What coordinator worth his salt is going to come to Utah on a standard 3 year deal with a coach who could retire at any time? And why would Utah commit 1.5MM per w/ buyout for 3 years given the same reason?

Ludwig got a pretty sweet friends and family deal that should not be available to the next guy. I agree with people up above who said the…[Read more]

In a locker room if you are coming off as arrogant or entitled, it’s because that’s who you are. You can’t hide who are from your teammates. Winning will make others ignore it but as soon as that goes away, you don’t have any credibility. It’s not a freshman thing, it’s an asshole thing.

Film room: I found it interesting that the writer highlighted Tennessee running RPO in the red zone and the QB made the wrong read twice in a row so Bakajian called a reverse that should have been blown up as a great play sequence.

Oh, and am I the only one who thought the Spencer Fano wrinkle on the 2 point play was really nice but could have…[Read more]

Yep. I can’t imagine anyone having some fun with “this cute boy” and his sniffles in a locker room.,,

That post felt like a reaction to Rose’s mom’s post earlier in the week. Even though everyone is playing hurt, sick or emotionally spent at this point in the season, Wilson’ mom needed to point out what a hero her son was.

If Wilson wasn’t estranged from his teammates before, mama coming to his rescue isn’t going to make it any better.

I’ve been waiting all season for Wilson’s mom to check in. Now that I know how she feels, I can completely ignore everything bad that happened in that game.

I’ve gotten pretty tired of the “something was wrong with the QB but we decided to play him anyway” meme this season has turned into.

I’m of the belief that with Rose, Barnes & Johnson, the staff thought they could get through 2023 without Rising if necessary. And from the small sample size of Rose this year, I can see that logic even if I still feel like bringing in a solid QB like Graham Mertz would have been a nice insurance policy. Let’s not forget that Barnes & Johnson…[Read more]

2023 exactly the same. 2024, probably not much different. Are we really convinced that if Rising was not going to be available this year that Whitt / Ludwig would have found a transfer QB not only ready to start on day 1 but that the offense would be tailored to the new QB’s skill set? Because Jake Bentley and Charlie Brewer would beg to differ.

that’s more than a TD per quarter. when will this offensive football madness stop?

I don’t wish bad on the BYU football team. They are irrelevant to me unless they are playing Utah in any given week.

Now their followers who feel the need to attach some overarching ideal to the outcome of a game.,,

That game will come down to how tightly Colorado’s OLine is called. It bumpuzzles me how they can have 3 holding calls on one drive in the first half and then not another for the rest of the game. Must be great coaching.

Or how Hunter was able to commit OPI in front of the side judge and almost come up with a 40 yard reception. Because, as we…[Read more]

can’t be true. Plenty of people came onto the board after last Saturday for the express purpose of telling us that we were lucky to be allowed to play such incredible competition every week. surely they couldn’t all be wrong.,,

how did I miss that one.,,

Unless Whitt and unnamed OC decide Huard counts as the transfer QB and Rising makes 5 as the designated starter

but Desmond told us that the game was so unimportant, it wasn’t worth researching

9. Rice Eccles will not be homefield advantage

not really a Utah thing but I like where your head’s at

I just don’t know how you admit that when you still have games to figure out how to win.
