ProudUte replied to the topic We Can Still Win Without Cam in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
Our offense has some serious issues. I would feel a lot better about things if Bernard was playing. So, at the very least we will be without QB1, TE1, RB1.5, and our starting center and maybe WR2.
Can we win? Of course, we can but I think it is going to take an amazing defensive effort, no turnovers, and some good bounces.
We may lose and…[Read more]

I really like the uniform combination. I would prefer the drum and feathers over the block Us. But, otherwise, I really like the look.
Go Utes!!!

ProudUte replied to the topic Aren't we supposed to know… in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
He said he would know Thursday, but we wouldn’t know until we see who trots out onto the field. We will obviously know before then, but not much. I suspect he will tell the TV guys tomorrow in their meeting, but won’t allow them to make it public until Saturday morning.
I suspect ESPN/Fox will have a press release sometime around 10:00 AM…[Read more]

Yes, his surgeon is in LA. I assume that Cam and the Utah medical staff are talking to him via Zoom. It sounds like they talk almost daily right now.

ProudUte started the topic Kuithe has a bad cold on top of everything else in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
I just listened to his interview from Tuesday. He does not sound good.
He did say that he has a pretty good idea of when he will be returning to play. But, he still just says, “soon.” I don’t know how much he is practicing. Much has been said about Rising practicing at full speed. But, nothing has been said about Kuithe.

Notes from today’s interview
He says things are going good. He says he is getting the feel back as a QB.
The practice week is more normal. It’s nice to be in the huddle with the guys.
Still to be determined if he will play. After practice today, they will evaluate and make a decision.
Sounds like he corresponds with his surgeon…[Read more]

Great job Tony!!! I only wish we had more visitors and posts.

ProudUte replied to the topic Is Lander Barton the next Eric Weddle? in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
Weddle and Barton do not play the same positions and have different athletic styles. Barton can never be Eric Weddle. Again, the only comparison is playing on both sides of the ball. I do not expect Barton to return punts, play Corner, or QB.

ProudUte replied to the topic Why I want Oregon to crush Colorado in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
I am thinking more long-term and not just this season. I do not want Colorado to be a great football program. On the other hand, I dislike Oregon for abandoning the PAC12 as they did.

ProudUte started the topic Why I want Oregon to crush Colorado in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
Colorado is the media darling. They had 11 million viewers in the late-night game last week. That has never been done before. We are playing at the same time this Saturday as Colorado. Our viewership will be significantly less because of the CU game.
Coach Prime is getting all the attention and it will likely be much more difficult to recruit…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Is Lander Barton the next Eric Weddle? in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
I wasn’t trying to compare Weddle to Barton in any way except playing on both sides of the ball. Should Barton play some tight end? It’s not for me to say. Would I think it would be fun to see him play some tight end? Yes I do. Would I have him play a lot on offense? No.
By the way, Whitt said that Lander has the skills to play RB or tight…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Is Lander Barton the next Eric Weddle? in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
I get what you are saying. Whitt did not suggest that Lander would play offense this season, but very possibly before he leaves Utah.
That being said, we are probably deeper at LB than any other position right now, so who knows…

Nice article on Lander Barton. Whitt mentions the possibility of Lander Barton playing on both sides of the ball at Utah. Whitt said on his coach’s show last night if Lander wanted to play tight end – he would be the best in the PAC12. It would be fun to see Barton getting some reps at tight end.
I loved it when Weddle…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic QB reps in practice? in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
That seems to be the most logical. But, it would be nice to get QB1 more reps. However, we don’t know who QB1 is yet. Apparently, they will make that decision on Thursday and keep[ it secret until Saturday.

ProudUte started the topic QB reps in practice? in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
I understand that on a typical game week of practice, QB1 takes 80% of the reps. Well, there is nothing typical about our QB situation. Whitt tells us that Cam is practicing at full speed. So, what percentage of the reps is Cam getting in comparison to Nate and Bryson?
I doubt anyone on here knows (except possibly OnlyU). If Cam is the guy,…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Coach's Show in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
We had a good practice and no one got hurt today. The guys worked hard today.
We will have to be at our best to beat UCLA.
Takeaways from the first three games: The defense is playing well, especially the run. The offense needs to be more explosive. But, we are doing good at taking care of the football.
If Cam would have been ready, we…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Coach Harding's thoughts on recruiting California in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Coach Harding was asked about how they would recruit SoCal going forward. His response,”I am worried about how we are going to block the UCLA guys, I don’t have time to think about anything else.”
I got a kick out of his response.

I was very excited for our rematch with Florida. I was also excited to play Baylor. I was hoping we would see Cam Rising in the Weber game, so I was excited.
Now, with all the injuries and the many unknowns – my level of enthusiasm for the rest of the season has been somewhat diminished. We have 6 ranked teams coming up and with our current…[Read more]
