anyone remember the year lane got fired? trojans finished well under ed because they played “loose”. i feel like they are “loose” once again with all the adversaries they’ve faced.

been following this kid since he was jr in HS. seen him play a few times as his HS is down the road from me. first off, a lot of huskies disappointed in his talent progression at washington. second, he has a lot of character issues (read: hatfield) that a lot of people are concerned.

but im totally stoked he is on board.

Lost another one…to Arizona

well, I personally think DJ Foster with Jalen Strong was the best 1-2 punch i’ve seen in a long time. DJ is now at running back and they don’t have that much depth at the WR position.

but i do think booker needs 150 + yards for us to win. i lack confidence in our pass game and don’t expect much.

“Todd Graham is a an uberdouche, the fans are megadicks, and their stadium is about as shitty a facility as I’ve seen at the college level (let alone NFL).”

I COMPLETELY AGREE !!! I hate Graham more than anyone else and I’m waiting the day he gets fired. He completely screwed PITT over.

we all know USC wants a sexy hire. KW is not sexy. In fact, he’s quite boring.

hey westslope – if you ever get out on the water and need an extra angler to pay the petro, hit me up !

Jayce Johnson – 4 star recruit. Saw him play a few times in LA. Doesn’t have the greatest footwork, a bit slow, mid range shooting is not good. But he fills the void inside the paint.

his mechanics looked awful. throwing on his back foot 1/3 of the time. he was anxious half the time in the pocket when he had the most time in all the games I’ve ever seen. booker and the defense won this game.

i have a love/hate with LA. the sports scene is lacking; UCLA/USC fans are a little different from Ute fans. i fly fish in salt water because that’s all we have. people are obnoxious and the traffic is horrendous. public transportation is for weirdos.

but i can’t live in Utah either.

there is logic to that. these analysis have to pick their top 10 based on the body of work thus far. it’s not about the season, but about what they’ve done.

…but he’s still a douche.

Kannel is a douche. He’s never said anything nice about the utes. This is even prior to our number 5 ranking.

That’s cool. I’m tubing strawberry on Sunday. Thought if you had gears you can head up there with me. It’s great fishing this time of the year!

Hey @westslopecutthroat – do you fish when you come back to utah?

2 years eh? so is it like an LDS mission you’re doing? ; )

Actually, we couldn’t ask for a better played out situation then what really happened; ‘furd beats usc, usc beats asu, asu beats ucla, and arizona falls apart. i don’t think it really matters now. we just need to control what’s on our plate. the gods have been nice.

I actually make the trek to SLC every home game. But let me know if you guys get a USC tail gate going. Would love to connect with local utes.

didn’t ND change to stickers this year?

Charlie Strong won’t get fired after this season. If anything, he might try and get out himself before the inevitable happens (but then that forfeits his lucrative out clause). The word is that the booster are still behind him.

He did have top 10 recruiting class.

let’s not embarrass ourselves by thinking we are parallel to Texas.

It was indeed a lower score then expected (62 total points, and expected was 72). I think due mostly to Wazzu’s defense improving drastically (Cal’s defense got better too). But that’s the point – You stop the run game and their air raid is not as effective. Exactly what Wazzu did.

I pose another question – is Utah secondary as good as…[Read more]
