When that announcer started talking about it being a nice Quad 1 win for the Utes with like 3 minutes to go I knew St. Mary’s was about to start making shots. Terrifying ending, good win.

WasatchRanger replied to the topic men's BB in the forum Basketball (Men) 12 months ago

Yeah that was a good win! Not a very fun 2nd half to watch, but a good win. Impressed that the guards stepped up with Carlsen not having his best game.

Top notch!

Interesting thoughts from Whittingham on the Spence Checketts podcasts re: conference changes. Says he thinks conferences will likely change again in the next 2-5 years.

WasatchRanger replied to the topic I don't want to be in the same conference as…. them in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago

I’m on the opposite spectrum. Playing BYU in November on rivalry week was fun. The September games never felt quite the same to me.

Yes there will be more exposure to Zoobs, but it’s part of life. I’m just grateful we found a good conference that will hopefully allow us a shot to compete in the CFP if we do our part.

Title says it all.

Utah is expected to be accepted into the Big 12 as soon as tonight. Announcement could come within next 48 hours.

Do you think ticket prices will change/maybe stagnate if the U is in the Big 12?

WasatchRanger replied to the topic BEST CASE SCENARIO in the forum Pac-12 1 year, 3 months ago

Seems like Big-12 is most likely at this point.

Also in here, Utah and Arizona State have "ramped up" talks with the Big 12.

Well, it appears we are “showing interest” per McMurphy

Arizona State & Utah "showing interest" in the Big 12, sources told @ActionNetwork. Arizona has already applied for Big 12 membership, but Big 12 now "exploring its options" following news of Oregon & Washington leaving for Big Ten

Let’s not count our eggs before they hatch – I haven’t seen anything confirming Utah or ASU to the Big-12.

Hopefully it works out though. That would be an interesting football league, and may help basketball recruiting as well.

WasatchRanger replied to the topic UW and UO reportedly gone in the forum Pac-12 1 year, 3 months ago

RIP to the Pac.
Hopefully the Utes end up in the Big-12. There would be some fun clashes of style and it could really boost our Texas recruiting.

WasatchRanger replied to the topic Should know a lot in the next hour in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago

I was living out of the country (mission) and didn’t follow the move to the Pac-12 in 2010. Was is this crazy? Because this is nuts.

WasatchRanger replied to the topic Should know a lot in the next hour in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago

IMO if AZ leaves but Oregon and Washington stay I would hope we add SDSU and SMU. I’m not as high on either Colorado State or either of the Tulane/Rice combo.

WasatchRanger started the topic Schools Asking to Join the Pac in the forum Pac-12 1 year, 4 months ago

Sounds like a good chunk of the MWC and some additional schools have requested to join the PAC.

If the current 9 teams stay together and the PAC adds SMU, SDSU, and (insert other G5 team with a decent market), I think that conference would be decent.

WasatchRanger started the topic Behind the Scenes in the forum Basketball (Men) 1 year, 6 months ago

Is there anyone on this board with connections to the basketball team like OnlyU has to the football team?

Like many on this forum I have this hope that the basketball team starts to turn it around, and also starts getting some young recruits that can invigorate the program. I was happy we brought in Keita and Exacte last year and thought those…[Read more]

Bridged just got a Crystal Ball to Utah per 247, and has posted a picture in a Utah uniform on his instagram page. Things looking good.
