I was being bad earlier, but I figured you would show up sooner or later to check on us so I decided to start being nice. Yay for football season and falling temps! 

I was saying Taggart’s personality = pencil, and casting doubt on Oregon’s predicted turnaround, all in a sloppily formulated statement not expecting to be confronted by an Oregon fan on a Utah fan site. =)

Anyway, Utah’s staff is good but also not above reproach. Something needs to be done about this whole November issue.. If they get the…[Read more]

Fair points. I don’t think it’s asinine or ill-informed though to think that brands can be advantage in recruiting, that Oregon has developed one, and it’s not as trashed from last year as you seem to think.

And I defy you to listen to some of the media days interviews and NOT come to the conclusion that the guy has the most stale-sounding…[Read more]

What a got damn hippie!

What is the valid point? That Taggart has a highly rated class? Do you think the name Oregon has something to do with that, or is it all him?

You are the one who wrote a 6 paragraph response to a pretty off the cuff comment. It would appear the ruffled feathers really are on your side. =)

Sorry I was a meanie about your coach. We should actually be thanking him for lending us Carrington for a few months.

I’m basing the comment about his personality on interviews I have heard. Don’t be so thin skinned about it my feathered friend, I’m not saying he’s a bad dude. Admittedly, Kyle W. also has a very dry personality, but he at least seems to try to show some humor. I’m sticking by the pencil comment. That’s super duper that he has the locker room…[Read more]

Cool story bro. Oregon always has highly rated classes, I’m still skeptical he can turn it into a 10 win season just yet. *shrug* 

They don’t need a tie in since they are obviously going to the playoffs this year. 

I predict Holiday. No way Oregon improves that much in a single season. It sounds like Willie T is about as engaging as talking to a pencil. I have a hard time believing he’s going to change those brats’ ways up there at Nike U so quickly.

I like this. The tds paradox. 

Tds will not have a football program in 20 years if they’re not invited to a conference. Maybe not 20 but for sure in 30. They can’t sustain it with the mediocrity of their schedule. They only have 5 games that matter this year for example. Can you imagine if Utah played 8 North Dakotas? And Kalani will leave for greener pastures eventually,…[Read more]

Larry who?

Ah. Mah. Gahd. 

Oh ffs, spending over $2k on fireworks. *facepalm* Whacked utah priorities.

Always buy the tickets even if your team sucks. And if not that, season pass at snowbird!

I have noticed the extreme desperation to return to the mythical glory days of BYU.

@shakeit – nice to see you here, please tell utahutedave over at blocku to come on here if you think of it. He is an entertaining one.

@thunder, By all means, stick with your picks. It will be sweeter then to say I told you so. 😜.

I share your concern about the OL. But I have to disagree about the Joe Williams statement. I loved watching Joe,…[Read more]

The 4 you mentioned, especially dubious is Texas. But WVU and Kansas seem like interesting choices to me, especially considering who got left out altogether (no Notre Dame, Boise State, etc). Actually I realized UCLA is not in there so I revise down to 6. Usually UCLA is ranked pre-season.

I think 8-4, 9-4 after bowl.
We will lose 2 games we are ”supposed” to lose (USC and maybe Stanford), and 2 games we are not (one of the Arizona schools for example).

But we will also shock someone and steal a game we’re not supposed to.
I tend to think that will be UW. Just a hunch.

Edited to add- reasons for optimism: 1-Kyle is a kick ass…[Read more]
