The Lone Wolf

It’s not that we haven’t discovered it. It’s that we literally haven’t been able to talk shit for a decade.

Seriously? What are BYU fans honestly supposed to say? This rivalry is dead. As is the football program. Holmoe killed us in 2011 by botching Big12 negotiations. It’s over.

You’re a smart guy Tony. Sure it’s meaningful. BYU didn’t play a PAC schedule, but it wasn’t a Sunbelt schedule either. Kaufusi is a top 3 rounder.

Wait, the last four QB’s lost to Utah? I remember two. Nelson and Hill. Hill was great, Nelson was a bum. The two guys before that, Hall and Beck had three wins. Mangum is already as good as Hall was his sophmore year. Mangum will be one of the better QB’s you have faced. Unfortunately for you guys you have to deal with him 4 times.

What you guys don’t understand is that outside of your bubble nobody cares about Utah football. Wazzu is a much more appealing and entertaining program to the rest of the country. I hop this sinks in. It’s time for you all to get off your high horse. You aren’t as great as you think you are. The reality is that BYU and Utah are pretty comparable…[Read more]

Agree with the OP. Utehub is a good site. Much better than the cesspool that is Utefans.net.

Thoughts from a BYU fan…Whittingham, for some reason that is inexplicable to me, insists on running some weird variation of the spread with some elements of a between the tackles power running game thrown in. Whittingham has proven for the last decade…[Read more]

“We will be competitive again.” ?? And you aren’t competitive now?

Tony, you did get that great QB recruit. His name is Travis Wilson. Offers from half the PAC 10, elite 11 kid, big time measurables, good speed. He just wasn’t developed because of Utahs ridiculous revolving OC and QB coach mess.

Ah come on Moose. Yardage wise Utah was very competitive in that game. The game was statistically very close if not for the turnovers. You weren’t anywhere near as bad as the final score indicated, and I still think Utah is the best or second best team in the PAC. You still have a great shot at a NY6 bowl.

I’ll come clean. I am a BYU guy, but I…[Read more]

Cox will be third string next year.

38-9 Utes

Utah’s depth is great, but Paul, Carter, Booker, Norris, Hackett, and possibly Wilson, Aiono, and Asiata will get a shot in the NFL. It’s not easy to replace that kind of talent. Utah will win 6-8 games next year, which is good, but they won’t do what they have done the last two years.

You think next year is going to be better than this year? After losing Wilson, Booker, Covey, Scott, Asiaita, Norris, Whittingham, Paul, Poole, Thompson, Aiono, Carter, Hacket, and possibly Patrick? How is Utah going to be better? This is a once in a decade type season. Utah fans better be enjoying this.

It’s what Kyle does. He identifies talent early and develops it well. Hansen’s ceiling was highest at safety or linebacker. Kyle and Bronco both knew it when they were recruiting the kid. Both coaches gave Hansen the chance to compete at Quarterback, and Chase chose Utah knowing there was a better chance of him starting at Utah after Wilson…[Read more]

Hansen was never a Quarterback. Utah did a fantastic job in recruiting him. The idea the whole time was to let him come in and compete at QB then switch him to safety or backer if he couldn’t cut it on O. It was only a matter of time. The kid will make a great strong safety.

What happens next year at QB? Does Whitt go after a JC QB? If Hansen…[Read more]
