I hope we do what Notre Dame did after their loss last week to a G5 team. Sometimes the best thing that can happen to you in sports is to pull out a win when you played ugly. It serves as a wake-up call. I hope this is the case for Scalley and the D. Also, we need Reid back BIG-time!!!

Sorry, that does not explain the pathetic defensive effort.

I was shocked by how bad our D played today. Also, Baylor only has about 100 total yards at half time against a bad AF team. So, I don’t think we can say we played great D against the Bears.
I started to sip the kool-aid, and now I have thrown it up. As it sits now, my expectations have been lowered. I think we are probably 8-4 or at best a…[Read more]

Yeah, you are right on the pass to Kuithe. My bad!

ProudUte replied to the topic Isaac Wilson should get game ball for this one. in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
I agree. He was amazing with his check-downs. He threw high early on, but settled down. He now has gained some confidence.

Yes, Stanley has some drops. But, that does NOT excuse that defensive effort.

ProudUte started the topic Why do the stats only give Isaac 3 TD passes? in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
He had two in the first half, the shuttle pass to Kuithe, and the 4th-down TD pass. That makes 4. Maybe they aren’t counting the shuttle pass, but I am quite sure it was a forward pass.
My favorite was the pass to Lohner.

That defense will get destroyed next Saturday unless some significant changes are made.

Good – I think we found a good backup QB.
Bad – That was the worst defensive effort in a very long time.

ProudUte started the topic One of the most pathetic defensive efforts in the Scalley era in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Keep in mind that this is USU under the Pig Farmer. How is USU beating us up so badly?
The offense has not played great but they came alive in the last ten minutes of the half. Wilson is starting to gain some confidence. Yes we have two PIs and we are dang lucky to get them. They are running well and passing great against us. We need more…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic OnlyU lied about our OL in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
We can see if they improve but that effort for the first 20 minutes was terrible and so was the effort in the second half last week. They are nowhere near the best Oline in Whitt’s tenure.

You are very optimistic about Utah football. Probably more so than any other Ute fan I know. Good for you. I hope you are right!!!
I don’t think today will be as easy as you think, but I hope so. 🙂

ProudUte replied to the topic Poaching Jay Hill in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
The Utes would love to have Jay Hill, but I am quite sure that it won’t happen.
First – I am not sure if Hill would want to work for Scalley, not because they dislike each other. I just think that it would be awkward for Hill to coach under Scalley. When Scalley becomes head coach – he will need to be the guy in charge. (It will be his team and…[Read more]

The interesting thing is that Ollie Gordon is yet to have a good game this season. They have become passing team.
I like their passing game a lot. They put up a lot of yards last season, but had too many turnovers. They have seemed to clean it up. I get that they are only playing Tulsa, but Tulsa is not terrible.
I think our D will be tested…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Whitt in a 🚁 in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
True. He would be recruiting regardless. But, taking a helicopter from Logan personally…
If he was thinking of retiring – I think he would let Scalley make the final push. But, I admit that I don’t know anything.

ProudUte replied to the topic Gameday in the forum Football 3 months, 3 weeks ago
I really want to see Isaac gain confidence. Playing with confidence is so important in sports. A guy who plays with confidence (not cocky) is going to play much better than someone who is worried how he will play.
Back in the 70s, Utah’s QB was injured and the backup wasn’t getting it done. Coach Meek decided to play Safety, Steve Marshall.…[Read more]

Wow, sounds like you are older than me. I do not remember the day after Thanksgiving games. I assume they must have been in the late 50s?

ProudUte replied to the topic Whitt in a 🚁 in the forum Football 3 months, 4 weeks ago
Since Whitt is recruiting Jerome Myles personally – I’m guessing that he is not planning to retire at the end of this season.

ProudUte replied to the topic I hear Cam will dress but not start in the forum Football 3 months, 4 weeks ago
I don’t disagree, but that’s not Whitt’s style. He knows with his defense and a 17 point lead, if the offense does not give up the ball – he Utes will win.

ProudUte started the topic I hear Cam will dress but not start in the forum Football 3 months, 4 weeks ago
I have heard from a couple of sources that Cam is not practicing this week, so his finger can fully heal. But, that does not mean that he won’t dress. One source said they have a few plays in the gameplan for Cam if Wilson is struggling. However, the intent is to NOT have him play.
If you are looking for style points – you will likely be…[Read more]
