ProudUte replied to the topic As much as we like wringe our hands about this 3-0 offense in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
I have hopes that Nate Johnson will be our future. He certainly has athletic skills. He is very fast, but I don’t think he has developed into a great runner yet. He doesn’t break a lot of tackles, lacks total field vision, and doesn’t seem to be able to spin and fake when he is running. I think these skills can be developed. He has started…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Josh Newman on the status of Utah football in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
I won’t give you a thumbs down or thumbs up for simply expressing your feelings.
I think the coaches believed that Cam and Brant would be back for the season. We had a QB rooms with top recruits. I would not have gone to the portal for a QB (that’s just me). Now, as far as the tight end position goes – I would have gone hard after Holker. I…[Read more]

I hope for Rising’s future, that when he returns – he looks like he did against USC last October (prior to his first injury). I would like him to get a shot in the NFL. Regardless, he is a good man and has done a ton for Utah football. I will always be happy that he came to SLC.

ProudUte started the topic Whitt's presser today in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
The game on Saturday was methodical. We were not as explosive as we needed to be. Nate played well for his first start and didn’t make any glaring errors.
The defense was excellent. That has been our MO this season.
UCLA is a very talented team and it will be a tough game. He hopes that the crowd will be very loud this weekend.
There were…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Josh Newman on the status of Utah football in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
I agree with what Josh Newman wrote about the status of our football team.
Things have been far from bad for Utah through three weeks, but I agree with this notion that they’re not completely fine either.
Most of the trouble as I see it is the abundance of injuries, so to judge this team as currently presented is not entirely fair. On the flip…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Colorado at Oregon in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Tony, I agree with you. Oregon’s offense should be able to score at will. CU has a potent offense and will score a lot IMO. I predict 51-31. I think Coach Prime’s head will be spinning as he watches the potent, fast-paced Oregon offense.

ProudUte started the topic Utes back in the top ten. Do we deserve to be there? in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
First off – I respect those who say we do belong in the top ten and those who say we don’t. It’s just an opinion. It doesn’t make you less of a Ute fan because you have some doubts. My two cents.
We deserve to be there because of the team we have been the last five years and we are 3-0 this season. I think only Colorado and Utah have beaten…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic Winning in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Two things.
I do not care about CU until we play them in November. Coach Prime is the King of Hype. I don’t care.
We here are all Ute fans and have different expectations. It isn’t for me to judge.

Do you know when he will play?

ProudUte started the topic The defense will have to win games for us… in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Our defense is very solid and might be excellent but they have not been tested yet. I think they will be very good, but I am worried that they may be on the field too long.
Of course, our offense could be much, much better with Cam playing. However, I have no clue when that will happen. Without Cam, Kuithe, and Bernard – we are just not that…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Isaac Wilson blows up again in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Isaac Wilson had yet another great game last night. They beat undefeated Mountain Ridge 56-14. They scored 49 first-half points. Wilson threw for 5 TDs and ran for another. If you haven’t seen this kid play – he has a very strong arm and he is not afraid to run the ball.
In Corner Canyon’s only loss, they scored 42 points against the national…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic What do we know about Weber State in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Also, they have a return guy who has 5 returns for TDs. (Remember the last time we played Weber – they had a kickoff return for a TD.) We had better kick the ball into the endzone.
Weber is getting paid $650,000 to play this game.

ProudUte started the topic What do we know about Weber State in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
They are the 7th-ranked FCS team.
They scored more points against Northern Iowa (34) than our future conference partner, Iowa State.
They are a run-first team. They have a very good running back, Damon Bankston, who is averaging 7.5 yards per carry.
Some of their best players from 2022 followed Jay Hill to BYU.
Their weakness on defense…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Cam Rising interview in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Notes from his weekly interview (nothing too exciting).
Happy to be 2-0 as a team.
The offense did not get things going early and missed a lot of opportunities. We did not play a clean game. He wished he could go out there and play. The game proved we are resilient and we came back and won.
Cam was the one to tell Nate in the 4th quarter…[Read more]

The Idaho football coach said that they will play the Utes in 2026 as a replacement for Houston or BYU.

ProudUte started the topic Week 3 depth chart in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
So, here is the virtually meaningless depth chart. Whitt admitted that Maea would not be playing this week, yet he is shown as a starter. It does show Nate Johnson as the backup QB. So, there is something different. Outside of Bernard, who is out for the season, all of the injured players will be playing according to this. (We…[Read more]

ProudUte replied to the topic I wish the best for Kuithe in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
I don’t disagree. I just want is best for him. If playing to show what he can do is the best thing – then play. I agree that he will play when he feels ready. He said yesterday that he would play when he can perform at the same level he was last year. So, I don’t think he will play just because he can. He wants to contribute at a high level.

ProudUte replied to the topic I wish the best for Kuithe in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
I am not so sure. He was invited to the combine along with Kincaid. Other Utes who have been drafted did not get a combine invite. Most combine invitees get srafted. I think he may have been a 3rd round pick, maybe even better.
-
ProudUte started the topic I wish the best for Kuithe in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Kuithe has been a big part of Utah football. I think he may be the only Ute player who started during each of the four seasons that the Utes went to the PAC-12 championship game. He likely would have been drafted high after the 2020 and 2021 seasons. However, he chose to stay at Utah. He has been one of my favorite players. He and Kincaid…[Read more]

ProudUte started the topic Other things from Whitt on the coaches show in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
When asked about Cam, he said the status is the same. When the doctors clear him – he will play. He did say that Cam has been practicing at full speed for a few weeks and looks good.
Nate Johnson will get the start if Cam still cannot go. Johnson will have the whole offense at his disposal if he plays on Saturday.
He is not sure who will be…[Read more]
