Agree the 2011 loss to Colorado was inexplicable at the time but it is part of a growing sample size of underperforming relative to the talent on hand (2016 team for example). At some point any team in a 6 team division should almost luck into the division championship through a combo of decent play, talent and shear lucky random variation…[Read more]

Either one could be successful with the right coach and scheme. See the difference between Goff this year under the brilliant Sean McVay and the horribly mediocre at best Jeff Fisher. Goff looked like a total bust his first year with Fisher dropping hints that the kid was football stupid. Scheme and coaching matters with regard to potential…[Read more]

The South has always been open for the taking. To think not is revisionist history. There have been several seasons where our November swoon did us in, injuries or otherwise. We have failed to date but I am hopeful we will eventually win just from shear random variation (see Colorado 2 years ago)

Fits right in with silver spoon country club types who claim they are self made. It takes a village of disingenuous..

Embarrassing to say the least. If we are going to point to bowl games as an indicator like we did when we tore apart Alabama then we have to accept the fact the Pac 12 looks pathetic.

Perhaps with the abundance of returning talent we should be positioned to challenge for the South title next year? Let’s put it another way fellow Ute fans – at what point in the next 4 years do we get frustrated with extreme mediocrity? I would propose that if we don’t win the South after 12 full seasons in the Pac 12 then it would certainly…[Read more]

At least we have the Utes in their tradition of rarely losing a bowl game.

TCU is another team that typically gets it done with next to no 4 or 5 star recruits. Patterson is a great head coach.

DR is to the Deseret News what Sean Hannity is to Fox News. Alleged purveyor of conservative values but devoid of any factual information. Having said that his opinion doesn’t change the fact that net-net the move to Pac 12 was an overall boon to the school academically and financially.

The article was just food for thought. Why so sensitive to anything that is even slightly negative. He indicates there is no turning back but there has been tradeoffs in joining the Pac 12. This fact shouldn’t hurt your feelings for gods sake. I realize there has been tradeoffs but still don’t want to go back. No big deal. My opinion is…[Read more]

Your experiences remind me of the film The Day After Tomorrow – Bowl Edition 🙂

Certainly not cold by SLC standards but will be 15 degrees below normal for a December day in Dallas

Amazing that there would be any consternation amongst fans for a young kid looking after his own best interest when we have coaches leaving a 5 million dollar job for a 7 million dollar a year job and oh wait, missing their bowl games when they announce they are leaving for greener pastures. Most Schools and their fans don’t like it when their…[Read more]

If he does well perhaps our future head coach when Whitt retires or is replaced. If he succeeds at Florida he would bring some gravitas to the head coaching position at Utah, no?

negative feedback loop. If Tuttle bolts then you know this thing is sinking like a stone.

Do you mean move in coaching or move in recruiting or both?

I don’t think there is much action in WV.

I thought Ron Mexico was the fictitious name that Michael Vick used to conceal his identity.
