I kinda view the mountain states as one big related geography, even though there are sub regions within. Usually when im chatting with my Euro colleagues, I say the mountain states in the western US or something.

If i were to move there, I’d aim for the Paradise Valley area, not sure i could afford it yet, but I love it. It is alone of the rich rich area.

Will be interesting to see what happens with Retzlaff. If he doesn’t play for BYU, they could end up having what happened to us last season.

You’re doing God’s work Tony.

I wonder if there is like an AI based tool or solution or something that can auto do this, like some open source thing on Github?

I’m not sure it will crash and burn but it will look very different.

The most likely outcome, IMO, is that a new governing body for the top level of CFB and that the players will be able to collectively bargain. Once this happens everything will be reigned in. Contacts will be enforceable, transfer rules set, payment models established, etc. And restrictions will be enforceable because the players will have agreed to them. At that point it will essentially be a professional sport.

What I think will be interesting to see are two things:

1. What happens to non profit making our even non revenue generating sports? My guess is that football and basketball become their own separate entities.

2. How does this effect FCS, D2, D3, and NAIA? Do these stay as cfb had always been? Where the players are just getting scholarships but they can also go out and get sponsorship /NIL deals?

Keeping things private isn’t necessarily sweeping it under the rug. The HC office isn’t going to fo aire the dirty laundry of everyone who violated the code but didn’t commit any crime.

In JR’S case, because there’s a legal filing of course its public.

I don’t understand why you’d be shocked, BYU his far more orthodox than they used to be and they uphold the honor code. A decade ago their BBall player got kicked out of school because of honor code violations. Ive seen nothing that suggests BYU would sweep it under the rug with the way the school has been run.

Had this been in the 1980’s, then sure.

I’ll simply take the QB being healthy for 10 games.

[AlohaUte]

Wouldn’t be surprised, but to be fair, some of our fans on X do a plenty good job of doing that without BYU’s interference.

I was going to suggest reporting to Twitter and getting that acct taken down for spoofing the site, but apparently Uteshub.com is a thing and has Utes related stuff. Looks like a site that may be auto generated with scripts, pulls and posts latest videos and auto updates rankings or something.
