I don’t know if we are the only fanbase that does this, well I know BYU does it as well…so I don’t know if this is a Utah thing or what, but it’s weird.

Cam is good. Really good. And he got hurt. And he hasn’t played yet. And Whitt thinks he should have. And Cam thinks he shouldn’t have.

That’s it. We don’t have to do these grand gestures of…[Read more]

You are nuts companero. The day Whitt retires is the day this program takes a HUGE step backwards. NOW, being in the Big 12 helps us because it isn’t as good of a conference. There is no USC, Oregon, UCLA, Washington, Stanford in the Big 12 so it will be easier to survive.

But we don’t Whitt to go. Not yet.

Alex is the Utah GOAT.

How is this even a question?

I have supported Whitt giving Rising every opportunity to play, as we desperately need him.

BUT, knowing what I know now, if I could turn back the clock, I’d institute Whitt’s new rule before the season started: If you aren’t going to play on Saturday, then no reps during the week.

Utah isn’t Rising’s training pad to prep for the NFL. Utah is…[Read more]

This article doesn’t clear anything up.

We have all known that Utah thinks Rising should play and one doctor thinks Rising shouldn’t play and that is who Rising is listening to.

The real question is: Why does Utah think one thing and Rising think another? Someone lied to the other party about what expectations were.

And Whitt has been here a…[Read more]

I think Whitt’s secrecy hurts him more than helps. For example, is everyone knew the extent of Rising’s injury, no one questions him.

If we could go to fall/spring camp, he’d know if Rose was good or not and the question of “should Whitt have gotten a transfer QB” would be gone.

I also think expectations would be tempered if we could see pract…[Read more]

I don’t agree with this at all. If Whitt came out of spring ball and felt good about Rose and Rising was supposed to be back, why would you go after a transfer QB?

I mean…Rose was our backup before he lacerated his liver…

This is what I don’t get. Utah invented the RPO with Alex Smith. And we have a QB that could excel at it.

Yet we hardly run it. It’s mind blowing.

I think you change #1 to:

Pray that Rose gets healthy and quick.

Johnson is a great athlete, he’s a super young and inexperienced QB, and he just ain’t it this year.

If we want to get to 10 wins, it won’t be with Johnson. If we want to get to 8 wins, it won’t be with Johnson. We need someone not named Johnson and Barnes.

Rose is all we have left.

::golf clap::

Cause the pig farmer can’t throw.

Eh, I think this is a little overblown. The coaches only get 20 hours a week, and they developed Rose. And then Rose got hurt. Johnson was supposed to be the scout team QB this year and be ready for next year. It’s just bad luck.

If Cam plays, we win big.

If Johnson plays, it’s another 14-7 game.

Oregon St is so overrated.

We are playing an SEC schedule this year. Ton of ranked teams. Ton of overrated teams.

The question is, are we overrated or not? Because every game is winnable.

Unless the PAC modifies the contract with the remaining voting members. That is key to all of this. Who is allowed to vote?

Because right now, you have 8 members of the PAC who haven’t left.

DJ Uigalelei sucks. Look, there is a reason why he isn’t at Clemson anymore. There is a reason why he is at Oregon State.

And it’s not because he is good.

If we had Cam, we’d roll Oregon State, just like we did last year. Because our offense is so limited, the game will probably be closer than it should be, with a shot at us losing. That’s why…[Read more]

If we give all the reps to Nate, how many wins do we have this year? Best case and worst case?

I think that is where we disagree.

I think you are saying to give Johnson all the reps so we can lose to Oregon, USC, UW, and probably OSU. BUT we might be able to beat Cal, ASU, Arizona and Colorado. Whereas if we don’t give reps to Johnson, we lose to OSU, Oregon, USC, UW, Colorado and maybe Cal and finish with 6 wins.

I think any season…[Read more]

It will be interesting to watch. No on in a million years thought the PAC-12 would go away. And hell, if Colorado doesn’t sell out for 2 million…it might still be here.

I bet there isn’t even dissolution terms in the contracts, that’s how crazy all this is. Who would have ever imagined USC would bail and go be Ohio State, and Michigan and Penn…[Read more]
