I gave up my season tickets two years ago now. Really happy with that decision. The product isn’t worth the $$$ whatsoever. I agree, can’t even keep track of who is on the team anymore.

I blame Coach K for pretty much all of the apathy. But, probably not the way most people blame him. I think he is a really good coach. But, he has not been rec…[Read more]

Starting to make even more noise…..targeting Oklahoma.

Spring break at the U, NIT game, …..going to be a ghost town.

It’s always “next year” isn’t it? Joking, but not joking.

Counting on a bunch of new (young) players to immediately do well? I’d really temper those expectations. Lower expectations 😉

This team exceeded expectations, and is still nothing more than an NIT team. Same as last year. Teams will pick the Utes apart in the middle next year. Jayce jus…[Read more]

6 home games, 5 away (ignoring the exhibition game).

It’s a pathetic schedule that isn’t set up to help the players. It helps a coaches record and nothing more. I have no problem with a few cupcake games, but this is two years in a row of the same crap.

My hangup is as a season ticket holder…..$5k for this kind of crap is pathetic (so I am…[Read more]

That’s another pathetic schedule. The home portion is a joke, just like last year. This is simply about padding stats, absolutely not about getting ready for Pac12 and NCAA tourney play. This schedule doesn’t do the players any favors at all. It isn’t getting them ready. Is winning against directional schools really good for their psyche? Are they…[Read more]

That was the only decent non-conf home game this year.

Of course, we don’t know the non-conf home schedule because the Utes don’t release it until after the deadline for season ticket renewal has passed.

Smart thing to do when you have a pathetic schedule 😉

Now with Kuz gone we have two scholarships. I think this late in the recruiting season it’s just worth giving to one of the walk-ons for one season and then look to fill both next year.

Gonna be a rough season. Lots of scoring has left the building. And we honestly have no bench. Whatever lead the starters might, and that’s a really big might, be…[Read more]

He is going to get paid. NBA draft.net has him as the first player taken in the second round (to Atlanta—which has invited him in for a personal workout).

Kuz will be fine. Sad to see him leave, but I completely understand his decision. He graduates this week, and the team doesn’t look good next year.

Haven’t re-upped my season tix yet. With…[Read more]

yes – he absolutely has the option of going to another school as a graduate transfer. And I agree 100%. If that were to happen, it is damning for Larry. Transferring to another school, for someone like Kuzma that gets all the playing time, all the shots he wants? That would certainly be an indictment of the coach.

I can’t see it…[Read more]

Let’s think about this……

1) he graduates next week. He would have to be enrolled in a graduate program and attend/pass those classes for the fall semester

2) is the team going to be better next year, or is he going to be forced to carry the load and simply be double-teamed a lot?

3) he was pretty tired of Larrs’s “lack of leadership”…[Read more]

Jokl contributed too…..1.1ppg

So what’s your point? My point is that I don’t ever count on freshmen to contribute at all. If they do, fantastic. If they don’t, so what. We should never be in a position to need them to contribute. But here we are.

Because freshmen rarely produce? Not like this is a top ten freshmen or something like that. I dunno, I rarely expect a freshmen to produce much if anything at all. Game is faster, everyone is bigger, offenses are more complex, etc….

I could be wrong, which would be wonderful.
