I think Brumfield, Wilmore, DHC and TJ will all get carries. Situational…Brumfield and Wilmore can bang and DHC/TJ bring a change of pace. All very good backs. Micah likely redshirting

Slight update…not his hand…did bang up a finger however. Might be broken but I don’t believe it’s a major issue moving forward. Finished practice. I’ll update if anything changes

I can tell you he practiced today. I don’t think he has a broken hand unless he did it getting out of bed today!! Just kidding…kind of.

Nothing major for TJ…a couple weeks is all most likely. Vickers rolled an ankle as well but should be fine

Couple things…

1. Obviously not optimal to have Bowen decide to walk away BUT Lloyd has known for a while that he was in the mix for major playing time, really an injury away from being the starter so has been preparing as such and is ready

2. The D line and experienced backfield takes a ton of pressure off the linebackers so they really get…[Read more]

Yes…Bills and Kuithe have ACL’s. Blake has been hurt almost since he’s been here. Combination of things with Fabrizio but he’s not close right now.

Covey is already running SOME routes with the QB’s so I don’t have any concern about him at all today.

I mean he only weighs like a buck thirty so it’s not like he’s carrying a lot of weight around. He’s 8 or 9 months out right now which is about where we see that injury fully healed in today’s world. He’s well on his way to playing.
I’d imagine he’ll take it easy in camp but should 100% start game 1. Moss and Bernard are/will be fine too. Ku…[Read more]

Haha! Thanks Tony! Highly unlikely Tucker joins this year. Has a lot of academic work to complete and I’m not sure it’s even possible to get it done given the time he has. Could be in play next year if he sticks with it but who knows.

I know there is some worry out there about the OL. There is plenty of talent both here and coming in to be…[Read more]

All I can tell you is there isn’t anyone in the program preparing for home games against No. Illinois or Idaho St. We have bigger fish to fry eventually but honestly who else would our attention be on? We can’t wait to play BYU in this spot. No one is intimidated by their atmosphere, no one is intimidated by their talent. We return 80% of the…[Read more]

Don’t forget about the Carlson kid. He immediately adds depth and had an offer to Oklahoma St among others. He’s probably the key. If he comes in as a solid #2 type player we’re golden. Most JC guys take a little while but the difference is he doesn’t have to come in a and start…just learn the system and be productive as he figures it out.…[Read more]

Huh? Both Coach Whit and Coach Ludwig were on the 8:30ish flight to Orange County last night. Coach Shah is recruiting a camp today as well as just about every other coach on staff somewhere. Prime evaluation season and yes…plenty of kids want to play for the Utes next Fall.

where is Pace Manyung? i haven’t been around a while, but i’d expect  at least 5 kool aid gifs from him at this point in the thread…

I was one of the early ones at the bird this am as well. mineral was icey hell, but some spots near regulator and primrose path were soft. 
Go utes

Have not heard the word “official” yet but chances are very good mainly because he didn’t play as a RS. Already sat out a year so to speak.

Tuttle…well I’m not going to expand but let’s just say the reasoning he listed on his application to transfer is complete BS…soft. That’s all I’m gonna say about that. Excited to have the 4 in the prog…[Read more]

It’s a tough call right now. Most of the kids in these spots are overly optimistic and are afraid to give completely truthful information because of the pressure they’re under from parents, coaches, friends etc. No new update today. Still a couple months left in the academic calendar but if they’re not cleared at this point there is obvio…[Read more]

News to me. Francis just had the shoulder cleaned out so I wouldn’t characterize it as a major surgery. Not sure how they could say he was done because he’s not even into full on rehab yet. I don’t know what Zach could have done to add another 6-9+ months to his time out when he’s not doing anything but lifting and riding a bike. Have you see…[Read more]

Francis got his shoulder cleaned up…nothing major. Took him a while to figure things out but by the end of the year he knew what he was doing. Doesn’t need the Spring reps.

Not sure who Henninger and Thompson are speaking with…50/50 they return at this point but we’ll know shortly.

I’d almost expect him to go the JC route vs. decommiting and only if he can’t get the classroom stuff squared away.

In other news David Fotu, Leki’s younger brother, has gotten the ACT score he needed to become eligible and will join immediately. Harding, Fred and Sione are all fighting over where he’ll end up but another massive athlete that wi…[Read more]

Still a committed Ute but has to get his academics squared away. Eligible to play HS basketball (and played football) so you can surmise he either doesn’t have the test score (yet) or is missing “core” credit(s) to get through the clearing house. I don’t expect him to decommit especially with Rising in the fold (Another SoCal kid). I still e…[Read more]

Boom!!!! Unreal
