Relative to hype on Mikey, he was underwhelming. Look at his stats. 261 total yards receiving. 4.4 yards avg punt return. 20 yards avg. kick off return. Zero touchdowns. Zero. How is that not underwhelming considering he was hyped as the best WR recruit we have had in years and the second coming of Covey? I found him to be very pedestrian and…[Read more]

I think you will see Tao move to safety. This is a pretty good looking starting team. I worry about depth, especially after this season. Hopefully we will start seeing some fruits from the portal very soon!

Best of luck to Johan! He caught a break this season with all of the DE injuries and he made the best of it. Given all of the injuries this team faced this season, I do not blame any player who has next level talent to leave for the league. You never know when you will be the next injured player.

As for the transfers, very few of them…[Read more]

Texas could have been called for holding on almost every pass play. I saw several UW players getting choke held and they called nothing. Do not complain about a questionable PI call in this game when Texas got away with murder in the trenches all night.

Are you serious? JJ is a big back who does not use his size. He lacks vision. He has very limited lateral movement. He runs high which usually contributes to his fumbling issues. JJ is not a top 10 running back in Utah history and I would probably say he is not even a top 20 running back. I respect him switching positions and I do believe he…[Read more]

The one thing that I question with all of these seemingly inflated figures is where did all of this money all of a sudden come from? Was all of this money just waiting in the wings ready to be spent once NIL came about? Are companies cutting back their normal ad spends and sponsorships they did prior to NIL? I am not seeing any of that and so I…[Read more]

He seems to be very skilled at entry passing, which is NOT a strong capability on this team so far this season and I like his quickness. His shot scares me a little but so too does Rollie’s. I am just glad to see we have a quick, athletic point which will help us down the stretch. It is one of this team’s most glaring weakness and gets exposed…[Read more]

It may also be a function of him not being able to perform at the combine or pro day due to his injury. Not sure but that would make some sense to me.

It’s funny to think that he would not have even been a starter this season if O’Toole and Fillinger were healthy.

Best of luck to him. Hope he gets drafted.

I love Cole and I hope he is making the right decision for himself but I have doubts as to where he will land in the draft. There are a lot of safeties in this year’s draft. He had some great moments this year but he also had some not so great moments like the Colorado game TD he gave up because he misread the play. I don’t see him going any…[Read more]

It was like watching two different games from the first half to the second in terms of how the refs called the game. However, if we do not improve our perimeter defense by Saturday, the Zoobs are going to torch us.

If you take away all of their banked 3’s we win by double figures! I have never seen a team chuck up such horrible shots only to see them bank in. Several of them were at or near the top of the arc! I thought our D was not good at times and it should give coach a lot to hammer them on this week in prep for the Zoobs.

We need a PG that we can use against teams with quick guards. It was exposed in the Houston and St. Johns losses. Worster is very effective against bigger PGs and ones that lack speed but gets in trouble with speed. It nullifies his size advantages.

I would love to see Damuni improve his lateral quickness and overall speed to the ball in the off-season. He is a really good north and south run stopper and a pretty vicious hitter. He just seemed to be a step or two slow on plays outside the tackles this season. I am very happy he is coming back though and I know he will be improved.…[Read more]

I thought Keita on the boards was huge in the second half. I am not against Brandon taking outside shots but when he has a clear path to the basket and he pulls up for a jumper his coach should maybe have a conversation with him about it. Bad decisions unchecked will only lead to more of them when they really count.

Meh. Good luck young man.

Maybe one reason Brandon didn’t get going was his shot selection. He stuck one turn around jumper early on and then it seemed like that is all the shots he was trying to hit the rest of the night. On one play in the second half, he back cut a gut, got the pass, then pulled up and shot a 12 foot jumper when he had a clear path to the basket! You…[Read more]

I think there are pros and cons of Ludwig. I have been one who has seen the good and bad of his abilities over the years. I would say that this year is probably his best accomplishment. He got us to an 8-4 record largely with Bryson Barnes as our QB. Don’t get me wrong. I love Bryson and I love his story but he is NOT a P5 level QB by any…[Read more]

I also don’t think it is “bashing” the Big 12 when fans on here are lamenting the destruction of one of the most storied athletic conferences in the country. Would any Ute fan want to stay in the PAC 12 as it was previously constituted over the Big 12? Hell yes they would! That is not a knock on the Big 12 but I do say that I find their fans to…[Read more]
