Southern Utah makes sense provided he goes there after he’s graduated from Utah. I checked his record and. even though he’s labelled as a Junior, he’s been at Utah since 2020, leading me to believe he’s on track to graduate this Spring, if not sooner. Playing in Cedar City would be great for him if he wants to be closer to home.

The only thing I could say to that is that before, he could theoretically kick the can down the road. He could turn down USC or Tenn but at the same time leave the door cracked in case an interesting opportunity came along.
Given his age, that’s no longer the case. If A&M comes calling for him, it’s now or never. That alone, in my view, might…[Read more]

He’s not guaranteed a starting job at BYU either. My guess is if Barnes leaves it’ll be to a place where he’s guaranteed a starting job.

I get all that BUT does anyone on this site (besides Chingiskhan) really know how Whitt feels? I get the feeling that he’s a competitive animal and going to A&M would provide him every single resource known to man to win in the college football world. Hopefully Whitt doesn’t even consider it.

Yeap, right you are. Now Cal is bowl eligible and some of the luster has worn off UCLA.

So, Billy Liucci, the Executive Editor of TexAgs, who has covered Texas A&M sports since 1997 and is widely viewed as the leading and most connected insider in the A&M market, said late Friday that A&M’s targets for it’s HC position are Mike Elko (Duke HC), Mark Stoops (Kentucky HC), and Whitt. Should we be worried? At A&M, Whitt would have…[Read more]

Cooper Legas is the starter and he’s a senior. I’m not sure if he’s got any eligibility left.

I agree with you. I don’t see a reason for Barnes to leave unless he’s already gotten his degree from Utah and just wants to play. He’s not a P5 starter so whatever school he goes to will be a step down from Utah, both academically and from a facilities standpoint. He might even have to drop down to the FCS level to become a guaranteed starter.…[Read more]

That would be great if true. However, regardless of what I want, I have a hard time coming up with a logical reason as to how Elliss would turn down a projected low first round/high 2nd RD draft grade for the possibility of having a worse year or picking up an injury that affects his draft standing.

That strategy proved disastrous for Kuithe,…[Read more]

Only reason I’m watching it is for that exact reason. Still hard to believe that such a successful conference is closing shop.

It’s possible. I checked earlier in the week and Utah was at #27. We might be able to creep into the #25 slot. I’d feel better about that possibility if Utah had blown out Colorado.

… undoubtedly, he and Pittman have been massive busts albeit due to injuries.

Singer has been a massive bust for USC and his career prospects. The guy went from 1st Team All PAC 12 to the fourth or fifth option at USC. As my dad used to say, not all change is progress.

I’m still seeing most projections placing Utah versus Miami in the Sun Bowl. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.

Best play of the whole game. Where’s this Glover been his entire Utah career? Looked like he was channeling Ty Jordan at times.

You have to believe that Jonah Elliss is gone based on his current draft projection. Am I right? Right now PFF has him as the 40th best player in the 2024 NFL draft, though he might work himself into the 1st RD with a good workout and because he plays a premium position (Edge) in the NFL. Even if he was drafted as the 40th player, that’s a $12M…[Read more]
