Mitchell is put in for short yardage situations or other situations where it’s clear that we’re going to run. It’s not really fair to judge him on the same curve IMO.

Micah is balling out though…and I’m not surprised. He’s always shown a lot of talent IMO.

Nobody looks at all of their options and then chooses the best one. You have certain reads and certain timings/windows. As you’re making those reads, you have to be ready to pull the trigger if you think you can make the pass. Otherwise, that window closes. A good QB is going to be reading the defense even pre-snap to get an idea of which…[Read more]

I’m on the Discord, and I’ll tell you that it really was much ado about nothing. Occasionally, he’d post something there first that he’d share a day or two later on 247, but I never felt like the timing was intentional. And since that time when things got a bit heated on 247, he’s really towed the line with anything recruiting related. He’d…[Read more]

Time stamp?

I remember reading a study about the record of away teams traveling more than 2 time zones, and it wasn’t good. Add in the short week, and that UCF game is the 2nd most concerning game by far IMO.

QBs are the hardest position for highschool ratings to get right. Most ratings are based on physical attributes since those attributes alone can get you by at the high school level. At the college and pro level, however, QBs need to rely on their cerebral and decision making skills a lot more. Other positions are more predictable because…[Read more]

Yes. Scholarship at Utah, and PWO at Oklahoma.

I believe he has a younger brother being heavily recruited by Oklahoma as well…

That should open up the run game to that gap. We just didn’t run much in the 2nd half.

RB runs outside of the safety on JJ: 14 yards, 11 yards, 6 yards.

That’s it.

His interviews come out on Thursdays.

For high school recruits, since Ty, we only have:

Ricky Parks: COVID recruit. If you look through rankings, there were a lot of misses by absolutely everyone that year.

Jaylon Glover: Decent, but not elite.

All of the 2023 recruits: All 3 weren’t meant to come in and compete. The word from the beginning is that they all need to bulk up,…[Read more]

Most of this is just pulled from Whitt’s interview yesterday. I gather that the team’s medical staff think he should be good to go, but Cam is waiting until the actual surgeon clears him. That’s the “uno” doctor. In that interview, it was also revealed that Brant has the same doctor. Whitt said that part of the recent problem is that they’ve…[Read more]

How do you know how much separation there was before his injury? Honestly, they barely completed against each other. Fall camp of freshman season…reps all going to Cam and Bryson. One week of spring before Nate got injured, then one week of fall before Rose got injured. There wasn’t a lot of head to head competition. And Brandon was declared…[Read more]

I heard that Utah wanted him to shut it down, but Isaac wants to finish what he stated this year. Honestly, that’s kind of what you want in a QB. As an outsider and many many years his senior, it’s easy to say that he should get the surgery now….but I know 17 year old me probably would see things differently.

As to his potential….he’s impressive. I was most impressed with how he excelled under pressure. When you make the opposing team pay for applying pressure, it really opens things up. It’s one of Cam’s greatest strengths. According to PFF, he really kills it under pressure. Bryson and Nate obviously struggle in that area….

From what I understand, his next surgery is large enough that he’ll definitely miss Spring, and that will likely set him behind enough that starting next year would be very unlikely.

First, did it really take him that long? 2 weeks into spring ball??

Second, I think you severely overestimate how much time they have to prep players mid-season. Especially a player that needs to understand all of the nuances of the playbook. I’m not saying Rose is Him, but I also don’t think we know enough to be calling him out.

I think it was him, but I believe the injury was to the right side of his face…which wasn’t shown as well on the camera.

If the injury in question happened today, then it wasn’t Becker. I had heard yesterday that he wouldn’t be playing today….

The biggest reason he won’t be a 5 star is his size. Those ratings are projecting NFL potential, or at least 247 is rated that way. Elite speed could make up for height, but Isaac needs another 2″ to have 5 star potential without that elite speed.

His stats and play against high level competition could’ve easily erased want camp competition…[Read more]

Depth chart only takes into account season ending injuries. That’s always how it has been at Utah. The fact that Nate moved up on the actual depth chart is a big deal because things like that don’t always make it to the depth chart.
