The Miami Ute replied to the topic Money, it’s a gas in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
I think that it’ll fail and eventually get back to some formula that makes sense. If you’re dealing with students cum athletes, it makes no sense at all to have a bicoastal conference.

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Money, it’s a gas in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
I’ll refer to a comment I’ve mentioned several times on this website across the years… college football is regional, while professional football is national.
Yes, all of this is about money but the real big money only flows in if people pay subscriptions and tune in to watch the games.
Does anyone really think that the vast majority of…[Read more]

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Breaking: SLC officially named host city of 2034 Olympics! in the forum Misc 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should. You’re absolutely right that Salt Lake City is no longer a secret, so what’s the point of hosting the Olympics? To me it pure overkill at this point. Even without the Olympics, tons of tourists will still come and tons of people will continue to move to Utah. It’s not like February is a…[Read more]

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Breaking: SLC officially named host city of 2034 Olympics! in the forum Misc 5 months, 3 weeks ago
The Olympics does nothing for me and I’m not really sure what it does for the SLC area. When it’s all said and done, I highly doubt that the event will leave the city and state in the black. Yeah, I’m sure that someone will make money off the deal but I’m also sure that this will be another example of socializing the costs and privatizing the…[Read more]

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Glad we didn’t waste NIL on Cormani McClain in the forum Football 6 months, 1 week ago
Even an all time great like Allen Iverson got bitch slapped about being late to practice. I’m not sure what imaginary world McClain lives in where he thinks he’s above the fray. He really needs to start getting his head in the game or his next destination is Last Chance U.

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Breaking: Utah vs Miami @ Allegiant to open 2027 season in the forum Football 6 months, 1 week ago
Why? So that I can look like a circus clown? No thanks…I’m not even going to worry about it now…If the game even takes place, I’ll go as a neutral or might not even go at all…in fact, I’ll probably ignore the game completely. I just can’t fathom rooting against either team.

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Breaking: Utah vs Miami @ Allegiant to open 2027 season in the forum Football 6 months, 1 week ago
It’s tougher for me since I grew up biking distance from the school and actually went there. Maybe the game will get cancelled and I won’t have to worry about it. Never thought it would happen… it’s like watching your two kids play against each other.

God damnit….why the fuck does this have to happen? This is utter and absolute bullshit.

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Okie St star RB Ollie Gordon arrested for DUI in the forum Football 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Are gassers, or any other sort of physical punishment, still a thing? Seems like with the number of players that have died while training over the years, social media, the advent of BLM, etc…it would be a risky approach.

If this list is accurate, then there’s no more starker evidence of the massive financial doping conditions that Oregon operates under.

Immaturity and bad luck, a lethal combination…the fact that you’re a great football player just means that you’re a great football player.

Give his actual opinion instead of drinking the corporate Kool-Aid?

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Jerome Myles just decommitted from Ole Miss. in the forum Football 6 months, 3 weeks ago
I don’t share similar sentiments about Scalley for a few reasons. One, he’s a hometown guy and this is his dream job. There’s also no doubt in my mind that, if he wanted to, he could have left many years ago for greener pastures. Because he’s an alumnus AND a hometown guy AND has been passing up jobs out of loyalty and commitment to the school,…[Read more]

I formally predict on this website that Michigan will soon return to being the dumpster fire it was before Jim Harbaugh was hired. They made the same mistake that Washington made when Chris Petersen retired…hiring an assistant with zero HC experience to manage a Top 15 college football program.

Oh, so now there’s “good capitalism” and “bad capitalism”? I’m glad you were able to explain youself seeing as your original comment just mentioned capitalism writ-large. You know, the economic system that the entire developed world follows. Maybe you should elaborate better in your comments to pre-empt misunderstandings. Don’t be a a…[Read more]

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Formal split between P4 and rest of D1 made official in the forum Football 6 months, 3 weeks ago
This is such a dumb take, inserting a political comment into a subject that has absolutely zero to do with the economic well-being of anyone on this site. In case you don’t get it, all sports are in entertainment, not the bellwether of industrial development in this or any country. And if you have an issue with capitalism, feel free to hop on an…[Read more]

I’ve been a Panthers’ fan since they were playing at the old Miami Arena near Brickell and follow their games religiously on TV. I have to think that the Cats will win and the biggest reason in because they’re playing at home. Yes, the Oil won Game 5 at Sunrise but they were thoroughly outplayed and even the most diehard Oil loyalist will tell…[Read more]

Oregon is what I like to call an “artificial power.” Do you follow European soccer? Well, Oregon is the equivalent of teams like Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain, who were essentially nobodies until they were bought by Abu Dhabi and Qatar respectively and started receiving massive infusions of cash that had nothing in relation with how…[Read more]

I’m not as confident as you are that Utah will be included in a so-called “Super League.” For one thing, RES and its lack of capacity is a liability. As it stands, it’s only bigger, and not by much, than five B1G stadiums, all of those belonging to teams in the lower rungs of the conference. For example, Iowa, a team that a lot of people…[Read more]
