The wife and the mechanic are having an affair so they’re a package deal. And the wife has really let herself go and will be divorcing you in about a year, so everything will work out. We just start hitting the titty bar at this point.

ngl decent banter.

“make sure you don’t fire your wife”

Ah so in this metaphor Whittingham is the wife, that’s very cute and sweet and definitely not a disturbing window into the way you view your relationship with our coach…

Furthermore, my wife works for free, as it were. But if it was the case that my wife was merely my employee and I paid her $5 Million a y…[Read more]

“but hindsight is 20/20 and not something Whitt had the benefit of knowing before the game”

“how quickly have we forgotten the past seasons of great football”

Not quite as quickly as we’ve forgotten the bad ones, apparently. Four days is an impressive turnaround though. If I ever need to forget my own birthday or my last name or the color of grass I’ll DM you for pointers.

There’s no doubt both were a mistake. The real issue is: Is the fact that each was a mistake our fault? Completely ignoring the existence of Cam Rising and his needing to be replaced, what caused Utah to be unable to either 1. Identify any suitably talented player for the position and/or 2. Sufficiently prepare any quarterback who was suitably…[Read more]

I still don’t fully understand the psychological underpinnings of the head-in-sand sort of phenomena that has become the rule around this issue. It certainly isn’t as taboo as it was just weeks ago, but even still.

Whitt right now:

All true. I think the rule is that QBs move to other positions for exactly the reasons you outlined. My point isn’t that what was told to Ja’quinden wasn’t generally sound advice, or likely even correct advice, it’s that it came from a source that I now have every reason to discount as credible. Heck, I wonder if Bryson Barnes should be playing…[Read more]

“I think coaches that attend practice every day will be a better judge of potential over someone that does not attend practice.”

Me too, but then I watched our 2023 season. After this experience I’m left with no doubt that if a monkey in a BYU shirt threw darts at a wall of options written by the bitter spirit of Lavell Edwards we’d have…[Read more]

Bernard is probably one of my favorite Utes of all time but I’ll be willing admit Ja’Quinden has an x factor that he doesn’t. We certainly aren’t utilizing him correctly though. Bernard is the more valuable of the two for Utah, but it’s probably also our fault that that’s true.

An OC will never wildly succeed at Utah under Whitt. Ludwig isn’t doing well and he’s the best we’ve had by a long shot. We absolutely cannot do better at current. We know what the OC carousel looks like at this point. A bunch of guys who all end up looking curiously similar to one another who, entirely coincidentally I’m sure, end up parting ways…[Read more]

As far as QB decision making goes I’m pretty sure some genius at BYU has figured out the real life version of inception and is beaming the dumbest shit possible directly into Whitt’s head. This ridiculous explanation is somehow less far fetched than the idea that a coach who deserves a statue out in front of the stadium would be making a nearly…[Read more]

For sure. Except Samson Nacua, he can turn his jersey in.

I hope he balls out and gets some NFL money.

That’s weird I was told that definitely no one on the team cared about the QB situation and that it’d have absolutely no effect on our team by a good number of people on this board. Hmmm…

… mediocre teams don’t big brother bama

I’m not sure anyone forgot so much as they just watched the rest of the season.

Merry Christmas

Mixed rating, we did well for how many injuries we had but the handling of the QB situation was a joke, imo a fireable offense if you’re not somebody with more than plenty of built up good will like Whitt.

To be completely clear, the way every ounce of the QB situation was handled this year from the beginning of spring ball to the end of that…[Read more]
