No, I don’t think so. I think it’s mostly the ACC uncertainty and Whit’s opinion that we will be heading to super-conferences sooner rather than later. I think another time he said it could be 5 years, but as fast as a few years depending on how the dominoes fall with the ACC GOR and schools exiting (FSU lawsuit is followed by 6 other schools…[Read more]

Craig James can pass the white powder for the secret elixir

Well, that’s a hot take (‘he’s been ok’ – just #9 PFF ranked TE in the NFL as a rookie). But I get the sentiment, just think it’s a little too far. We have long emphasized 11 and 12 packages, but only more recently have passed to/featured TEs more (Ludwig). Fans usually only notice them when they are star receivers, but they play an important role…[Read more]

The school doesn’t negotiate the NIL deal. They connect them with folks like the Collective and they do know and understand what the offer may work out to be, but it’s more where agents and collectives/endorsers come in. I think that could also be quite fluid and maybe stuff like, ‘NIL up to …’ But then others could come in (someone wants a…[Read more]

ah nice – I went there for grad school. Re-reading your other post, you ARE in grad school (not past like me). Makes sense. Have fun and hook ’em.

I think we might have got the WR and S through the portal or signing today. I think we probably are good at Safety for 2-deep (Ritchie, Hall, Allen with Tao and Snowden at NB), but good to have additional depth. We signed a bunch of DBs (8-9?). Always hard to tell with FR WR, but 2 borderline 4* is a good sign.

Currently, we sit at 53 (247) or 57 (rivals) in overall rankings.

We sit higher when avg rating is used (around 30). Does seems a little lower than years past, but we could get a bump if we get some uncommitted targets or a few more transfers based on lingering needs. Solid year. I have to remind myself that the transfers will be more impactful…[Read more]

Yes, depending on the rating service. Rivals says 4 4-stars. 247 has 2 (the WR’s are 89, 86 with Hunter and Kash at 88 so just below 4-star [>90]).

We did make an offer to that Raiola guy that was UGA flipped to Neb. But probably everyone did 😉

Hunter got Dec offers from Texas and TAMU and he is from TX, so good to keep him.

I think so. I think transfer/portal guys are coming in more experienced and are different enough to list separate than HS commits.

Verbal Commits to go:
– Zacharyus Williams (WR)
– Jeilani Davis (S)

Offers with no commitment yet that we are still in the running for:
– Lamar Radcliffe (RB, CA): 6-2/225, 3-star (87) –> 247 has Utah as the favorite
– Kinilau Fonohema (Edge, UT): 6-5/220, 3-star (87) –> BYU, Utah, Ore St., Wash St., now projecting BYU (60% confidence)

fax machines are hard to find 😉 I kid.

You have JHD on both lists. I don’t know how that works (he does show up on signing day) but he’s probably better classified as a Transfer rather than a FR.

Does anyone know if any of the signees are mission kids (so wouldn’t expect to see them next year)?

And if we need a backup RB for injuries …

I thought I saw his dad say something a couple days ago that indicated it’s more than likely he returns. Can’t find a link though. /shrug

Now signed. 1:05/1:10pm.

Bouwmeester & Becker (with Cheeks as backup): kicking game is down. Let’s bring some awards back to Utah

I like this. Have the outs. Have the ins. Would have been nice to have our own injury report pinned …

Anyone know the status of Zacaryus Williams. Signing event later? He’s one 4-star left to officially sign – David Washington (also WR) is signed. Sounds like Isaac and Kash will send theirs in later?

Reverse Vaki? Play RB and help out at Safety if needed? 😉
