The Miami Ute

There’s a lot of good coaches out there. Might want to look a little deeper than just former Utah players that in some cases, have ZERO coaching experience. Let alone filling up a staff with those types.

And how do you think Rowe would work with Scalley? Wasn’t he the leader of the “Scalley is a racist” movement once the texts became public?

contact on a rub route is okay as long as the receiver “acts” like he tried to avoid it. that was a great call poorly executed.

Ludwig has good plays at his disposal. He just doesn’t use them. Run the exact same play again. Flip the formation and immediately run the same play to the other side. Line up in the same formation and run a counter…[Read more]

It matters especially because of the optics of it. We are down right now and the vibe around the program says that as well. If we can finish the other half of the season strong, it will go a long way in keeping recruits and guys from transferring. And it will be appealing to future recruiting and transfers. So yeah us losing a 4☆ LT 6 games into t…[Read more]

Scalley wants an aggressive “Urban-like offense” I think he’ll have no shortage of candidates. Especially directing an offense in this conference. Which SHOULD be not difficult but Ludwig makes EVERYTHING difficult.

who needs NIL when you’ve got MILF

possibly this week per reports but you know who is being coy about it. if he’s dressed this week in pre-game, he probably plays but I’m trying not to invoke the dreaded GTD.

if potentially bringing someone in makes Wilson even think about transferring, then you have to do it. Otherwise you create the exact same situation Utah is currently in. Wilson could go down on any play and not having a qualified backup is always unacceptable.

It is now a professional sport in everything but name and needs to be treated as…[Read more]

We’re just discussing other openings. No one knows what he wants to do or even if he can ever get to the level those schools would want.

For me, his name and the endless discussion around him has been nails on a chalkboard and I don’t want to go through that anymore. It had gotten to the point that I didn’t want to watch or follow Utah…[Read more]

Sayers is before my time. Dorsett is probably the first great back that I would remember. I saw OJ but only his San Francisco year and Franco Harris was on the tail end of his career by the time I started watching football and understanding it.

As a kid, my parents would get me those anthology sports books that would be devoted to 8-10 players…[Read more]

I said “best” not only. Give me two RB’s that appear roughly equal in all other aspects and I want the one the defenders are never able to square up on.

Fifita’s coming back next year. I guess I should say he will be playing in college next year, with the school to be determined. So I wouldn’t count on the Arizona job opening.

I lived in Kansas for a few years and worked with the “other” all-state RB Sander’s senior year. They were both on the Kansas team for the Kansas-Oklahoma all star game and he showed me the tape once. HS, College and even the pros he did the exact same things and made everyone else on the field look like amateurs. In my prime I don’t think I…[Read more]

Whitt’s most successful QB recruits have all ended up at other positions. Off the top of my head: DeVonte Christopher, Chase Hansen, Britain Covey (technically), Brian Blechen but I know I’m missing a couple.

Nate Johnson could get himself into the league if he’d switch to receiver. JaQuinden was never the QB people wanted him to be and…[Read more]

For the kids who do the camps circuits, I think the ranking “experts” can do a pretty good job because they are actually comparing kids side by side. i.e. based on what I’ve seen so far from Wilson, low 4-star seems like they nailed his ranking. strong arm, good mobility but also some accuracy issues and he seems smaller than listed. If I’d been…[Read more]

Medically, theoretically and hypothetically cleared by surgeons. Hopefully back by UCLA.

Pretty sure Woods arrived at Utah with a partially torn ACL. And played his final game at Idaho on the injured knee but didn’t know the extent yet. Anyway injuries & Utah football 🤝 Sigh

For me, the best attribute a HS RB can have is the ability to avoid contact. Any truly talented RB can shrug off HS tacklers but kids whose whole game is based on running through someone don’t tend to go very far when they have to move up to defenders with equal skill.

But show me a mini Barry Sanders who never allows anyone to get a clean shot…[Read more]

He would have first been eligible for the draft after the 2022 season. If his promise showed out to be Booker level, he’d have been gone then. If he was still on the team long enough to finish out his eligibility we’d probably be calling him Khalil Tate jr. Incredible introduction that couldn’t be sustained

John White IV was also a transfer so you can go back to the beginning of P5 play. Probably even farther. Didn’t Matt Asiata go JC first?

The other part of recruiting rankings is they don’t look at what is around the player being evaluated. Tuttle is a perfect example since he got to throw to a 1st round pick (Olave). They were both rated 4 stars but if you did a look back ranking, Olave should have been a 5 star catching passes from a 3 star.

Huard was in an air raid system, had…[Read more]
