Come on guys, he didn’t say that. He’s obviously being dishonest about how bought into the program he was, but he did not say what that tweet says he did.

He’s clearly a liar that is more concerned about his pocketbook and his public image than he is about his integrity, but lets not say he said things he did not say. He’s a liar because he says it isn’t about money when its obvious that it was, and he clearly feels guilty about it otherwise he wouldn’t be constantly trying to defend his actions. He’s trying to make himself feel better about leaving for money. Look, I don’t care that he left for more money. That is fine. I’d do the same thing, but why all the lies about it? Just own it dude. “yeah, I left for more money, don’t people do that in every profession?” End of story.

He’s a clown because he won’t shut up about it and he keeps being dishonest about his reasons for leaving, and his level of commitment to the Utes football team.

If he’s anything like the rest of his family he will underperform. Not saying he is, but I won’t lose any sleep over him.

I shrug about must things in college sports these days.

College sports are now nothing more than horribly run minor leagues for their respective sports. If there was at least some attempt at keeping things fair I would be okay with it. Without that, I have no need for college sports other than nostalgia. I have zero connection to University of Utah as a school, or any other school with a relevant athletic program.

I’m in the camp that believes it would be better for the teams to break away from the universities (and the NCAA) and just do it club style like they do in Europe.

My feeling of apathy is especially true for basketball. Say what you want about the NBA, but there is no denying that the game is more fun in the NBA. Most NCAA basketball games are nothing more than a free throw contest. At least the NBA has good players across the board.

I was referring to his siblings.

I know two women that this happened to. I know both the wives and husbands very well so I know the stories are true. Both boyfriends claimed to have received revelation for their girlfriends that they were supposed to be married. Both husbands ended up being abusive. It happens. There are lots of people of our faith that use it to manipulate others into making bad choices. It sucks, but it’s true.

Look, I believe in the same God he does. I pray about big decision in my life. It is entirely possible that he did feel like God was telling him to go, but that doesn’t mean money wasn’t the main motivation for even considering it in the first place. I don’t know anyone that is bought in to their current job that wakes up every morning and asks God if he should start looking for another job. You don’t do that unless you don’t feel right about where you are, and if you don’t feel right about where you are, you aren’t bought in.

This reeks of the same stench coming from the LDS guys that convince naive girls to marry them because “God told me you are supposed to marry me.” Don’t use God as an excuse for your chicken s**ttery.

It is honestly so strange to me how these guys committing to TSPP are all so hell bent on making sure everyone knows it’s not about the money. It’s almost as if they’ve been instructed to deny that money had anything to do with it. It is a business now. Football is your profession. It is perfectly fine to leave for somewhere else for more money.

haha, that is a good question. It is hard to tell with the way these threads are organized. It was in reply to Utah#1’s post.

[chinngiskhaan]

Bro, calm down. (meant for Utah#1)

He had good efficiency numbers and he’s the tallest guy on the team though, so he isn’t totally useless. He is also a decent rebounder apparently. Not a bad guy to have on the end of the bench.
