LongDuckDong started the topic Who you hoping will be QB1? in the forum Football 4 years, 10 months ago
New QB next year. Who are you hoping it’ll be? Can we run a poll or just pipe in with your pick?
I don’t have a vested interest but here’s who I’m aware of…
Drew Lisk
Cam Rising
Jason Shelley
Jake BentleyI’d probably give it to Cam Rising.

LongDuckDong started the topic 2009 Alabama = 2019 Utah in the forum Football 4 years, 10 months ago
Remember when Utah beat Alabama in the Sugar Bowl and every Ute fan thought the Utes had arrived, had beaten a legitimate national power in a major bowl game and that the Alabama had tried their best but fallen way short? But, in fact, Alabama simply didn’t want to be there. They’d had their sites on the BCS game the entire year and when that…[Read more]

Cool! Then I’m anxious to see who they recruit in 2026. 2029 could be special!

LongDuckDong replied to the topic What are your bold predictions for the UW game? in the forum Football 5 years ago
Chico McClather and Arron Fuller suck balls. You should hope they play because Aaron Fuller will drop 3 passes and Chico McClatcher will fumble or take stupid routes. UW is better off without them.
Those two being out will force the Dawgs in to using more of Puka Nacua and Hunter Bryant, who will torch the Utes.
UW 27
Utah 21 -

Utah sucks in November until they don’t.
Petersen owns Whitt until he doesn’t.
Anything can happen and Utah is playing in November, in Husky stadium against a very talented, well coached team coming off a bye week.This has all the makings for major Ute disappointment.

LongDuckDong replied to the topic Am I correct in thinking this… in the forum Football 5 years ago
No way the Pac-12 gets a team in the CFP, NO FRIGGIN WAY!
2 SEC team will go (likely Alabama and LSU)
Clemson
The Big10 Champion (likely Ohio State)No way a one loss P12 gets in over a 1 loss SEC team or a 1 loss Big10 team.
Utah needs to focus on the Rose Bowl and the only way they’re going to that is to beat Oregon in the P12 Championship.

He’s a brother. Take it to the bank.

LongDuckDong replied to the topic Lander Barton is the starting OLB as Sophomore for Brighton in the forum Football 5 years, 3 months ago
So at this point we know Lander plays well against mediocre HS teams and he’s arguably the best defensive player on a middle of the road team. Sounds like he’s above average.
I’m going to watch him play Woods Cross next week.
He’ll probably be a 3 or 4 start recruit once it’s all said and done. Rumor is he likes Texas but I’d bet $$$ he ends up at Utah.

LongDuckDong replied to the topic 2020 Recruiting numbers as reported by 247… in the forum Football 5 years, 3 months ago
Recruiting does correlate to on field success. Look at Bama, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Clemson the last 4 or 5 years. They’re ranked highest on final recruiting classes. They get the best talent in the country, period.
Oh wait! Those are also the teams who make the CFP. Recruiting matters. Don’t kid yourself.

LongDuckDong replied to the topic 2020 Recruiting numbers as reported by 247… in the forum Football 5 years, 3 months ago
I’m not saying one method works and the other doesn’t. Oregon offered 300 kids and they are ranked #1 in the conference right now for recruiting. Washington only offered 70 kids and Washington is ranked #2 in the conference in recruiting.
I just can’t help but think if Utah is so good at preparing guys for the NFL, what would happen to the…[Read more]

Clearly Washington and Stanford have a different approach than most in the conference.
Arizona: 11 commits / 223 offers / 4.93% success rate / 82.73 avg 247 rating
ASU: 16 commits / 227 offers / 7.04% success rate / 84.13 avg 247 rating
Cal: 19 commits / 127 offers / 14.96% success rate / 84.95 avg 247 rating
Colorado: 16 commits / 301 offers…[Read more]

LongDuckDong replied to the topic Recruiting Concerns in the forum Football 5 years, 3 months ago
I haven’t followed Utah’s recruiting closely since now. The small number (only 5 recruits) and the ratings are what would concern me. Utah isn’t Oregon State or Arizona. They’re a consistent winner with a history of sending pros on the defensive side (at the very least). Why they can’t get more kids to commit and higher rated kids at this point in…[Read more]

LongDuckDong started the topic Recruiting Concerns in the forum Football 5 years, 3 months ago
Is anyone concerned about the Utes recruiting thus far for 2020?
According to Rivals, Utah is not ranked in the top 100 nationally, they are last in the Pac-12 and only have 5 recruits, 3 of which are 3 stars and the other two have no stars. Is this concerning or does Utah typically close strong?

I’m a UW Husky fan recently joined your group. Hoping you’ll let me stick around. I live in North Salt Lake, resident of the state for over 20 years. I’ll behave, please let me stay. I have dozens of Utah fan friends and will be respectful.
I see Utah’s record quite different than Chris Landon (I don’t know who that is).
I think Utah goes either…[Read more]
