Charlie replied to the topic Deivons waiver denied – the team is going to appeal. in the forum Basketball (Men) 9 months, 2 weeks ago
I am missing something, help me. It seems football players move freely, do basketball players have the same rules? Is Smith caught simply by a second move? Haven’t we seen football players make a second transfer? I wonder what the criteria is for a wavier that seems to come into play.

Charlie replied to the topic No there is 3 left in to 2025 QB room in the forum Football 9 months, 2 weeks ago
It would seem if you are in a program for 2 years and are not seeing the field in minutes of contested games, guys will reevaluate. There are great players in crowded rooms. There are guys that fall short of the requirement for the program. Some will be moving up, some will be moving down, each in pursue of more game minutes or greater challenges.…[Read more]

Will here you go. The Power 4 feel they can tear college sports athunder, however, that can’t happen from someone other than us. Actually, I agree with them.

We are already at the point that you need to recruit the athletes that will play over and over every year. Athletes that are in development will also have to be recruited every year once it becomes apparent development is going successful. Each year all will determine if there exist a path anywhere else than has advantages over the current path.…[Read more]

Charlie replied to the topic Smoke on Vaki… in the forum Football 9 months, 2 weeks ago
It is not laws that prevent a cap, it is done all the time in sports where their is understanding about why it is needed and most important it is agreed to by the administrators. Of course it may require something like making them employees. But the critical element is agreement at that administrative level. Given that agreement it would be easy…[Read more]

I agree, a NIL cap would work and is needed. However, the problem is with the programs with the most money are the ones you need for agreement. If the SEC and B1G did not support it it simply can’t happen. We may need stories about programs that spent more than they can sustain and didn’t get anything in return resulting in problems.

Charlie replied to the topic Harlan in the forum Football 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Not everyone is going to believe Utah was driving the decision process that day like we so often did. Let’s just go with someone in California thinks something that happened is someone else’s fault. Just because we were pushing them around in football it might be believable we bully them in the boardroom as well. Or maybe the folks that always…[Read more]

Goodness, it is Northwestern. I remember watching Utah let a win slip away with Northwestern in our last Holiday Bowl. I almost lost my life slipping on wet steel in the stadium that day.

Following Oregon to the Fiesta, I think Az will go to the Alamo Bowl. Next, I think Utah will be taken over USC and OSU for the Vegas Bowl. Who knows who will show up for USC and OSU has even greater problems wondering who is still there. Any guess who the other team could be?

I think we have learned even hard agreements only last half way to the first opportunity.

Charlie replied to the topic Harlan in the forum Football 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Actually he was probably one of the few with not much interest to protect. He can lean into the Pac interest to help a team that helped end the Pac and the Pac is months from being completely in history only. Probably hard to lean into the Big 12 to help a team that is leaving the Big 12 and his new home is full of strangers that were our active…[Read more]

We are very familiar with the Utah details of weak spots. However, comb thru the details of other lower ranked teams and you find similar stories. Than again, against a mid major schedule or any Liberty opponents, the last two games would be a cakewalk with no hint of weakness.

Charlie replied to the topic Why Isn't Utah Ranked in the Top 25? in the forum Football 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Part of the problem is ranking power teams with mid majors. The issue is the schedules are night and day different. We know that because we have been in both places and understand the difference. If the poll does not separate the two, simply do so yourself. Liberty may be the best mid major but still is not a D1 top 25. You would have the same…[Read more]

Charlie replied to the topic Glad Washington Won, BIG DRAMA about to happen for CFP in the forum Football 9 months, 3 weeks ago
It is all a sad mess, so ESPN has 4 hours to explain these four spots and 8 other spots rounding out the NY6 spots. They need to get help from the BB selection process that at least has some criteria. Missing is more clear consideration for SOS like Quad 1 (etc) wins. This would reward football teams that play more P5 opponents. It would also…[Read more]

Three stars are fine, however 86 thru 89 have much more success. 85 and below tend to be projects somewhat. Update for the current year, Az is our equal and may remain so for the near future.

I think getting 2 of the last three and runner up in 2 of the last 5 leaves Utah at the top of the last half decade of the Pac 12.

Charlie replied to the topic Don’t care for UW, but Lanning and NikeU can suck on that in the forum Football 9 months, 3 weeks ago
The answer is simple math not emotion. Kick the ball deep. The math would say if you kicked off 20 times the number of times you could stop a drive with no more than 1 first down is greater than the number of onside kicks you could convert out of 20 tries. Three and outs are more common than onside kick conversions. Sure Washington was hard to…[Read more]

The Oregon assistant or staff member with a bunch of eye black didn’t scare Washington.
