Kirk Herbstreet replied to the topic Realignment Predictions in the forum Football 5 months ago
My predictions are similar, but different in a few ways. I feel fairly confident that the B1G is going to 24 teams. This is based on conversations with people who are clued in at the University. That means 6 more teams. Based on some information and some conjecture I feel pretty strongly about 5 of those teams being virtual locks. There is a…[Read more]

Kirk Herbstreet started the topic RES Naming Rights in the forum Football 6 months ago
If SLC is able to secure the Olympics next month. The next call the U should make should be to Mr. Bowser, Nintendo President and Utah Alum, and make a deal for the naming rights. An international company could get its name on the venue for the opening and closing ceremonies not to mention some of the best football in the country.

Yikes. None of this is a good look. If they get serious about this, Utah needs to leave even if a FSU/Clemson-less ACC is the only option.

Kirk Herbstreet started the topic UU Football National Champions 2024 in the forum Football 6 months, 3 weeks ago
The last two national champions (Georgia and Michigan) had 10 and 13 NFL draft picks the following spring. Unsurprisingly, the number of draft picks a team gets the following spring is a pretty good indicator of how well the team performed the season before.
Now do I think Utah is going to win the whole thing this upcoming season?
Maybe. But…[Read more]

Kirk Herbstreet started the topic Transfer Portal Wish List in the forum Football 7 months, 2 weeks ago
If I could pick whoever I wanted from the list of players that are still available in the portal, here is who I would pick (I believe we have 4 – 5 more open spots):
1. Cormani McClain – CB. This is less to do with this upcoming season, and more to do with the future. He could benefit from a coaching staff like Utah’s.
2. Star Thomas – RB. New…[Read more]

Kirk Herbstreet started the topic If I were College Football Commissioner for a Day in the forum Football 7 months, 2 weeks ago
I am worried about the future of CFB. There needs to be some sort of balance between tradition and new. I don’t want to alienate a bunch of CFB fans of G5 teams let alone Big XII and ACC schools. So here is what I would do:
1. 24 schools in the B1G and SEC. 4 divisions of 6 in each. Utah would be in the B1G with ASU, Arizona, Colorado, Nebraska…[Read more]

Kirk Herbstreet started the topic College Football Realignment Dream Scenario in the forum Football 9 months, 1 week ago
This is admittedly fan fiction but if I were in charge of CFB for a day, here is how I would engineer the upcoming mega changes (that are unavoidable in one way or another).
1. 7 ACC schools would announce their intention to leave the ACC this spring (FSU, Miami, Clemson, UNC, NCState, UVA, and VaTech). All 7 of these schools would end up in the…[Read more]

Kirk Herbstreet replied to the topic Why can’t we draw more fans in the forum Basketball (Men) 1 year, 1 month ago
I grew up when Majerus was coach. I bled basketball. Played it for hours a day. Watched every Jazz game that was on TV and was lucky enough to attend 10 – 15 games a year. When I wasn’t there or the game wasn’t on TV, I listened to the radio broadcast. But oddly enough, even then I was still a Utah football over Utah basketball fan. We were okay…[Read more]

If they don’t have 15 of the players trucks parked right next to where the Gameday crew is going to be set up, someone needs to be fired.

But we are okay with accusing players of fraud?

Up to and including fraud, huh? Good to know where you stand. Unreal crap from our fans.
Who needs BYU fans when you have Utah fans like this.

This pure butt-wipery of a post. A lot of our fans just plan and simple suck. They act like absolute garbage human beings, accusing coaches and players of terrible things and then say its Kyle’s fault for being so secretive. Sorry, no. You don’t get to blame KW for you acting like a douche canoe.

Doubt all you want. There is a reason why Whitt says what he says and its not to troll. UCLA and Utah will be in the same conference again. Sooner rather than later.

Kirk Herbstreet started the topic Update to Utah's B1G Resume in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
A couple of updates to Utah’s status as a B1G candidate:
1. New on campus housing project was recently completed. The University expects to bring 12,000 additional on or near campus beds online in the next five years. Crazy. Utah’s days as a commuter school are numbered:
2. Total enrollment passed 35,000 for the first time in…[Read more]

Kirk Herbstreet replied to the topic Magnitude of Friday in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago
This week is huge. One of the biggest games of the season. Don’t know who the QB will be. Don’t know who is coming back. But IF Utah wins at Oregon State, and we get a well timed bye week…who knows what the heck will happen. Cal should be a W. That would get us to 6-0 with a trip to USC. Plus we could be really healthy. Cam Rising? Brant Kuithe?…[Read more]

Watch this video:
There is some Utah talk in there, but they are talking about the possibility of a playoff where conference champions go to a playoff to play each other and conferences have a four
to eight team playoff of their own. Which, by the way, is exactly where this is going. It makes too much…[Read more] -
Kirk Herbstreet started the topic Utezone has become a hell hole in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago
For some of the worst of our fans. The collective football IQ of those idiots is about the same as a soggy pancake. It is unbearable. You would think we are 0-4.
It’s a shame too because Steve Bartle does great work but that place is toxic.

Kirk Herbstreet replied to the topic Josh Newman on the status of Utah football in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago
No and its sorta dumb to suggest that he did/is. Cam is possibly the greatest Utah QB of all time or is at least in the conversation. If he wants to come back, you let him. We are 3-0 right now and getting the possible QB of the future reps and time.
Cam is and always has been the best chance at a special season/3-peat. Not a transfer QB.…[Read more]
