I think that’s a very naive way to look at it. Jaylon Johnson should have been a layup for USC. Utah is known as a hotbed for top Poly talent and the nation knows it….why would your kid only look at Utah if he was a top prospect nationally? Your line of thinking would suggest that kids don’t want to spread their wings and get out into the world. Utah just pulled in 5 of the top 6 Utah recruits for 2020, and your butthurt about a kid who is following Noah Sewell and Penei Sewell to Oregon. Utah and every other school got massively outworked by Oregon for these 3 kids, massively. But Utah also massively outworked every other school for Jay Tufele and the kid got wooed by USC at the last second. So you can’t always put in tons of work on one kid and forget the other kids. Kingsley is a by product of Mario Crystobal’s work on Noah Sewell. It went their way on this round.

Without a more detailed breakdown of the schedule, 7-5 is the floor, anything less would be a disappointment. 9-3 is the ceiling, anything more would be amazing. 

We will look like udub this year – losing our best players and rebuilding an entire defense. We usually reload, but have never had this much talent turnover all at once. 

Our offense might be better than our D next year, which is crazy to think about. 

Less points mean closer games, which increases risk of losing. Younger guys could mean more wtf wames or lapses of judgement due to inexperience. 

I fully anticipate next year to be bumpy and I predict 8-4. We will be Iin the mix for the south but would be surprised if we bring it home with USCs returning talent. predicted 10-2 this year and was gladly incorrect. 

If we can build on this year’s recruiting class and get some dudes more experience, 2021 and beyond could have whitt riding off into the sunset.

A lot of UW fans thought they’d be better this year after losing noodle arm, Gaskin, and multiple All-Americans on defense. Reality- they lost to Colorado and were 7-5…

It’s going to be a rough season. Utah’s backups allowed TD’s to OSU, UA, and Col that were held to a combined 7 pts before they came in. 2021 this team should be competing for the South again, but next year is a rebuild.

I appreciate your optimism and I hope you are right.

The 2019 team is loaded and without a doubt the best defense in Ute football history.  We lose most of these guys.  We lose the best running back ever at Utah and a seasoned senior QB.  I would love to say that we are going to re-load and maybe we will.  I am just saying it will be difficult to be any better than 8-4 IMO.

On the bright side you mentioned a solid group of receivers, a more experienced offensive line.  RB and QB are the questions.  We may be okay at QB, but I doubt we will have anyone nearly as good as Huntley was this year.  RB could be okay in time, but you do not replace Moss that quickly.  Our defense will be totally different and lack game experience.  I think we have some good athletes that may in time be very good.  However, there is no way on earth that our defense will repeat what they did this year IMO.

I think it will be a rebuilding year where we will end up around 7-5 or 8-4.  We should be good enough to compete at a high level, but we won’t be loaded with All American type players like this year.   I hope for a great season as I always do, but I am looking at 2021 as our next possibility to win the conference.

We need to keep winning the South and have a yearly improvement in our recruit ratings. Our average rating in this class is 87 and Oklahoma’s is 90 / OSU is 91. BYU’s average player rating is 82. When we first joined the PAC 12 or average player rating was closer to 82. So the recruiting talent differential for us now is closer to Oklahoma and Ohio State than it is to BYU.

One of the issues is that we only have 20 scholarships allotments in this class because we have five return missionaries that won’t count. I think 247 needs to rcallibrate how they do class rankings and account for the missionaries in the year they return and sign to play versus the year they leave. Outside of that, it’s a numbers game. Using the 247 class calculator, if we were to sign the final three recruits we are going after we could likely end in the top 25. Or average star rank continues to get higher each year. Right now we are in the top 25 from average star ranking. Usually they say that on field success translates into recruiting success the following season. My understanding is we are already starting to line up some good prospects for 2021.

They, mostly likely, will be playin in different years. Bentley is 2020 and has only one year of eligibility. Powell would have been 2021 — unless he gets a waiver, which is unlikely.

To be fair, Rutgers just re-hired its ex-coach, Greg Schiano, who had a lot of success. Of course, who knows if Schiano will again help Rutgers reclaim its old glory days. That said, perhaps, with the new coaching staff there, Powell may see himself as the clear, potential #1 starter in 2021 — or 2020 if he gets a waiver.

You have to be 3 years removed from high school to be eligible for NFL draft. It’s why Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence is still in school. Sewell should be a high draft pick in the 2021 draft.
