Wilson’s parents, but didn’t say what it was about or elaborated. I also read somewhere he’s receiving NIL and believe part of the reason for his commitment to Utah (and not all because he’s 100% Ute in his heart) and why he’s #2 QB…[Read more]

I agree, Isaac was one of the top high school QBs in the country. I think he has talent but wasn’t ready to carry an offense with as many flaws as Utah’s offense. The biggest flaw of all was the uninspired play calling.
I hope he stays because I think he may become an excellent QB if he is given a chance to mature. I’d hate to see us miss out on…[Read more]

It will boil down to which position coach has the most talent and if they can get the players to stay. Our obvious weakness was QB and RB with WR not to far behind. Beck takes care of QBs. RB room a disaster so Ganther is on the hot seat. Keeping Williams is a big deal. If he goes WR coach should be gone too. Whittingham and Harding should stay.

He had some bad punts as well. He had a good average though. Special teams was just poorly coached this season. Finding a punter won’t be hard.
