2008 National Champ

Where are they playing this season? I know that season tickets cost about the same as a meal at McDonald’s.

Just my opinion…if you look at Coach K’s trajectory at Utah, the team was getting progressively worse every season after the departure of Wright and Poetl. His tenure here was a sinking ship and, just looking at his body language during games, you definitely got the impression that A. He’d much rather be somewhere else doing something else and…[Read more]

I remember having conversations with you about this issue on “Block U.”. Coach K was definitely fired a year or two too late because of that anchor contract extension Chris Hill gave him. I remember that everyone’s minds were boggled seeing the product on the floor and knowing that Coach K was one of the highest paid college basketball coaches in…[Read more]

No disrespect, but the only people that can say that Coach K was deserving of another year are those that didn’t live the experience. Coach K’s last few years with the team were as bad an anything we’ve seen from Smith albeit with a more athletic crew. It’s telling that, either due to burnout or a loss of interest in the game, Coach K…[Read more]

This is an interesting comment. The reason I say that is because, in the six seasons that I’ve been going to MBB on a regular basis, I personally have never had a single issue with parking or departing a game. Maybe it’s different if you’re driving south from the JHC? I live in Davis County and I’ve had no issues at all. And that includes…[Read more]

Love it! I’ll add it to my lexicon.

I’ll be there on Monday as well. Hope that the team doesn’t have a letdown playing an unimpressive KSU team.

I kind of blew this game off because I wanted to watch the USA vs Canada hockey game and thought that Utah would have a hard time versus Kansas. I’m not questioning that decision since the hockey game was extremely entertaining and I was able to catch Utah’s second half on TV. The game kind of reminded me of the Arizona game at the JHC during…[Read more]

Yeah listen, I’ve had MBB season tickets since the 19-20 season and those numbers are nowhere close to the facts on the ground. It’s a historical truth that teams of all stripes and sports regularly cook their attendance numbers to appear to be better than what they actually are. And this is particularly true of teams with low attendance…[Read more]

It’s funny…the reality is that fans have all of the power but are always seen as a cash cow or the “Bank of Fan.”

Well, I’m of the opinion that only winning fixes everything. You could have an opulent arena sitting only 8K people and it would still be half empty if you had a product resembling what the Utes have been putting on the floor since Smith arrived.

There’s also the law of unintended consequences, otherwise known as cutting off your nose to spite…[Read more]

I’ve been a regular visitor and contributor to this site since I joined it a couple of years ago after “Block U” went under. This is not a threat, just a fact…if I start getting the feeling that certain individuals are beginning to introduce political commentary on this site, then that’ll be my last day here. The last thing I need, or anyone…[Read more]

😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂

No. I can’t remember the last time we had a blizzard come through SLC anyway.

Hey Eagle, actually I don’t mind taking the trip up to Laramie. I’ve always wanted to see a game there and this contest gives me the perfect opportunity. I’ve already made reservations and, boy, am I glad I could use hotel points to do so. I don’t know if anyone has checked but hotel prices in Laramie make what the Grand America charges in SLC…[Read more]

How about that Dylan Guenther? GW goals in back-to-back nights!!! This time with 33 seconds left in OT. So glad that the UHC locked him up to a long-term contract before the season started.

With or without Smith? Personally, and I’ve said a few times, I don’t see a realistic pathway for Utah to get rid of Smith after this season. I just think that there’s a kind of “buyout fatigue” and the university will probably just rather see him run out his contract instead of paying to go away. Now, the only way that changes is if Smith…[Read more]

It is extremely fishy and is just another nail in the NBA’s coffin. No way, no how, any team trades THE player of his generation unless they don’t give a rat’s ass about winning. And, this might be an example of that…a new ownership in it expressly for the purpose of making money above everything else.

It kind of reminds me of the Miami…[Read more]

You know, I actually saw that movie at the theater when it first came out. I remember some of the plot details but couldn’t remember the part about moving the team to Miami.
