Rick replied to the topic Cole Bishop declares for NFL draft in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
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]

Rick replied to the topic MBB wins vs SUU last night in the forum Basketball (Men) 1 year, 1 month ago
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.

Rick replied to the topic Deivons waiver denied – the team is going to appeal. in the forum Basketball (Men) 1 year, 1 month ago
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.

Rick replied to the topic Levani Damuni Returning in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
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]

Rick replied to the topic IT'S GAME DAY!!!!! in the forum Basketball (Men) 1 year, 1 month ago
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.

Rick replied to the topic IT'S GAME DAY!!!!! in the forum Basketball (Men) 1 year, 1 month ago
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]

Rick replied to the topic I'm not sure why people are so hard on ludwig concerning QB development in the forum Football 1 year, 1 month ago
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]

Rick replied to the topic Zoobs are who we've always thought they were. in the forum They So Poo Poo 1 year, 2 months ago
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]

Rick replied to the topic Vele leaning… in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Tim Patrick is a lot faster than Vele. Or he runs better routes in order to get open more. Either way, he gets separation and Vele typically does not. Also, while at Utah, Tim had much less QB talent playing with him so it is hard to compare. The real question is what would Tim look like with Rising throwing to him? I think much better than…[Read more]

A lot??? I must have missed that.

Rick replied to the topic Vele leaning… in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
I love Vele but he is not an NFL caliber receiver. He does not have the speed and his size advantage in college will not play as well in the pros. He is not a guy who uses his size much in his play on the field.

Rick replied to the topic Rising turned down some big NIL offers to come back to Utah. in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Given how quick these figures came out after he announced on a weekend makes them seem like pure speculation with nothing backing them.

Rick replied to the topic Rising turned down some big NIL offers to come back to Utah. in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
How can anyone know what amount of NIL money has been offered to Cam for next season? This seems like pure speculation at this point. Am I missing something here?

Rick replied to the topic Thought U would want to see this… in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
Exactly. If Lincoln Riley is successful next season I could see him bolting to the NFL and if he fails I can see them firing him. Not a good ship to jump on.

Rick replied to the topic Washington game weather in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
In a rain game, I hope we concentrate on stopping their run game as priority #1. Keep all passes in front of you and hope they make mistakes with the ball in the wet weather. Offensively we MUST run the football. If we can’t run the ball, we are toast.

Does Johnson’s move to safety next year mean Vaki is moving to offense exclusively or does it mean that Bishop will enter the draft?

Rick replied to the topic Which QB do you take if you are an NFL GM? in the forum Football 1 year, 2 months ago
As much as I dislike Williams, he is NOT USC’s problem. Last I checked, averaging 31 points per game in their 3 losses is enough to win most games. It is the 45 points per game their defense allowed in those same 3 losses that is their problem. Williams makes all the throws. He is very Mahomes-esque in his ability to escape pressure and throw…[Read more]

Rick replied to the topic Total 2023 TV Viewers thru Week 7 – West Coast Schools in the forum Football 1 year, 3 months ago
The one team I can see backing up the truck is Texas A&M. They are near a point where jumping from Jimbo is an acceptable financial loss and they have a crap ton of money. Prime would kill it down there with the type of athletes he could attract to a program of that stature.
