Mongolian Mike had many open shots, 3 point and closer in, and missed most of them. Don’t quite understand after seeing his shooting motion and makes in previous games. Hope he gets it going.

The Utes need multiple outside scorers to loosen up the defense on G Madsen. Ausar is a real nice inside threat, but needs to get his percentage up on…[Read more]

Thanks Tony. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. And, Go Utes!!

I like lovering for rim protection and rebounding. Hope he provides a little more inside scoring, so the team can be balanced and score from outside and inside 10 feet.

How does a guy like Keller that has probably played basketball since jr high, not have a better shooting motion? Does a player his size always dunk the ball and never cares…[Read more]

He is making about 1M per year for first three years. Hope he does well enough to get paid when he signs a new contract.

Yes, I was looking forward to watching him show what he could do as a Receiver, and then he got injured.
Hope he gets another chance.

Say it isn’t so. I have had been disgusted with the way we have been losing and I don’t know if I can get used to the new recruiting and transfer situation where money is involved.

The days of recruiting and developing players has changed completely. If you have enough NIL backing you can transfer and recruit in the talent and have a contender…[Read more]

Everyone has good points. Yes, I think Fano was in for Fillinger, so there is that difference. But I thought we were getting good play from T Johnson, and Ritchie. Although I didn’t see Ritchie in on plays last night.

It seems like the players have adequate physical capability on defense, but sometimes make some dumb mental errors, that…[Read more]

The prelim fight is something else! Thanks for reminding me, completely forgot about the fight.

His Dad played DB at Utah and was a very good player. I think if they had started early and kept after him, they would have had a great chance at landing him. No long trips, he was just up the road in Kaysville.

Just another example of less than stellar recruiting of the QB position.

I think the Defense is still solid, if they get a little help from the Offense in at least possessing the ball for a time and scoring a little more than recently.

The only chance for this is going to be dependent on Rose being better with more reps now, and possibly knowing he is the starter and getting practiced up for it. The receivers have to…[Read more]

Yes, NIL is a major part of it, but this is what I think today’s head coaches should become expert in. Arranging, seeking out, helping however they legally can to get the players NIL money. We may not like it, but for now NIL is the name of the game.

Utah Utes have no shortage of supporters with very deep pockets. Before NIL they were called…[Read more]

Good to know who she is. I noticed her also. She must really be a fan, because I doubt her job description includes supporting the team by being on the sideline right by coach Whit!

Maybe she can offer some advice for handling the QB situation going forward?

Looks like Smith is building a 3 point shooting team, which when hitting on all cylinders can win some games. Only problem, after the two Madsen brothers and maybe Mike S., there is no reliable outside shooter. Coach has his son on the team, and the only reason I can think of is he is a great shooter (Don’t know).

I had hopes for Erickson, and…[Read more]

Thanks. I’ll look for the message.

Tony, this probably says a lot about me, but is there an address, post office box, that I can send an old fashioned check to you?
