Isn’t it interesting how realignment has changed our attention on other teams? It used to be we also kept track of teams like UCLA USC Oregon Stanford etc. Now I have zero interest tracking how those teams are doing – and instead now we’re following teams like TT Houston Baylor Iowa State and others.

So weird how realignment has done that in such…[Read more]

Ugh, I can’t stand seeing those video game final scores. The golden age of the NBA, roughly 1990-2002, was so fun to follow. I can’t understand how we got to a point where the league has de-emphasized defense so much.

Remember in the old days how we’d watch games and occasionally see a whistle for “illegal defense” – which was basically a zone…[Read more]

Agreed. Our current uniform is kind of interesting. It’s OK because it’s not overly gaudy like our unis for most of the past decade have been (especially the ones before the current unis). I like their simplicity.

On the other hand, they are bland and uninspiring. I’ve also said a zillion times I don’t like the arched UTAH type, it needs to be…[Read more]

Yeah I was virtually certain that he was out of eligibility, but I guess there’s some hope for the medical appeal. I think it’s a bit odd to enter the portal when it’s uncertain whether you can even have another year. I mean who’s gonna take a chance and sign him if he’s not even guaranteed more eligibility?

He must be pretty confident he will…[Read more]

Yes you are correct on that. The Wikipedia page on the 96-97 team incorrectly lists him as being a freshman that year.

I just love that 96-97 uniform. I sent these concepts to Harlan’s office, so let’s see if maybe they might be inspired by it.

Utah is under contract with UA until summer 2027. Let’s hope at that point they become a Jordan school!

Yeah I really love the red one, I think that one is prob my favorite.

You probably also noticed I made Utah a Jordan sponsored school instead of UA. Oh man I’d love that to be true!

I’d love to hear feedback from anyone else!

We could develop into a tourney team for 2025-26. It’s doable in a single year now more than ever.

Last year. We creamed ASU in the first round and then lost to Colorado in the quarters.

So am I. I expect to see a completely different look and feel with next year’s team, in both coaching and player performance.

I’m definitely envious of their recent success. They have won some big time games and it must be fun to be a fan of a good team like that.

But I’d still rather be a Utah fan at this point because we are still solid in football and it feels like basketball could be making a big comeback.

Good for BYU and their fans. They’re finally tasting…[Read more]

Don’t forget Utah is 3rd in NCAA tournament appearances in the western US, behind only UCLA and Arizona. Nationally, we rank 20th.

Hanno?

Grant?

Van Horn?

Fantastic hire!

This truly feels like a revolution for the program to return to its place among the elites in college basketball.

The ultimate tell of a troll! Upvoting themselves because they know others won’t.

😂

That’s exactly right.

Yes, Utah will need to offer more green to attract talent, and they will. But, as I said in another post, I’m not sure I even want to see Utah throwing a shit load of money at one single blue chip player, like BYU and so many others have. Because it’s my opinion that you’ll almost never get an adequate ROI for that…[Read more]

Frankly, I couldn’t care less what BYU is doing or how much money they are spending on their program.

What I care about is Utah getting the right guys in place, accumulating new economic support for the program and trusting the experts up there decide how to best compete. They don’t need our advice on how to do that.

I get where you’re coming…[Read more]

It’s been a not-so-secret fact that if Jensen is hired to be head coach the whales will open their piggy banks.
