  I don’t know that the positive outweighs the negative on this one.
  
  Erickson has been extremely helpful in getting the players UTAH needs to move to the next level.
  
  OTOH, A-Rod is a real weakness.

    I like ARod, as a receiver’s coach. Probably time to cut the cord with him. Definitely wish Erickson was sticking around one more year to help with the transition of a new OC. And, I hope ARod doesn’t end up at BYU. He could hurt us in recruiting there.

      I’d say either byu, Oregon State, or Weber State. He already had built in relationships.

        byu seems unlikely, at least as OC, they have the golden boy in that position.

      DemosthenesRed, he was terrible as a receivers coach and didn’t coach them this year, Holliday did. I don’t see his leaving having any effect on recruiting at all.

        Except Arod was the lead recruiter of Tuttle 4* 2017 QB commit

  Not sad about Arod, but losing Erickson is really gonna hurt. He’s been an unsung hero on this staff in a lot of ways.

  It’s a Whittingham tradition. At this point, Ute fans should set aside a day every January, kind of like on Signing Day, to talk about the incoming Offensive staff.
