I guess it will be a reconstruction and not a lift job…

They really do need a more modern (smaller, like 9k for bball, but 15k at gymnastics is great) arena with more boxes and better experience. They are still considering options, but wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up as part of the downtown development. I hope it stays on campus, but not…[Read more]

34 in wrestling
11 in men’s golf
5 in men’s cross country
2 in men’s basketball (’45 & ’46)
1 baseball (runner-up 5x)
(55 total, 53 team NCAA titles – claim 2 non-NCAA titles in football and equestrian)
183 individual national titles

For Utah:
16 skiing (15 combined men/women)
10 gymnastics
3 claimed by basketball (’44) + NIT (’47) + AAU

The old adage ‘if you can’t do, coach’. His size probably limited him and buried on the depth chart led to fewer reps to get better. As a grad assistant, not like he’s a lead/position coach, but will be, well, assisting and learning. Could end up working up through college ranks over the years or go high school – but creating future options for…[Read more]

hmm, maybe like AD and now NIL type stuff? hmm

I don’t disagree for basketball (men’s or women’s), but what do you do about gymnastics pulling 15k into the stadium? I haven’t been around the campus in a while, but seems like there’s more non-sports events at Kingsbury than JHC (concerts, etc.). For graduations, a smaller arena is fine as only 1/2 of the JHC is used. I would assume they’d keep…[Read more]

Meh…players union and contracts coming.

Canceled last year. I don’t regret it.

Trump is freaking killing it. Uncovering all the waste, fraud, and abuse is exactly what we need. I was never Trump until they charged him and tried to kill him. I’m 100% all in. I want every cabinet member confirmed. I want all the grifters to be bankrupted. I want the corruption to be brought to light. They gave him 4 years to put together a…[Read more]

I think many of the voters are only paying attention to overall record and not the specifics and that’s why the Utes are stuck in ‘receiving votes’ purgatory.

Hopefully (if Utah finishes strong) the committee considers more details, including that all three Big12 losses you listed were when McQueen was out.

It’s surprising, given her overall play. Oddly, her FT% has dropped every year (75, 73, 67, 55).

I wondered at the time if her missing those two free throws against LSU her sophomore year would mess with her confidence. Maybe it did with the 5% drop, but the 12% drop this year is something else.

Currently, the Women’s teams is shooting 75.3% for the season.

Starters are shooting 78.9%, which is impressive, given that Jenna Johnson and Maye Toure have shot 55% and 63%, respectively.

You have good points but two of them probably would probably need to be addressed to Yomark as Harlan has limited control. I’m not either of those guys (thank goodness, but I would like the salary) but I’ll take a stab at their replies (does not necessarily mean endorsement).

1. @Laramie sucks but if you were in the PAC12 (RIP) ACC, or BIG 12,…[Read more]

Especially in a year with 5 Big 12 home games. I guess with home-and-home swaps, it just works out some years that we need to be away for 2 non-conference games. To have 7 home games, you generally have to be paying the other team or getting 2 patsies. But we generally have tried 1 patsy (Cal Poly), 1 G5 (Wyoming), 1 P4 (UCLA).

Team (worry 1-10, 10 being worried they blow us out)
@UCLA (6) – solid team, but it’s going to be more about if we get the offense clicking. we typically have slow starts and it is on the road to start the season. will be a REALLY good indicator of how the season will go
Cal Poly (1) – blowout, get the 2nd team in
@Wyo (2) – mostly worried about…[Read more]

We don’t leave the state of Utah in October. What are we? SEC lol

Wyoming is just 2 hours up the road from me, so thinking about it, but already have a conflict that I have to consider.

Might go to Baylor as my Senior is planning on moving to San Antonio to work and live with bio-family for a little bit and could be a good time to visit and see how things are going/move her back home lol.

Might drive to…[Read more]

There are only a few protected rivalries and Big 12 has always spread them out rather than put them all on rivalry weekend to try to get more viewership.

Utah White Outs (since Blizzard didn’t work to kind of match mountain hockey teams – Avalanche). Utah Squals. Utah Polar Vortex (or Vortices for plural). Utah Inversion Layer. Utah Raspberry Milkshakes. Utah Swag brought to you by Swig.

I’m guessing Mammoth wins out. Hopefully they have a secondary mascot Sid, chasing a nut.

I found Hockey Club less objectionable than the others until I saw the proposed logo.

I guess Mammoth is better than Outlaws. Both sound like minor league roller derby teams…
