Crimson Kid

I hope he is right. I feel like I got punched in the nuts today with a couple of the recruits that chose other places besides the U.
Jaylon Johnson would really be a good pick-up. Seems like a really good kid, too.

I would be willing to bet that he doesn’t come to the UofU. His commitment was very solid for a couple of months and then something happened to make him pull down all of his Ute stuff on his twitter. If he ends up going to USC or even Arizona State, I might just curl up in the fetal position and call it a day.

No – a lot of these kids see this as an opportunity to get away from home. They see the tight white sweaters with SC on the chest of the songleaders and think they are set.

That was pretty selfish of Tufele to take the time that he did in the signing event at Bingham. All of the other students only took 5 seconds to say where they were going. He had to make it his show and thanks everyone…blah blah blah…. If you want to do that, take your own time, don’t overshadow all of the other student athletes there.

Kaskade is a UofU grad.

from wikipedia:

Following his mission, in 1992, he moved to Salt Lake City to attend the University of Utah, ultimately graduating with a degree in communications.[5][9] While attending school, he ran a record store in Salt Lake City called Mechanized.

Before the season, it was predicted that Washington had the easiest schedule out of all of the PAC12 teams. Their Out of conference schedule was pathetic with Rutgers, Idaho and Portland State. They have only played 2 away games, compared to 5 home games. They blew out Oregon – but Oregon is terrible this year. They won in OT against Arizona…[Read more]

The Poinsettia Bowl have officially invited BYU to the 2016 and 2018 bowl games – as long as they are bowl eligible and are not invited to a NY6 or semi-final game.

It probably is a good deal for the Poinsettia bowl as they will sell a bunch of tickets. Not so great for BYU, but at least their fans can plan for a bowl game early in the season

It is crazy that there are 6 players projected from Alabama. That is the same number of the entire PAC 12 and Big 10 as they each have 6 listed. No players from the Big 12 are listed

There was a tweet and a Facebook post about it yesterday from WebMonkey:

Hey everyone, I apologize for any inconvenience you are having with UF.N being down. I am aware it is down and doing what I can to get it fully understand restored. Thank you for your patience!

I will believe it when I see it

Note: It sounds like from the previous post…[Read more]

I work with someone that knows Tim very well and sees him at least 3-4 times/week. Tim said he was at 95% before the Oregon State game. I was surprised that we didn’t see him

Wait – the Utes didn’t play Cal three weeks in a row? Dang – I was duped!

I think people were willing to help keep the site going. Everyone was even willing to help out with his personal expenses, but when Chris was asking for help to pay his own bills and couldn’t even so a simple update, everyone said adios and went looking for a new home…[Read more]

I have been going to Utefans.net since, well, before it was Utefans.net. It was originally the Runnin’ Utes message board. I went back to look at it in the wayback machine and found what I suspected – personal attacks and drama has always been a part of the board. Runnin’ Utes message board
People came and left, but it somehow survived. I…[Read more]

Cal defeated Utah in 2011. The game was a home game for Cal, but was played at AT&T Park as Cal was renovating their stadium that year.
So, yes, Utah has not lost to Cal in Berkeley since joining the PAC12. But, Utah has lost a road game to Cal.

Would any of these be better titles for this thread?
“Somebody go kick WebMonkey’s ass”
“Guess who got a DUI?”
“UteFans.net is going to be for sale soon: news at 11”
“Tequila and Message Boards: don’t mix”

The intent on posting this information wasn’t to stir up any more controversy about UteFans. It was more to let those on this site know of WebMonkey’s current struggles. Alcoholism is a tough thing to kick and perhaps some around here that have been friends in the past with Chris would want to know so they could potentially reach out to him to…[Read more]

I think what you posted over on UFN was perfect. I am sure more details will come out

I think it would be a good idea to post it on UFN. This is a time that WebMonkey needs people in his corner, showing him some emotional support.

Damn. money down the drain. Oh well, I think I scored about $200 in prizes so I still came out ahead.
