So I don’t live in Utah, but if they got a team I’d definitely adopt them as my NHL team. But I’m more stoked for MLB I’m Utah, that’d be awesome. If SLC gets an MLB team, I’d definitely drive down from Boise once or twice a season to catch weekend games.

Maybe a tad high? He’s definitely top-10, but I’d have him between 5-10. Regardless, we are dang lucky to have him and I scoff and mock anyone who thinks we ought to move on from him, which is usually a solid handful of people per season. Is he perfect, certainly not. There are lots of things that get irritating from handling the QB position last…[Read more]

They did, but only at home.

Remember, this is essentially asking which Big12 team has the best shot, not who is likely to even do it as I don’t think any B12 team will win ever with the way the game is moving.

Anyway, Utah definitely has the best shot or at least is a top-3 option. And despite what I said above, I do remind myself that in the 22-23 season, TCU made the…[Read more]

It’s still more than MBB has accomplished recently. Sure, it’s not the NCAA tourney, but still… we haven’t even made the NIT recently.

For our program and where it’s been the last 20 years, it’s definitely a positive. For all the frustration with the program and not making the tourney, each year under Smith the program has improved and this season is no exception. It demonstrates continued growth – even if we aren’t patient enough.

Now if we were a regular tourney team and fell…[Read more]

Meh, we’ll be fine. DEI is just rampant racism in practice and should be eradicated anyway.

There are a few fans here who do. I understand occasional criticism for a decision here or there or even their bowl performance, but there are legit people who think we should move on from Whitt and that Utah can find someone better.

I just don’t understand how they can be so terribly bad on the road. I get not being as good, but this big of a difference is horrendous.

So I doubt this is as significant as we Ute fans think it is and it’s certainly way more significant than BYU fans think it is, it’s somewhere in the middle. But what it does show is that Utah has great leadership and vision. They know what they want and where they want to be. From Pres. Randall, to Harlan, to Whitt and the strategists and support…[Read more]

Problem for them is geography. Those markets are all condensed and largely covered by Ohio State, Michigan, Tennessee, etc.

Michigan State is in danger purely because they’ll already have Michigan.

Nah, they’ll keep Maryland and Rutgers because of their markets. Same reason they’d probably include Virginia, NC, ASU, and Colorado.

But Illinois, Purdue and or Indiana, Michigan State, Mississippi State, South Carolina, Vandy, Northwestern (because ND provides Chicago), Kentucky, and maybe a couple more need to be really nervous.

I can’t imagine that a super league would include both Mississippi and Miss State, OU and Ok State, IU and Purdue. I think it would just be one of each. Also, it wouldn’t include Northwestern and Vandy. I know that many of those teams are already in the B1G and SEC, which is why I think most likely the final endgame is the valuable schools from…[Read more]

What Madoff was doing = illegal

What big-12 is doing = not illegal

How is that cheating?

I think this is great. The tweak I would make to this is that for the P4 conferences, it is 3 or 2 autobids respectively so long as the teams are ranked in the top 16. Like one year #24 Virginia made it in while #13 Bama didn’t. Bama should be in in that case.

Top G6 should always be in no matter where ranked.

To be fair though, College Football Head Coach has to be one of the worst jobs in America right now – it’s only saving grace is the money. I bet every one of the 133 FBS head coaches would rather be an NFL head coach. NFL head coach is immensely less work and stress and less complicated. Unfortunately there are only 32 jobs available.

Actually, they are too. This is the first season they’ve sniffed the tourney in a long time. Is it incredible improvement? No. But it is better than last season, and last season was better than the season before.

Hopefully the transfer portal giveth this offseason
