I was always planning on getting my education at BYU. After I got home from my mission, I went down to BYU to apply for the next semester, but I missed the deadline. I didn’t want to wait to attend school, so I decided to attend Weber State for a few years – I hadn’t missed their deadline – did so and got my Associates degree.
I was still planning on finishing up at BYU after Weber, but when I got married, my wife had a job in SLC and didn’t want to quit to move to Provo. I was planning on trying to talk her into moving to Provo and just finding a job down there – well, I knew that was not a good idea to win her over, so I casually, somewhat hesitantly decided to enroll at the U of U so my wife could keep her job. Anyway, I was majoring in Computer Science, and lo and behold, I found out the U of U had a superior CS program anyway, (one of the best in the nation in the early 90s), so I found a reason to be happy with my choice. Anyway, after attending my first quarter at the U of U, I switched loyalties pretty quickly.
Aaaaaaaand USC fires senior associate athletic director and water polo coach. Sacrificial lambs.
I did some more research.
A few biggies I remember:
1. Must have a Utah DL for at least a year.
2. Must register to vote in Utah, or file a form stating they don’t wish to register. Might have to be for a year as well.
3. Need to have proof of a job in Utah, meaning W-2s. And yes for the year period.
4. Cannot leave the state for more than 29 days total during the entire year while establishing residency.
5. Cannot be claimed as a dependent on your taxes for that year while establishing residency. (Not a big deal since the tuition difference alone will compensate for the loss of tax deduction).
6. You have to establish residency (the entire year) about three or four months before the semester you are applying for in state tuition, i.e. Feb 1 is the deadline for Summer and I believe May 1 is the deadline for fall. So really you’ve got to plan ahead.
We’re thinking of sending her off the end of May this year, have her attend UVU for a year, then stay in Utah until the end of June/July next year. That way she’ll pay out of state tuition at UVU which is about the same as in state tuition at the U. Then she can transfer to the U. I’m encouraging her to do an associates at UVU then transfer. She said she’d have to find someone at the U in the Muss to buy her tickets for the football season.
Now with all that said, who knows how that goes down if she goes on a mission. I don’t think that would put her at square one if she has already established Utah residency. But I’ll have to check.
I agree this would just turn college football into a minor league system where players would go wherever they’re paid the most. Not a good idea. The charm of college football is that it’s associated with universities. Going to football games is part of the campus experience.
Once you start paying players, it begs the question: what is the point of even maintaining a university affiliation? Huge slippery slope, IMO.
Not sure how many of you enjoy Phish and their associated bands. I find a unique pleasure in their music, and my connection to the band is entwined with my love of all things Utah.
Just wanted to share https://jempradio.com/, a station from Coastal Maine streaming 24/7.
I particularly enjoy a show called The Other Mike’s Corner, a broadcast of recent and archival shows hosted by Mike Dow live at 12p MT every Wednesday, but replayed quite often throughout the week, includes a healthy bit of history learnin’ in each show. Here’s an article by Mr. Dow about the station’s history.
Give them a listen, kiddos, and have a great day.
You’re ignoring the point. The point is that recruiting rankings would not have predicted the results. And that Utah was very much in the running for a championship. Utah was very much in that game; they didn’t win, but they were hardly outclassed or out of UW’s league (metaphorically). Again, recruiting results would not have predicted that. Thus, recruiting rankings have strong correlation with results, but are not determinative. Thus, more important to look at the trajectory of the team and less important to worry too much about recruiting rankings. Don’t get me wrong, it is great/vital to have strong recruiting, but it is an inexact science. I definitely want better recruiting, same as you.
Realistically, I think Utah’s goal should be a top 25 recruiting school, but that may never happen; Utah may always be a top 35 recruiting school that has to coach the players up. Some would say that I don’t dream big enough and that if we had a different coach, we could pull in top 10 recruiting classes – to that, I say, sure, maybe. But I think the odds are that Utah will never have that type of coach or pull, ever. The type of coach that can make Utah a top 10 recruiting school is not the type of coach that would stick in Utah – the first year Utah pulled off that type of recruiting class, the coach would be hired away by a school with more money and prestige. I might be wrong, but I think history provides a good indication that I am not. And we should not forget the downside risks associated with drastic changes. We may be unhappy with things now, but they can get a lot worse than winning the division and being very competitive in the championship game.
Ew, no.
Dude is a scumbag that I would never want associated with Utah football.
I think the Mormon culture that Utah has is a positive to more people than we think it is. People associate The Church with a strong family culture and good values. That is attractive to a lot of these parents who send their young adult sons to live in another state. Sitting by a certain players mom at the ASU game, this was one of the largest reasons she supported her kid coming here, and she said some of the other parents she affiliates with have similar opinions.
JD’s mom could have strong feelings against it, but I think we are speculating too much.
Arizona State is an attractive program to someone coming out of highschool. JD sounded way excited reporting on his official visit to ASU, he gave ASU more praise then he did to Utah’s “different vibe.”
The church works for us and against us, not everyone will see it as something that creates a good enviroment.
I don’t need her to say “mormons suck,” but I imagine we do not have the whole story.
