Anywhere inside the Top 15 is great IMO! Klatt has us at #9 in his preseason Top 20. Lots of respect out there for Utah!

I think you nailed it Proud! I agree 100%!

MDUte replied to the topic Top 10 prospects in the forum Football 8 months, 3 weeks ago

Yes, it’s amazing we’re still legitimately in the mix for two 5* kids (Myles & Epenesa). Sounds like Epenesa is down to Iowa, Utah, and Miami. And he has family connections at all 3 so this could really break any which way at this point. All we know is he loved his OV to SLC and some think he might want to carve his own path forward (brother(s)…[Read more]

MDUte replied to the topic D-Line Preview in the forum Football 8 months, 3 weeks ago

Love it! Thanks @UtesRule! Our DL is the strength of the team and will dominate this year!

If our OL ends up being a strong as our DL (which it has the potential to be) this is going to be the special season we’re all hoping for! Go Utes!!

MDUte replied to the topic TE WR Preview in the forum Football 8 months, 3 weeks ago

Can’t believe how many weapons we have this year! Our offense is going to be amazing…can’t wait!

MDUte replied to the topic 4* OT Aaron Dunn announces on Aug 8th in the forum Football 8 months, 3 weeks ago

Saw a tweet yesterday from Bartle claiming it’s between Utah, USC, and Oregon.

MDUte replied to the topic Just For Funsies… Cam for Heisman? in the forum Football 8 months, 3 weeks ago

Btw, it seems like most of the comments are focused on whether Cam could actually win the Heisman or not if his passing numbers dramatically increased. I would just point out that if Utah does end up throwing the ball a lot more this year than ever before (as has already been predicted by OnlyU) it would still be HUGE for Cam and the program if he…[Read more]

MDUte replied to the topic 3* DT Semi Taulanga from Meter Dei committed to Utah in the forum Football 8 months, 4 weeks ago

Very true. Being a feeder for P2 schools is always going to be a concern as long as we’re on the outside looking in.

MDUte started the topic Golf Cart Convo w/Logan Fano in the forum Football 8 months, 4 weeks ago

So excited to have Logan Fano back and fully healthy going into Spring Camp. I think we all had already heard he’s been cleared and is full-go to start Fall Camp. But he confirms it again here with his conversation with Steve Bartle.

Connor O’Toole on one side with Logan Fano on the either is the 2 headed monster that will put the fear into any…[Read more]

MDUte replied to the topic Camp opens Monday in the forum Football 8 months, 4 weeks ago

I disagree. Our rushing production was the best ever when we went from Bell Cow to Run-by-Committee approach. It keeps guys more fresh and since guys know they have a limited number of game reps, they make the most of them.

MDUte replied to the topic Breaking: SLC officially named host city of 2034 Olympics! in the forum Misc 9 months ago

Couldn’t agree more. I believe Harlan has plans to replace those small useless video boards with 2 larger useless video boards…if so, I think this will be a big waste of money. There’s a large population of Utah fans who feel a connection to the stupid U-T-A-H sign on the fieldhouse because it was an idea that came from the fans and the money…[Read more]

This ^^ 100%!

MDUte started the topic Realignment Predictions in the forum Football 9 months ago

Since we are down to the final days of the off-season, I figured why not one more realignment thread?! Haha!

Here’s one nugget I learned that got me thinking about how everything might shake out. The B1G media contracts explicitly state the B1G’s media partners will pay pro-rata for up to four additions if one is ND.

We already know that one of…[Read more]

MDUte started the topic ESPN Pro Rata Clause with SEC in the forum Football 9 months, 1 week ago

Learned something new today. Here’s a clip from a Brett McMurphy report back in 2023 (link below) on the SEC’s deal with ESPN:

And then there’s the SEC. In 2020, the SEC signed a 10-year media rights deal with ESPN worth around $300 million. The deal starts in 2024 and includes a pro rata clause requiring ESPN to pay the SEC the same amount per…[Read more]

This 100%! Perfectly said Central!

MDUte replied to the topic QB depth after Rising in the forum Football 9 months, 2 weeks ago

I think the pecking order should go: Wilson, Huard, Rose. And if Wilson gets his surgery (which I haven’t heard anything to suggest he’s going to) then I would say #2 is Huard and #3 Rose and #4 Wilson (since it’s the type of surgery that he’d still be back late in the season, I believe).

MDUte replied to the topic New approach to Fall Camp being taken this year in the forum Football 9 months, 2 weeks ago

IMO, the FCS games should be played in Spring vs Power teams to give them their payday. And then the G5 programs should be the ones who play FCS teams during the regular season for additional opportunities to make their needed revenue.

MDUte replied to the topic Cam Rising getting under BYU fans' skin. in the forum They So Poo Poo 9 months, 2 weeks ago

We’ve got way bigger fish to fry this year than beating one of the bottom dwellers of the league at home. But when that game comes around I’m sure the coaches/players will give it their undivided attention, like they do for all games with their preparation. And I expect us to win that game soundly, in all 3 phases.

But as long as it’s a W,…[Read more]
