Phatmanandy replied to the topic Glad we didn’t waste NIL on Cormani McClain in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
If I remember correctly he chose a walk-on at Florida because they were full on scholarships but he was getting some multi-million dollar NIL which would obviously be more than enough to pay his education. I was bummed he didn’t pick us the first time and then again the second time. However I think the Utes did their due diligence on him and…[Read more]

You can pick up Disney +, Hulu and ESPN + For like $19.99/month. It’s what I have and seems to work out well.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic What music would you play when the team comes on the field? in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
The VT, Enter Sandman intro gives me chills every time I watch it. Literally every person in that stadium is jumping up and down, even those on the field. I wish Utah had something like this.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Worst parts of the game day experience and how to fix them? in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
-For me I would love adding a lighting system. There have been countless away games that I’ve been to where the lighting pregame ignites the crowd, combine that with a better intro song, a la “WVU with Enter Sandman” and we would be golden. I would love to see “Seven Nation Army” intro as the team is walking out to the field, lights going on and…[Read more]

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Which game are you most looking forward to this fall and why? in the forum Football 4 months, 3 weeks ago
I’ve booked my flights and hotels to both the OSU game and the UCF game. Super excited for these matchups, they both should be great opponents.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Last 2 Games in the forum Football 5 months, 2 weeks ago
I’ll be at the UCF game and I am absolutely pumped for it. I have a feeling it’s going to be a blood bath. Short week, holiday weekend, prime time FOX game, etc., We could very well have the BIG12 locked up by then as well. Either way I’m excited.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic State of Utah MBB in the forum Basketball (Men) 5 months, 3 weeks ago
I don’t recall where I heard it from but someone on the board or maybe it was on Ute Nation board had mentioned that the coaching staff had pushed Exacte out or at least had advised him he should enter the portal. Hearing that was more shocking than him choosing Bowling Green. Makes me think that there were some underlying issues involved with the…[Read more]

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Keba Keita enters the Portal in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 1 week ago
Was looking at the rules and supposedly as long as you have sent an email, text, phone, call, letter by owl, etc., ;anything with a time stamp that says “I intend to enter the portal” before the deadline then you can file the paperwork at a later date.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Last Game of the Season in the forum Football 6 months, 1 week ago
Already booked my hotel, rental car and flights for this trip. I’m excited for the game. I definitely feel as if it could be a trap game. Hopefully we already have the conference game rep wrapped up by then.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Deivon Smith enters the Portal in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 3 weeks ago
Yeah this is no bueno. Utah is going to be the laughing stock in the BIG12 in Basketball. Sucks to see how far it has fallen. I absolutely hate NIL and the lack of control there is. I’m all for players getting paid but there has to be a cap on either the player or the team “salary cap”

What a shitty day for Utah basketball

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Deivon Smith enters the Portal in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 3 weeks ago
The moment I saw the rule for instant eligibility be made I had a strong feeling this was possible. Any sort of momentum we had going into next year is all but shot. I miss the good olde days of Runnin Utes basketball.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Anthony Woods in the forum Football 6 months, 3 weeks ago
I was at the Crimson Collective event before the spring game and asked him how he was healing. He didn’t have any boot on or knee brace when walking around. He also said that he was good to go and would be back in the Fall. Obviously he could just be saying that but visibly he had no injuries. He was sitting and standing to take pictures with fans…[Read more]

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Caleb Lohner in the forum Basketball (Men) 7 months ago
I was Caleb’s manager at Lowes for about a month. Dude only stuck around for 3 weeks back then as well.
However he does have talent and BIG12 experience, I think he’d be worth a look. -
Phatmanandy replied to the topic Mikey Matthews transfer reason in the forum Football 7 months ago
I think the primary reason he came was because he saw the passing offense from the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Last year was a total fluke in the system. It happens when you have a 3rd and 4th string QB. Totally bummed that he decided to move on, he filled that Covey role nicely and I think he would have had a big year this year. Oh well. I’m going to…[Read more]

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Discussion Topic: Big 12 Foes in the forum Football 9 months, 2 weeks ago
I also feel that with the world of NIL now and how much of a pain it is for coaches I can’t imagine some of these “old” coaches sticking around much longer. It has to be exhausting for all

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Wow…worst crowd of the year or so I thought in the forum Basketball (Men) 9 months, 3 weeks ago
My wife and I work in SLC and live in Saratoga Springs. The weeknight games are so hard for us to make because we have two dogs as well that need to be let out. So depending on schedules of our work on those days sometimes we can make them sometimes we can’t. I either always sell or give away my tickets to ensure someone will go. Sold my pair last…[Read more]

Phatmanandy replied to the topic My (too early) look at 2024 Utah football in the forum Football 10 months ago
The killer is that every off-season we hear “this is the best o-line we’ve ever had” and at least for the first 6 games it’s just a constant cluster. The Oline definitely scares me a bit this next season.

Phatmanandy replied to the topic Ja'Quinden 👋👋 in the forum Football 10 months, 2 weeks ago
I hate this. While He was injured most of the year and even in the bowl game he was absolutely the best offensive player we had this year. It kills me that he is leaving this team, not what Ty and Aaron would have wanted in my opinion. I’m really not liking the direction that college athletics is going with the wild wild west of transfers and NIL.…[Read more]
