      Thaddeus, also known as Jude in the New Testament. St. Jude is the patron saint of “Lost Causes” so we got that going for us.

      Odd for a Utah team to take the name of a California ski resort.

      If you look at the successful coaches in the FBS they all seemed to have moved up through the ranks staying at the college level having served at low-paying roles as “graduate assistants” and “analysts” to get started rather than getting established in the HS coaching ranks. That said, having a guy who knows Utah HS football from the inside might be great for recruiting, assuming he’s respected by the other HS coaches and not despised for his success (I don’t know in this case). As you said he seems to know QB development well, hopefully his methods will translate to FBS College level — there are things you can get away with in HS that won’t fly in FBS due to speed, complexity, and talent in the FBS college defenses.

      Woman who prepares and serves the sideline charcuterie board.
      Actually, I always wondered if she was actually 20-something coed but just has a June Cleaver middle-age hairstyle.

      Not a fan of GoFundMe, so venmo. I run a group (not sports related) on a system called “groups.io”, they are able to set up fundraisers using Stripe as the payment processor (any Visa or Mastercard). There is a small processing fee on the order of 2-3%. Paypal can probably do the same for you.

      Good find, it’ll be interesting to see how the logo and mascot (Wooly) may differ from the Lacrosse team. Kinda looks like stuff from Univ of Alabama football with more prominent tusks (cue Fleetwood Mac).

      Interesting path, we’ll see how long he lasts in SEC. A lot of competition, even within the Oklahoma QB room with Jackson Arnold and Hawkins returning, now Niu entering and possibly Mateer from WSU – rumors, only. Not enough snaps for all those guys unless they’re very patient.

      Back in those days, watching football was for mainly socializing and not so much to live-or-die over whether the U was flashing afterward. Utah was primarily known for basketball.

      Second half, TSPP finally figuring out that OSU doesn’t have much of a run defense.
