Is Carsen Ryan hurt, or not showing out enough to be listed. I have high hopes for him.

[NorthernUte]

Assuming Cam has roughly 3,300 yards, which is my guess on his total.
#1- Dorian Singer w/ 1,000
#2- Money Parks w/ 600
#3- Micah Bernard w/ 400 (Cam is going to be throwing to our RB’s way more frequently then usual.)
#4- Mycah Pittman w/ 400
#5- Landen King w/ 300
#6- Carsen Ryan w/ 200
#7- Brant Kuithe w/ 200 (Just have a feeling he’s only going to make it through a few games, trying not to get too excited about him this year unfortunately.)

Thanks for posting creative stuff like this, I love to be able to take a break out of the day to put our predictions and do a bit of day dreaming!

My 2 intriguing prospects:
Spencer Clegg – Was a big in-state get out of American Fork HS, who has returned from a 2-year church mission. Likely won’t play much this season, but could be a big impact player as early as next year.
CJ Jacobsen – Comes from GREAT pedigree, as his Dad was a GREAT safety for the Utes. Was a high 3-star recruit who is very athletic. Also don’t anticipate him getting much, if any PT this year, simply due to the depth and talent ahead of him, but he should be a very good player as early as 2025.
That’s some crazy good depth AND talent at those two key positions. Have we EVER had this much talent and depth at TE and WR? I do not think so and really hope it pans out this year. VERY good chance it does, with a 7th year Sr. QB who can sling it getting them the ball.
Next position I will highlight will be the D-Line.
Go Utes!

This is a non-issue. Behind Kuithe is Carsen Ryan a 4* 90, Landen King 3* 89 and CJ Jacobsen 3* 88.

We’ll be fine at TE this season and in the future.

[Anfernee]

Cam Rising (and depth behind him)

Micah Bernard/Mike Mitchell/Jaylon Glover

Dorian Singer/Money Parks/Damien Alford/Mycah Pittman/Taeshaun Lyons/Munir McClain

Brant Kuithe/Landen King/Carsen Ryan

[22Ute22]

Keep in mind one very important thing though. The majority of the big we teams run a lot of 5 DB sets, whether it be the 3-3-5 or the less common 4-2-5. This is to limit the passing game and I’m pretty sure was a response to Lincoln Riley’s OU teams. Utah’s coaches already know this and are preparing, I’m sure. I don’t expect to see a lot of 4 or 5 WR sets tbh. However, the 3-3-5 allows for an easier time running the ball, which actually works against us without a proven RB1. I’m not a football coach by any means so maybe what I’m saying will be completely wrong, but I feel like we will see a lot of RPO and TE play. I think Carsen Ryan and Kuithe will be much more important than King and Bentley.

The only way the Utes make the CFP is if Cam Rising takes us there. So…

MVP – Cam Rising
Offensive PoY – Dorian Singer
Offensive Breakout Performer – either Landen King or Carsen Ryan
Defensive PoY – Lander Barton (it’s Barton’s defense now IMO)
Defensive Breakout Performer – Connor O’Toole or Kenan Johnson
Offensive Position Group of the Year – O-Line
Defensive Position Group of the Year – D-Line

Yes, all reports point to Cam Rising being back and 100% healthy. Utah fans are definitely excited and optimistic for this coming year given Cam’s coming back along with Brant Kuithe (our TE who sat out all last year to injury as well).

Coach Whitt has gone on record about 5 years ago saying that he wouldn’t coach beyond being 65 years old. And since he’s turning 65 this year, everyone is bracing for what might be his last year. He’s since changed his statement to saying he’s on a year-to-year basis right now and as long as he’s passionate and motivated, he’ll continue coaching. But we know the end is near. All that said, the donors have been going above and beyond to support the program and surround Whitt with arguably the best roster in the program’s history. The WR room has been upgraded considerably with guys like Dorian Singer, Damien Alford, and Mycah Pittman to go along with proven guys who have been in the program several years. The secondary has also been bolstered considerably with DBs Keenan Johnson and Cameron Calhoun, Safety Alaka’i Gilman etc. And then they’ve brought in more talent to our already solid TE room with Carsen Ryan coming over from UCLA to complement Kuithe and Landen King.

Utah has a young, somewhat inexperienced, but talented OL that fans are cautiously optimistic about. Our OL will really determine if our offense gets back to the 2021/2022 production levels. Because Utah prides itself on establishing the run game to setup the play-action passing attack. We’re all crossing our fingers that the OL takes a step forward this year with our 2 sophomore OTs having a year under their belts with strength training, experience etc.

Defensively, Utah is always solid, even when we reload in areas. The DL is expected to be really good and deep. We’ve got really good returning production and depth at both DE and at LB. I wouldn’t say that the Secondary is an area of concern but if I had to point to the defensive group that will determine just how good this year’s defense will be, I’d say it’s the Secondary. And that’s because we’re replacing our 2 Safeties that got drafted in the 3rd and 4th rounds. However, the guys behind them have experience and have been really good as well. So I think the feeling is we will reload there like we’ve grown accustomed to.

Whether it’s fair or not, the expectation for this year’s team is CFP or bust. This is not meant as disrespect to the B12 in anyway whatsoever. It’s seen this way because it’s the best roster Utah has ever had, with our best QB in program history coming back for his…7th year (haha, that’s crazy to even type!), and with our legendary Head Coach who is winding down his career. It is feeling like it’s now or never for Utah to finally break through. So we’ll all be super disappointed/devastated if it doesn’t happen…but that’s what I believe the general feeling is amongst fans. That said, Utah fans have grown accustomed to being the “underdog” “small market program” trying to take down the giants such as USC, Oregon, and Washington. And I’m sure OSU fans can relate since we both seem like similar programs in many respects. I only say that because there is a large portion of Utah’s fanbase that isn’t at all comfortable with being called out as “front runners” to win the league this year. Utah fans would much prefer to sneak up on teams and surprise everyone. But I think Utah fans are beginning to come around to the idea that we want to continue to evolve as a program and take the next step and this would involve Utah being one of the programs that everyone else is gunning for. So we’ll see what happens…again very excited, lots of optimism, and the season simply can’t get here soon enough!

The last two national champions (Georgia and Michigan) had 10 and 13 NFL draft picks the following spring. Unsurprisingly, the number of draft picks a team gets the following spring is a pretty good indicator of how well the team performed the season before.

Now do I think Utah is going to win the whole thing this upcoming season?

Maybe. But actually, no. But I can dream.

If we did however, it is because at least 10 of the following players had unbelievable years and got drafted:

Money Parks, Dorian Singer, Mycah Pittman, Tanoa Togiai, Johnny Maea, Jaren Kump, Michael Mokofisi, Brant Kuithe, Landon King, Carsen Ryan, Cameron Rising, Micah Bernard, Van Fillinger, Junior Tafuna, Keanu Tanuvasa, Connor O’Toole, Karene Reid, Lander Barton, Sione Fotu, Kenan Johnson, Nate Ritchie, Tao Johnson and Zemaiah Vaughn.

Looking at that list of 23 guys, I don’t think it is likely we would get to 10. But there also isn’t a single guy on that list (maybe outside of a few of the OL) that would surprise me if they were drafted. And keep in mind, of Michigan’s guys that were drafted this year, only 1 was taken in the first round.

If it was me wanting to “sun himself” , I would prefer doing it in Santa Monica over Park City.

But that is my preference.
