I’m not sure their QB and WR will even be there. Sure, they said they would come back. Let’s see how they feel after spring ball.

Let’s see if they still like Arizona and the new coaches.

Someone will lose a QB and will toss big time cash at them.

Have you seen their schedules? Kansas doesn’t play anyone. Maybe everyone’s schedule just sucks. The Big 12 sucks.

We have one of the harder schedules in the Big 12. Kansas and UCF’s are absolutely pathetic.

Totally agreed. It was so easy to go to road games in the PAC-12. Everyone was so close.

@Oklahoma State – no thanks.
@Houston – eh
@UCF – Ok Disney World is there…oh, you put it the weekend of Thanksgiving when Disney is packed? No thanks.

Bleh.

Our best home games are TCU or BYU…back to the MWC we go…

Holy Shit. UCF’s schedule is so easy. Ours isn’t that hard, but theirs is a cake walk. They get BYU and us and Colorado at home. No Oklahoma State…and everyone else kinda sucks in the Big 12.

They should be in the conference finals.

This is Whitt’s Achilles Heel. He can’t recruit HS QB’s. I don’t know what it is. If he can’t get them interested in Utah’s scheme or what. But outside of Huntley, he’s been terrible.

He can get solid transfer QB’s, and I guess that is where he needs to butter his bread (which he has done). The problem with this route, is you can never get a HS…[Read more]

Ha ha. I don’t think that’s what I’m saying…I’m just saying it was more important to keep Rising than to win 10 games with a transfer QB and have Rising leave.

But damn, we should have beaten Northwestern and ended up with 9 wins and ranked. Shit.

Last year was…messed up. The injuries, Rising, etc. Whitt was in a tough place, because if you can hold onto Rising…2024 your schedule is exponentially easier. Your toughest game is versus Oklahoma State and they lost to a Sun Belt team last year. There is no Oregon, Washington, USC on the schedule.

With Rising you are favored to win the…[Read more]

I don’t think Petersen comes back to college football. That being said, when Whitt retires, Petersen should be our first call.

I’d take him over Scalley. I don’t care how loyal Scalley has been. If Petersen isn’t interested, then I’m ok with Scalley.

But we are the perfect program for Petersen. If he was to return anywhere, we would be the…[Read more]

My counter argument would be this: Look at Whitt’s recruiting at Utah: It is amazing for Utah, but it sucks for Michigan.

I’ve always said if USC hired Whitt, he would replicate Pete Carroll’s success. They are the same coach. Whitt would thrive in Michigan. When Rising was not hurt, he took it to Ohio State and Penn St. Hell, even without…[Read more]

Rivals: BYU, Arizona, ASU. You’d think Colorado would be here as well…but they suck. They went 1-8 in the PAC-12 last year. They will be better this year because the Big 12 is a worse conference, but not that much better. They might get to 6 wins, Sanders will go pro and I bet Deion bails and Colorao goes back to sucking. If we haven’t created a…[Read more]

There is a less than 1% chance he is back. He and Sirianni were absolutely awful last year.

Fucking fantastic game.

That was an incredibly stupid decision as well.

But that doesn’t vindicate BJ. His QB was runner up MVP last year. He has AJ Brown, one of the of best WR’s in the NFL. He has Smith at the other WR spot. Julio Jones is WR #3. Goedert is a top 5, maybe top 3 TE. If not the best OL, top 3 OL. Oh, and Swift at RB.

The Eagles started 11-1. And they…[Read more]

I agree there. Sundays I wear Eagles. Saturdays is my Utes.

If there’s a big Phillies/Sixers game, I’ll wear that, but every other day of the week is normal clothes.

He hasn’t been fired…yet. He is interviewing for HC jobs.

That being said, he will be fired. He was awful. Just awful. They only ran about five plays the whole season. He had arguably more talent than anyone and was just awful. It was no different than the offense he ran at Utah. Just awful.

Sirianni may or may not get fired (I hope he does)…[Read more]

He won the MWC? I guess he did the COVID year. I don’t know how much I’d rely on that. Outside of that, he’s incredibly mediocre.

Yeah, it’s hard to win at SJSU. But it ain’t the P12 or ACC. It’s not that hard to win there. And he’s never won over 7 games.

I’m not too impressed with this hire.

I wonder what Shah’s goals are. If he just wants to coach at Utah, make a shit ton of money and win, then I wonder if you could make him an AHC and special teams coordinator/CB coach and then make Swan DC.

I don’t know if Shah would want that, but its an idea.
