What’s wild is that you aren’t just hiring a coach. Fisch is going to try to bring as many Arizona players as he can with him, as UW is bare bones right now. That means Arizona’s roster will be decimated.

So, you need an up and coming coach AND that coach needs to be able to bring a QB, OL, defense, etc with them.

Ha. I glad they had fun running up the score vs us. Payback will be a bitch for them.

Nope. We want the conference as easy as possible. There is no “long term Big 12”. In 2028-2030, every Big 12 team will be begging to get into the SEC or B1G. Wins = a shot.

We need to win as many games as we can. We need to make the playoffs as much as we can.

Anything else is irrelevant. Look at the P12. It was a hard conference. Anyone can…[Read more]

I agree with you there. Very interested to see how he does. He is taking over a well oiled machine and he’s a great coach. Can he maintain the recruiting? Because as a coach, he’s great.

UW is barren for talent. They currently have the #10 overall class…in the Big 10. DeBoer hasn’t recruited well and all of Petersen’s kids are leaving. Lake sucked at recruiting and DeBoer didn’t step it up either.

Gonna be a rough couple of years at UW going into the Big 10. UW might struggle to make a bowl game next year.

The smart thing…[Read more]

Here’s an Arizona related question:

With DeBoer all but headed to Alabama, what’s to stop UW from hiring Arizona’s HC and their HC taking all of Arizona’s top players with him to UW?

So much this. Our OL was at such a huge disadvantage last year.

Awesome! I loved my time there. Work hard, everybody is there to help you. My only regret, which is probably a lot of people’e regrets is this:

Put yourself out there. Take a couple of risks. Enjoy yourself. You are young and part of college is figuring out who you are. Go ahead and do it.

BUT, I’ll tell you what I tell my kids: Be the one…[Read more]

They are a good team. They lost to every team better than them.

They smoked us at home with our whole defense injured then ran up the score.

Good for them. We will repay them this fall. We are a much better team when healthy.

Payback will be sweet.

Reports out of USC was that he was awful.

I’m sure that played a part in it.

For those of you who downvoted me, why wouldn’t be the favorite in the Big 12?

We have the most talent.
We have the most stable and best coaching staff.
We are used to schedules a lot tougher than what we will face.
We have the best defense.
We have the best QB in the conference.
We are one of, if not the most experienced team in the Big 12.…[Read more]

I think if we had beaten Ohio State, Whitt was done. He had done all he could do at Utah. Now that we are headed to the Big 12, I think if we get to the playoffs he will be done.

Like you said, it has to be awful to be a coach of a college football team. So much garbage to put up with. If he makes the playoffs, he can retire knowing he took Utah…[Read more]

It sounds like the Seattle Seahawks are going to go after DeBoer hard.

I’m going to be a broken record on this…but why do we not deserve this credit?

We won the PAC-12 two of the last three years. We’ve been in the title game the last four full seasons before this one.

We had half our team injured. And we still had 8 wins. And beat USC. And took UW to the wire. We only lost to UW, Oregon, USC, Oregon State and…[Read more]

We are back to MWC days…well not that bad, but pretty close.

FOX will pick up some games. ESPN will pick up others. ESPN+ will have the rest. Hopefully they don’t not televise the shitty games, like when we play FCS teams.

We SHOULD be able to get all games on tv, but that’s not a lock anymore. The good news is, we should be a top team in…[Read more]

Honestly…Yassmin is irrelevant. He never really did anything for us. We have Kuithe and King and Suguturaga coming back. Also on the roster we have Bentley, a 90 rated TE from Snow College. An .87 rated TE who redshirted last year. The guy from UCLA.

I’m not too worried about TE. We have talent, we have bodies. We will be just fine there.

Man, our safety and CB room is getting a lot better.

CB: Snowden, Calhoun (a .90 freshman from Michigan), Johnson (.89 transfer from GT), and Vaughn who had flashes of greatness last year.

S: Gilman (transfer from Stanford), Hall (who looked really good in the bowl game), Ritchie (who the coaches love).

We are adding 7 CB/S freshmen as well.…[Read more]

If I was a transfer QB, I’d wait until after spring ball if I had any options. Wait until there is an injury and see if there is a better fit than what they have right now.

For sure. With Rising, Covey had 50+ catches a year. Vele had 50+ catches. Kincaid had 70.

Matthews was set to be the #1 receiver in our offense with Rising, on a team that should win the Big 12 and go to the playoffs. And instead he leaves that for Cal?

I dunno man. I dunno.

With how much Whitt loves Barnes, he has a better shot at Rising getting hurt and starting at Utah than USU.
