The Colorad9 game will be, as Bill Walton would say, “a celebration of life.”

Holy shit. That’s one heavy dude.

I have a couple of thoughts on this.

1. When playing a bad team, you shouldn’t be in a position to lose because of 2 turnovers.
2. UW scored on their last 4 possessions.
3. This result would be acceptable if it wasn’t the exact same script, time after time after time after time. This result is what Larry has prepared this team – nay, this…[Read more]

Let’s examine Larry’s shortcomings:

1. He loses players – consistently.
2. His teams underachieve. Forget the performance vs. the media poll – that means nothing. Look at all the times he’s lost in the first round of the PAC 12 tourney, even when he had the higher seed. Additionally, the couple of his teams that made the dance (like a…[Read more]

There is very little evidence of Coach knowing what he’s doing.

Here’s my view. He got to Utah and scored a few huge recruits early on. That lead him to think he could get blue-chip recruits, which, without criminally cheating like USC and Arizona, he was never going to get. Meanwhile, he can’t keep the players he does land, so he’s always…[Read more]

All blame leads back to Larry. Your argument is that you can’t blame them because they haven’t been together, but Larry is to blame for that because he can’t retain players. So he’s creating his own mediocrity.

Also, Larry’s teams, even with great players (Poeltl, Wright and Kuzma on the same team) have grossly underperformed. That team lost…[Read more]

Gach is a guard who can’t handle the ball or make decisions. He’s a poor man’s Bryant Markson.

Larry has no idea how to coach decent fundamentals. His teams just don’t play good basketball.

At this point, getting into the CBI is a very lofty goal.

I think the lack of anyone complaining about this team says a lot about where we are as a fan base. Down 15, more turnovers than shots…
And nobody complains, which means, this is what our fanbase expects.

Someone on Twitter said you can keep them away by making your yard look like an endzone.

They are all on the road at their rival’s places too, which increases the intrigue. Go Auburn, Go OK State, Go whoever Minnesota is playing!

I agree with your argument, except the Penn State part – they have two losses and that’s that.

The trouble with Oklahoma is that the committee can put them in and say, “see, we put in a team from the west.”

Nothing would make me happier than an Alabama loss. They have one of the most insufferable fan bases in the world. Their main argument for getting into the playoff is “We should get in because it says Alabama on our jerseys.”

Utes blow an 8 point lead in the final three minutes, and fail to get off a decent shot on their last 5 possessions. Typical Larry K finish.

The team is young and will learn, blah blah blah. But Larry failed to coach them to a single effective offensive or defensive possession in the final 3 minutes.

His system works pretty good during the…[Read more]

Daniels over 200 passing yards so far. Against the Utes, he totaled 25 yards.

I don’t think this team would get blown out by anybody.

That said, the answer to this question is ALWAYS the playoff. It’s like asking if the basketball team would rather do well in the NIT or lose in the Big Dance.

Always the Dance, always the playoff.

Redding is 100% on 43 P.A.T. attempts. He’s 8/10 on field goals and hasn’t missed one for a while.

Lennon is averaging 40 yards per punt on 26 punts.

Our kicking game is not “mediocre” or “poor”. It’s good, but not all-American caliber.
