ProudUte replied to the topic What's our defense looking like? in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Our defense was indeed terrible at Tuscon last season. However, many of our best players were not able to play in that game. We looked bad, but I highly doubt we will look that bad when we play them in SLC in game 5 in 2024.
The way that Arizona ended that game is a disgrace and poor sportsmanship. The coach is gone, but Whitt and the team…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Welcome to the Big 12 in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Thanks for taking the time to come here and post. Since the schedule came out – I have been saying that our toughest game may be our first Big12 game at Stillwater. That’s not exactly how I wanted to start the conference season.
It seems that you guys should be tough with one of the nation’s leading RBs returning. He ran for more yards last…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Former Utes in the NFL in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Covey has done some kick returns and with the new kickoff rules, I expect him to do more.
Long-snapper is sometimes just a long snapper and sometimes plays another position. I honestly don’t know how many of the 32 NFL teams have a dedicated long snapper. You probably know.
Your detailed write-up on former Utes was excellent. I hope Huntley…[Read more]

Utah has a player in the NFL at every position group, i.e., QB, RB, TE, Oline, WR, Dline, LB. CB, Safetey, Punter, Kicker, returner.
I highly doubt that any other college has a player in every position group.
Go Utes!!!

ProudUte started the topic Super league projections based of data in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Utah comes in at a solid 15th ahead of Oregon, Texas, USC, etc. These forty teams will not be in a Super League because the list includes Boise and AFA. But, otherwise I like it.
Fans on the CB are discrediting the list like Trump discredits the 2020 election. “It cannot be true, because we are not on the list.”
Honestly, I…[Read more]

Do you want Cam Rising to come back for the 2025 season?

ProudUte replied to the topic Big 12 Insider talks Utah in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
I support a Utah – KState championship game. They do not play in the regular season, so it could be a fun game. It would be very fun if both were undefeated. However, I doubt the likelihood of that happening.

ProudUte replied to the topic Cam’s got 1 more year after this one in the forum Football 5 months, 3 weeks ago
I thought it meant that he could have another year if he played 4 or less games this year, but admittedly – I did not get into the details.

I totally agree. Watching games on TV just got much worse.

ProudUte started the topic Five game times for Utah announced in the forum Football 5 months, 4 weeks ago
Of course, our first game on Thursday is at night. The next two games are day games. Then, the two Friday games will be at night, including a late game at UCF.
Football is getting closer. 🙂

ProudUte started the topic Utah gets another QB in the forum Football 5 months, 4 weeks ago
Dallen Engemann, former Timpview QB and JUCO out of California, will be coming to Utah. I assume that he will be a PWO, but I don’t have the details. So, we get one more guy in theQB room.
I doubt that he will see action, but I like the idea of having another QB on the team.
Go Utes!!!

ProudUte replied to the topic The 2019 defense was our best defense ever in the forum Football 5 months, 4 weeks ago
You need to throw out the Texas game because we had key players not playing that game on defense and the offense was terrible that night. I am not sure that we had our heads in that game because of the implosion against the Ducks.
The USC game is interesting. They decided to throw deep all night long and Blackmon was not healthy in that game.…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic The 2019 defense was our best defense ever in the forum Football 5 months, 4 weeks ago
And I don’t think it is even close. I heard the other day that 12 players on our 2-deep played in the NFL. That’s amazing. We had three all-conference defensive linemen. Think about that. There are four defensive linemen, and there are 12 teams. That is just crazy.
The defense that season gave up an average of 269 yards per game and only 15…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Greg Flugaur talks about potential for Utah to B1G in the forum Football 6 months ago
I would prefer the BIG to the Big 12 for obvious reasons. That would be great. However, I would really prefer that the PAC 12 had not imploded. I don’t like the travel to the east coast. It will be costly for our “Olympic” sports teams.

ProudUte replied to the topic Kool-Aid anyone? in the forum Football 6 months ago
I like these guys, but they are definitely wearing crimson goggles. These guys say that this is the best Utah football team ever. I hope that will be true, but as of today – I don’t think so. 2004, 2008, 2019, and 2021 will be tough to beat.
I think we have the potential to be a very good team and make the CFP. However, I am not yet ready to…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Will our offense in 2024 look a lot like 2021? in the forum Football 6 months ago
In 2021, we had Rising throwing to three excellent tight ends. We often played three tight end sets in 2021. This season we have three stud tight ends again in Kuithe, King, and Lyons. We have a handful of other tight ends who can play as well. Of course, we don’t have Covey, but we do have Singer, Money, Pitman, et al. Someone will have to…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Rising's preseason ranking in the forum Football 6 months ago
Yesterday, Bill Riley talked about a list of the top incoming QBs for the 2024 college football season. Rising was ranked 16th on the list. Riley was upset. He feels Rising deserves much better.
I kind of get the ranking. When he plays in 2024, he will have not played in 20 months. He suffered a major injury. This injury could possibly…[Read more]

It ain’t over until the fat-lady sings.
Utah will still recruit him. Hopefully, Isaac Wilson tries to get him to change his mind.

Good for Rose for staying. I hate the transfer portal, especially with QBs. Who knows what his role will be in 2024. Regardless, I wish him the best going forward.

ProudUte replied to the topic Today’s LockedOn Utes Podcast in the forum Football 6 months, 1 week ago
Aloha, good analysis. I agree. UCF will be tough considering it is a cross-country game on a short week.
As of today – I think Utah would be favored in all 12 games. Do I expect them to win all 12? No. I don’t think we are so good, that we won’t stumble along the way, especially if we experience key injuries.
