There has been a talent gap for years now. With NIL being so out of whack, I honestly think this team is where Utah will be in Hoops unless we get some mystery donor, which I don’t see happening. NIL seems justifiable for football cause it’s a cash cow when schools invest. Gone are the days when you could have a tyrant as a coach, screaming at…[Read more]

He cheats at golf. That’s where he lost me.

Roughly $171,000 for the win too according to the NFL CBA.

Agreed on you points there. It is a pretty easy get to LA, the Bay Area, heck even the Oregon schools with plenty to fit in beyond the game. I’m considering going to the UCLA game, then spending a day or two on the coast over the holiday weekend. Nothing else though, frankly RES is becoming too pricey for the experience it used to be when USC came…[Read more]

You know it hurts when the dude still can’t talk about it without squirming and looking uncomfortable. I miss those days…

The kid can play. Dare I say he’s a win away from being considered elite with a massive upside. Frankly, he made the right choice by not coming to Utah and then transferring to LSU. Utah was trending in the right direction to secure a top-flight quarterback over Cam’s two Rose Bowl seasons, but the following two-year debacle will make it…[Read more]

I’ve never wanted more to have a Ute pick off a quarterback in a single game. Go, Cole!

^^^^^

Comes down to perception. Personally, I don’t think he’s a Nazi but the outcome of what I’d call a poorly chosen gesture at the wrong place in time definitely elicited emotion from people on the left and far right. I’m your typical run-of-the-mill American who tends to hate government, both its bloated ineffectiveness and increasing privacy…[Read more]

I’d move jobs to double my salary and currently at the best job of my life, even commute to Provo. Just sayin’.

On a side note, Branden Carlson would have been the 3rd leading scorer for the Utes tonight but he scored them for OKC against the Jazz, I guess those don’t count. Frankly, I had no idea he was actually on OKC and playing…

It’s hard for me to see how any team stops OSU. I’m hoping for a good game tonight, I don’t seem to hate Texas as much as Alabama or Georgia but that’s just me feeling like they have an attitude of “we should be in the playoff just for being Us!” kind of feel.

IMO experience (and I’ve had a ton at this), alcohol is a complete disaster and can quickly overtake your day-to-day life. As I’ve grown older I’ve tried to maintain my active lifestyle, last check-up with blood work my doctor asks “I see you drink a lot, your counts show it. You’re going to want to cut waaay back if you want to keep playing…[Read more]

It’s reality, now…. Kinda like Bitcoin when people called it fake money.

NIL

It’s sustainable through having 1 billionaire donor that is crazy about hoops and wants to create a mini G league at his Alma mater. For BYU, not for most public institutions. I still am confused as to how the donors monetize their donations but when money doesn’t matter (essentially they are throwing it into a raging fire with no monetary…[Read more]

100% agree

I maintain NIL benefits schools like BYU, Notre Dame, USC more than public institutions. They avoid being audited by a state legislature that gets pissed that their school somehow got left out of a conference.

My prediction is that Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter will not be playing in any bowl.

Thanks for posting that link. No doubt Cal fans should be more pissed than Ute fans over that. My Best friend hate burns for the ACC refs, Miami, anyone associated with that conference with the power of a thousand suns… still. Plus, being from Cal and a science grad he wants to use their patented Cyclotron to level the ACC athletics office.

My best friend went to Cal and has a family full of BYU fans. He pays attention to the Y/Utah rivalry. He hates both equally but has always been pretty objective and opinions are spot on because he’s an outsider looking into it. After the game he mentioned the hold in the context of the Cal v. Miami game where the Miami defender clearly hit with…[Read more]

I guess that’s what the kids call it now…. I do know she raked over Blake Griffin pretty well.

I’d heard a little about Cole but nothing really jumping out. Interested in seeing how he fares in the crazy world of portal QB’s.
