This, Scalley did something stupid and ignorant. But what he did in now way warranted getting fired. And the U should be applauded for not caving to irrational, blood-thirsty activists.

Considering how often you claim to be educated and informed, your ignorance is huge here and it is so, so tiring.

The only explanation for this is that you haven’t actually read anything about what happened and are ignorant to the context. Either that or you are a completely irrational person incapable of considering nuance and accepting anything other than zero-sum.

What do you mean we don’t have context, we have tons of context:
* He used the word with Shah in a text.
* Sha, who is black, use the word N***a’s in a text to Scalley
* Scalley responded with something like, well, “I just landed that n***a.”
* Sha didn’t take offense and wasn’t offended.
* The text accidentally went to a recruit
* Scalley flew…[Read more]

Boy I’ve seen some bad takes in my day on UteHub, but this could be the worst. I wouldn’t be at all shocked if Whitt were gone in the next 5 years, but your marginalization of Whittingham and essentially saying his is mediocre and not really very good, is completely asinine and stupid.

As a serious answer, I definitely vote for Moose. It’s unique, they are local to Utah, and they are dangerous and awesome

I’m not sure I understand your rant. Colorado has a top-25 team who choked. Utah is straight abysmal and after, what, 8, 10 years as the head coach I and many of us expect the Utes to be a stable and highly competitive program. I don’t expect them to be Duke or Kentucky or anything of the sort, but I do expect stability. I expect a team that…[Read more]

Texas A&M? Tennessee? Tell me about it.

First you mean delude. We aren’t diluting anything.

Second, you do realize we can both be right. The loss wasn’t all on Huntley at all. It was on the O-Line getting lit up and the D-Line getting dominated. Football is won in the trenches. However, Huntley when scrambling was looking down and for running lanes as opposed to keeping his eyes…[Read more]

I’m just thrilled we were included on the list. The program Whitt is building is pretty cool.

Well, I wish Tyler Huntley were listed, but beyond that, that’s pretty impressive! It’s a shame how the season ended, but this was still an all time great Ute team and appreciate all of them.

Was this an expected signee? or did we flip him?

To be fair to Pace, this post was not him complaining and you complaining about him here really isn’t necessary.

Here’s the thing, considering how long he’s been at the U, he should have a better and more stable program than he has. Something isn’t working. I willing to give him next season to see if these recruiting classes gel. But if the Utes don’t make the tourney in 20-21 season, he needs to go.

Yup, this. I want us to stockpile great O-line like we do D-Line. Championships are won in the trenches. As evidenced by the Pac12 CG.

Hmmm, I would have liked to have seen that average increase a bit more over the years. I would especially expect a bit more a jump after the season we had this year. Hopefully if we can string together consistent contention for the Pac-12 Championship we will see those numbers increase.

No, no, we get your argument, we just think it’s stupid. If Utah is 98th in mid February then I’ll share your concern. But at this point your constant complaining about it reflects poorly on you especially in the middle of what Utah is doing now…with recruits that you clearly think aren’t worthy.

Well, I’d argue that Oregon, Clemson, and Michigan State were all not historical or national powers when they made it on the first time. In fact I’d throw Georgia and maybe Washington in there too. That being said, Utah would be the most out of left field.
