Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Big-12 after dark – Arizona at Utah is slated for 8:15 kick on ESPN in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
I’m old and don’t like the 8:15 start time. You can bet the ranch I’ll be there ready to go. I’ve had this game and the BYU game marked on my calendar since the schedule came out. I’m sure the players are on the same page. Cam let it be known during media day.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Is L. Barton a half step slow, especially laterally? in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
I have thought the same thing Tony. I haven’t seen Barton blitz yet. That was a big part of his game last before he got hurt. Maybe he has been a little precautious early until he feels 100% again.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic It is suppose to be 95 degrees at game time on Saturday in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Get out the pickle juice and mustard. I’d never heard of mustard but a couple weeks ago at my grandson Ute conference game a couple of the boys were cramping and one of the moms had mustard packets. Just when you think you’ve heard it all.

Jim Vanderhoof started the topic Have found our identity after first three games? in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
The age old football adage : “they haven’t found their identity yet”. 2021 was power running game , tight ends and Cam making plays with his feet. Same with 2022. 2023 with Cam out we never found our identity.
2024 after three games our identity looks like “the throw game”. We don’t have a power running game and Cam is limited with running abi…[Read more]

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic I could be wrong, BUT I believe Utah will beat OSU with Wilson at the helm in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Big difference between a good G5 team on the road in Logan and a good P4 team playing in Stillwater. Cam will be ready and up to the task. Wilson will be there someday.
Getting his first win on the road against an instate rival should do wonders for his confidence.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Optimism in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Good points. The coaches learned a lot in these first 3 games. Even with Wilson getting more reps than Cam it’s clear we can throw the ball. Singer and Parks are big play receivers and our tight ends can get open. With a potent passing attack our RBs can be effective when called upon.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Help me feel better in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
I think these first three games have exposed a few weaknesses. Going 3-0 is the goal. This week will be the true test of what we have on defense and offense.
Our coaches will make some adjustments and have the team ready to go. We developed our backup qb and figured out what our running game will look like. Our “throw game” looks like our str…[Read more]

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic The good and bad in two sentences in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Good: Wilson looked like a P4 QB. Offensive line got a good push the second half. We got Singer-Parks some catches.
Bad: defense missed a lot of tackles. D-line got outplayed in the first half. If we got any injuries.( Otoole) -
Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic BigXII top three teams at the end of the year? in the forum Pac-12 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Still too early to predict. There are several teams that could be there in the end. Who ever stays healthy and grows as a team. As of today:
1. Utes
2. Kansas State
3. Oklahoma St. -
Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Gameday in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
Isaac is going to have a great game. Utes will take care of business and move on to OSU.
Go Utes -
Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Over/Unders for all of you in the forum Football 4 months, 2 weeks ago
I’ll go with Tony on everything except #1 I’ll go under 110.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic I hear Cam will dress but not start in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Like I said Whitt has him trained. The saga lives on. He knows if he is starting or not by now. The Aggies are more worried about who their QB will be.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic I hear Cam will dress but not start in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Did anyone else catch Cams interview on ESPN 700 today. It caught me by surprise when he said he was ready to play. Whitt has him trained. I still haven’t heard any information on how bad his injury is or specifically what it is.
Sounds like dressing him and using him if he is needed is the best option. If it is a laceration as some have m…[Read more]

I hope you’re right Utah. I’ve watched too many Ute games over the years to think anything is a given.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Vegas spread has dropped 4 points in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
What has Wilson done to make you think we can score 31? First road game and a highly motivated USU.
I hope you’re right and there is no reason for concern. I like Wilson and think he will be good but he has to prove it at some point.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Vegas spread has dropped 4 points in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Playing Wilson evens the playing field some. I think everyone else will step up and get the win for Wilson knowing Cam will be back next week.🤞

Sad state of college football. At some point the donors will feel like they can make better use of that money.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Utah State Aggies in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
I agree Miami. I don’t think the Aggies are going to just lay down. They have some athletes and could give us a game with Wilson at qb. I’d love to see Wilson have a good game to get his confidence. If Cam plays I think we win big.

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Utah State Aggies in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Unfortunately you will be right AzUTE. One can only hope. If Wilson plays they will blitz a lot. I’d like to see Wilson roll out more and have the throw run option. The 2023 offense could reappear. Barnes will know every play call. Lol

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Cam shouldn't play Saturday (even if available) in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
I know it drives us all crazy speculating every week who is hurt and how bad. We need a Ute hub spy to infiltrate the program and get the inside scoop.
