Nice video. Thanks for sharing.

I am not a cancel-culture guy. However, I think Ryan Smith needs to be careful. He should focus on his pro teams. Throwing millions at BYU and not Utah could backfire on him.’

Funny

ProudUte replied to the topic Funny meeting with a BYU fan in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

I tend to agree.

ProudUte started the topic Funny meeting with a BYU fan in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

I was at the store here in Utah County wearing a Ute polo shirt. A man said to me, “You are wearing a Utah shirt.” I responded, “Yes, I am.” He then said, “You guys should be very good in football. In fact, you should be ashamed if you don’t win the Big 12.”

He went on to talk about how good BYU will be in basketball and I agreed they had an…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Matt the BYU fan would have been suspended on the CB for his posts in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

I hate to see where college football is going. I liked being part of a the PAC12, a regional conference. I hate what NIL has become, and the portal has become a joke.

There will be 2 or 3 super conferences. I hope Utah lands in one of those conferences.

I really don’t care what happens to BYU. If they end up in a super conference with the…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Matt the BYU fan would have been suspended on the CB for his posts in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

If a Ute fan would have posted similar things about BYU on the CB – he/she would have been suspended and the post deleted.

Thanks, Tony for allowing freedom of speech. I think Matt completely believed in what he posted. However, in the end he was trolling and trying his best to irritate Ute fans with things like calling Whitt a douche.

I…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Utes to the BIG or SEC in the forum They So Poo Poo 5 months, 1 week ago

Wow, just wow.

Yes, CB gets more posts in an hour than we do here in a normal week. You cannot argue that.

Utah has developed into a solid football program and has a lot of national respect. I have no idea why you think Whitt is a jerk. This makes no sense to me. I guess if he is not placing BYU on a pedestal he must be a terrible…[Read more]

Another Prediction

Here is another guy close to college football who thinks Utah will end up in the BIG or SEC. I think that if we end up with two power conferences – Utah should be in the mix IMO. I may not be alive to ever see this happen.

Right now, we are in the Big 12. Let’s make the best of it.

Go Utes!!!

ProudUte replied to the topic Utah offers Hans Olsen's son in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

The funny thing is that many on the CB think that Hans is a Utah homer. Hans just speaks the truth, and sometimes it offends BYU and even Utah fans. He doesn’t try to sugarcoat things. When he sees something that is not working – he brings it up.

ProudUte started the topic Upcoming 60 in 60 (Speculation) in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

I know some of you think that the 60 in 60 is a waste of time. I think it is fun to see what the media predicts and to see what actually happens during the season. Obviously, they were way off last season due to injuries.

Which Utes do you expect to be in the top ten this summer? As for me:

Definite top ten
Rising
Kuithe
Barton
Reid

Possible…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Utah offers Hans Olsen's son in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

Hans is a former BYU player, and he is now their color guy. He played with Kalani. Obviously, he is a BYU fan. But, he has never been a Utah hater and has great respect for Whitt and Harding.

In my opinion, this kid would be a good get. We have flipped other BYU legacy kids, and I hope we can flip this kid. I know he is no Fano. I don’t expect…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic How I used my Utah fandom to get a job in the forum Misc 5 months, 1 week ago

A number of years ago I was applying for a fairly prestigious job. I got included in (with two other people) the final interviews. There was a group of four people doing the interview. The two who would ultimately make the decision were diehard BYU fans. The HR Director who was present in the interview, was a Ute fan.

At the end of a fairly…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Utah offers Hans Olsen's son in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

I have know idea where he will end up, but you can’t teach that kind of size. He needs to develop. if Utah gets him and he enrolls in January, we will get him in the weight room and start working on his skills. He already plays for a very good high school coach and program.

ProudUte started the topic Utah offers Hans Olsen's son in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

I heard that coach Harding gave a scholarship offer to Hans Olsen’s son. He is a big boy. I hear he is 6’7″ and 315 pounds.

We are quickly becoming Linebacker U. We have been very strong at LB for the last decade. Keep it coming!!!

ProudUte replied to the topic What would be the absolute WORST music to to play when the Utes take the field? in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

I think we should play a song from Mary Poppins when the opposing team comes on the field. 🙂

ProudUte replied to the topic What music would you play when the team comes on the field? in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

Nice! 🙂

ProudUte started the topic What music would you play when the team comes on the field? in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

Let me first say that I believe it should be up to the players. Whatever gets them pumped. I am old guy and my choices would probably not resonate with them.

That being said, my choices would be:

Eye of the Tiger
Take Me On (Music only)

Again, I am an old guy. What would you pick?

ProudUte replied to the topic Worst parts of the game day experience and how to fix them? in the forum Football 5 months, 1 week ago

It’s not just a Utah football thing. Admittedly it’s not a BYU thing. However, everywhere I have gone to games there are some overly drunk fans that take away from the game. The worst one was at a Utah State game in the early 1980s. But, I have seen it at Cal, Oregon, Michigan, Florida, etc.
