2008 National Champ

I’m not hating but I sincerely doubt Mateer would come to Utah. A lot of high-caliber, deep pocketed programs are going to be losing QBs after this season. Honestly, Utah picked a bad time to have a horrific season.

I just read that he was at the Texas vs A&M game. Hard to believe it won’t be one of those two schools.

LOL…Tony, can you imagine how much more entitled Boise State fans will become if they win the CFP? The worst times I’ve had at RES with fans have been at games versus the Broncos and the TDS.

USC has gotten worse every season since Riley arrived in LA. If it wasn’t for his gargantuan buyout, Riley would have received his walking papers after this season. As long as he’s there and Uncle Phil keeps funding Oregon, all that’s going to happen is that the cream of SoCal’s recruits is going to continue making the trek to Eugene. Believe…[Read more]

I agree…no matter his subpar record the last two seasons at FAU’s head coach, his resume speaks for itself. I would say the same thing about Mullen with the caveat that he’s been away from the game since the 2021 season.

Personally, I think Utah would be lucky to get Herman. How soon we forget, Herman went 22-4 as Houston’s head coach and 32-18 as Texas’s head coach. He’s also 5-1 in bowl games and was Texas’ head coach when they demolished Utah 38-10 in the 2019 Alamo Bowl. He’s already coached in and won in an environment that’s greater in pressure than anything…[Read more]

Clickbait as an art form.

And that’s why reputable sources always refer to them as “mythical national championships.”

Mateer is a good QB. If he decides to leave Wazzu, he’ll have many suitors ala Cam Ward. I’m not certain that Utah will be able to outbid teams like Miami, etc.. for his services.

Miami better hope that Clemson beats SMU in the ACC CG. If Clemson wins, I think SMU gets in as well and Miami misses the cut.

I sure hope that Whitt lets Arbuckle do his thing come hell or high water.

Utah is like the Kiss of Death.

All I’ve heard the last couple of years is how UCF is a power on the rise, excellent facilities, Bounce House, great recruiting classes, bla, bla, bla… I guess that they can always bring Scott Frost back to win them another “NC”.

All will be forgotten if the Bucks make the CFP.

Does Ike have any local relatives? If so, give him/her a clipboard and a whistle.

For what it’s worth, here are the salaries of current Big 12 football head coaches with the exception of Sitake:

Highest-Paid Big 12 Football Coaches

1. Mike Gundy, Oklahoma State – $7.75 million
2. Lance Leipold, Kansas – $7.5 million
3. Kyle Whittingham, Utah – $6.525 million
4. Deion Sanders, Colorado – $5.7 million
5. Chris Klieman, Kansas…[Read more]

$500-600K is damn good money, especially if you live a simple life and invest significant portions of it over, say a decade-long career. It’s chump change though compared to what Canadian hockey players make in the NHL.

Urban Meyer, but I only chose him because Ron McBride is too old.

Well, to that point, he said today during his press conference words to the effect that he would step down when he thought that he was no longer value added to the team.
