HoosierUte replied to the topic Whitt said that Rising could come back next year. Do we want that? in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago

I mean if I was getting paid $500k to be at the U, Id still be in school… Really depends on what their options are in the league.

HoosierUte replied to the topic NIL Announcement Tomorrow in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago

If true I am glad that Utah is playing this game and keeping up with the Joneses for the time being. I am all for these guys being compensated but we need to get some fair play rules or this whole thing will run away from us.

Maybe I am just a sicko but I loved Bill’s commentary.

Wow that seems like a terrible strategy…

HoosierUte replied to the topic Air Force unveils Tokyo bombing unis in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago

Dan Carlin has a great series called Supernova in the East about this period. Imperial Japan was terrible. I am rethinking my earlier post. My knee-jerk reaction is that the sports/war blending is always in poor taste, but we are talking about a service academy here and the Doolittle Raid was a very important and heroic effort. Too much…[Read more]

“Japanese people do go to Pearl Harbor. And watch the movie clip. And cheer at the end.” Doubt it.

Those uniforms are slick, very poor taste to market them this way though.

HoosierUte replied to the topic Barnes is undefeated in the 1 game he’s started. in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago

The guy will have played significant time in 4 college games, two of which were Rose Bowls, and faced Ohio State, Penn State, Florida, and Wazzu.

HoosierUte replied to the topic ACL surgery in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago

Was listening to a recent Bill Riley and Sly stated that if he was a full practice participant by this Thursday (2-weeks out from game 1), he would assume that Cam isn’t playing. I tend to agree. Two weeks of live practice is a pretty short on-ramp, even for an experienced player. I am shifting focus to hoping he can be ready for league play. The…[Read more]

Did I accidentally drop into UF.net? Get it together. We are in fall camp/realignment and we are clutching our pearls about some maxi pads in the bathroom? You sure you didn’t need one?

HoosierUte started the topic AZ Reporter asked Caleb Williams about WR Dorian Singer (transfer AZ to USC) in the forum Pac-12 1 year, 4 months ago

His response “He made a bunch of great catches, and I looked over at one of our coaches and said ‘After this season, are we gonna get him?” — just when you thought this guy couldn’t be more unlikable…
Really wish there was some agency, maybe a national collegiate athletics association of some sort that had the teeth to stop this.

I don’t know much about this guy other than he was kicked off the team at Oklahoma for participating in an armed robbery. We need help at the position and I trust our coaches.

Id be ok with a new direction, although I have been generally happy with the UA Utah gear that I have.

HoosierUte started the topic Little bro copying the hand painted helmet idea? in the forum They So Poo Poo 2 years, 1 month ago

Just saw in an ESPN article about last week’s uniforms that the tds had handpainted helmets in their game last weekend. As far as I know, we are the only school that does this. Kinda cheesy for them to copy the idea, but I guess that is on brand.

HoosierUte started the topic Looking ahead at conference race. in the forum Football 2 years, 1 month ago

It’s a four-horse race for two spots in the P12 title game. I looked through the remaining schedules of the three other teams, and potential losses I see:
UCLA: Oregon, USC
USC: UCLA
Oregon: UCLA, Utah, Washington, Oregon State
It looks like the Oregon game will be a must-win, as we would lose the head-to-head tiebreaker with Oregon and UCLA…[Read more]

HoosierUte started the topic Degenerate Gambler Post in the forum Football 2 years, 5 months ago

As a degenerate gambler, I eagerly await the release of the regular-season total wins lines every year. This season has me on the edge of putting down some serious money on the Utes to cover. Fanduel has the Utes at 8.5 at -115, most other books have us at 9 (meaning 9 wins would be a push, need 10 to win). Other lines of note:
Total Wins:
