That’s tough. I must admit that Utah sports has been the biggest rif in my nearly 50 years of marriage. But, it did not come to divorce.

Best wishes as you start over!

My dad has been gone for over 40 years. I still think about him often and am grateful for the years we had together. He was a great man in so many ways.

Yes, life is full of ups and downs. We all face challenges. I just hope to find the strength to handle mine.

Best wishes to you and your parent.

I think the potential is there. Now, he needs to work like his older brother did to become the player he can be. I would like him to get the surgery he needs, learn to be a good teammate, work with Beck’s brother in the offseason and become a stud QB.

It is difficult to build depth at a position when everyone wants to be the starter. Even Penn State who is playing the CFP has lost their backup QB t the portal. That could be a disaster if their starter goes down against SMU.

I hate the NIL and portal the way that it is now working.

We also picked up UNM RB NaQuari Rogers. He was RB2 at UNM, but his YPC stat is not bad.

We now have a complete RB room with Mitchell, 2 Freshmen, Mike Washington from NM State, Parker, and Rogers. I am not sure if Andrews will stay at RB or go back to LB.

Steve Clark from the late 70s/early 80s was an All American DT. He is at least an A if not A+. He played on the offensive line for the Dolphins.

Didn’t Luther Ellis move to tackle his senior year?

This is huge. We needed this one.

I heard that we also got a RB from UNM (not the starter).

Our RB room is starting to fill out.

Oregon is the obvious pick, but I agree with you on a darkhorse pick. However, I heard that ASU lost a bunch of kids to the portal.

I probably won’t watch an entire game because I will be attending grandkid games this weekend. But, I will likely tune in and watch parts of the games.

Probably Jackson Bowers from BYU. Utah recruited him before he went to BYU and now he is in the portal.

He played in 5 games in 2021 for Arizona. I think the max you can play and still redshirt is 4. So, he may just barely miss getting one more year of eligibility.

Looks like a nice pickup.

Based on what I have seen – I would say start Dampier this season and give Wilson a chance to learn and grow. Wilson was a great runner in high school. He ran for 200 yards in the championship game against a good defense. The RPO may be better for his strengths.

His yards per catch is amazing at almost 25 yards. He just has one year to play. I don’t like that, but I guess this is the game we now have to play with the portal.

Here is a link to the Dnews.

Wilson Returns

I am going to resist making any comments until at least after Spring ball.

Go Utes!!!
