Trailgoat started the topic Off-season banter. Killing time until football starts. in the forum Football 3 years, 4 months ago
Utes could be really good this season. All the pieces are in place. All eyes on the Oline. Optimistic BB will see a turn around next season.
Time for Harlan to make another hard decision and cut the baseball program. Watching the CWS sure sheds light on Utah having no business fielding a baseball program, a complete waste of money especially…[Read more] -
Trailgoat replied to the topic Saving football and maybe much more in the forum Football 3 years, 4 months ago
Very interesting and good work it seems for these players. Not sure this is the correct title for the article. That said, Tackle football participation at the youth and H.S level overall continues to significantly decline. Interestingly, NFL and NCAA football attendance has been declining was as well (other factors in play here of course). Sadly,…[Read more]

Trailgoat replied to the topic Honest opinion from the Ducks on the Utes in the forum Football 3 years, 5 months ago
Duck and Ute guys did a solid job outlining the Ute Oline being a major concern now and over the past several years. Some brutal dialogue regarding the missed block on Rising’s injury among other things. Until Utah’s Oline can perform against USC, ASU, and OU, these games are sure losses. Only hope is if some of the Frosh from last season improve…[Read more]

Utah will go where the California schools take them in terms of conference decision making.

Trailgoat replied to the topic Bostyn Holt 6’7” SF from coffeyville CC commits to Utah in the forum Basketball (Men) 3 years, 5 months ago
Ian Martinez has NBA potential at best. He has not proven much at the college level yet other than some brief moments of athleticism. In fairness, he’s just starting college ball. Martinez will need to put on at least 20 pounds and become a much better outside shooter and ball handler to play in the NBA. The daddy-ball thing may also be a red flag…[Read more]

Trailgoat started the topic QB, RB, WRs, Defense won't be the weak spot on this team. Oline needs to step up in the forum Football 3 years, 6 months ago
and IMO, this is a make or break year for Harding. He has to be in the same shoes as Holiday was if the Oline does not perform this year. We hear every year how solid the Oline is going to be and they get man handeled by the upper level teams in the P12.
As mentioned several times in this forum, there was at least four pass plays a defender was…[Read more] -
Trailgoat replied to the topic I want to talk football in the forum Football 3 years, 6 months ago
Utah is not beating USC in LA. As much as I would love to see it happen, Utah does not have the offensive fire power to compete with USC’s athletes. USC has a solid plan to slow down Utah’s offense. It will be much of the same eight USC defenders on the line of scrimmage pushing Utah’s Oline around, stopping the run and giving the Ute QB less than…[Read more]

Amazing. MUSS is going to be crazy loud with the SEZ closed in.

Trailgoat replied to the topic Martinez in the transfer portal in the forum Basketball (Men) 3 years, 6 months ago
Getting rid of daddy ball is a good thing. IMHO, totally okay with losing Martinez and his coach/dad as well. Another example of bad coaching decision by LK hiring the father of a kid, dumb move. How this was considered okay at the college level is a head scratcher. I presume the Martinez transfer portal announcement is listed as a packaged…[Read more]

Trailgoat replied to the topic If I was king for a day in the forum Football 3 years, 6 months ago
Will add, player pushes the Transfer Portal button he/she immediately loses all scholarship/financial aid support on the spot. Would love for these entitled college athletes to live the life of the average college student busting ass to pay for school, rent, living expenses while working when not in school or doing homework. Talk about an…[Read more]

Trailgoat started the topic Transfer Portal Questions in the forum Basketball (Men) 3 years, 6 months ago
With so many kids in the transfer portal market, is the transfer portal set up in Craiglist type of search format with a variety of filter options for coaches to go shopping for players?
When a player enters the transfer portal do they announce to their current school, enter there name into the data base with no release of their scholarship or…[Read more] -
Trailgoat replied to the topic Any News Coming Out of Football Spring Practice in the forum Football 3 years, 6 months ago
Nice to get first hand reports on QB performance. The KW coaches speak on QB indecision has become silly. I guess it’s an old school thing to act like there is a tight battle for QB with no announcement until game time to keep the first team on the schedule guessing. Clearly it was not as close as KW lead on. Cheering for Rising to have a solid…[Read more]

Trailgoat replied to the topic Plummer too now in the forum Basketball (Men) 3 years, 6 months ago
Plummer at this point at the end of his BB career probably needs some stability. Kids dealt with the same transfer BS and crappy team performance over his career at Utah. Don’t blame him at all for wanting to have at least one year in a stable program not in rebuild mode. Hope he has a great year next season where ever he ends up. He was fun to…[Read more]

Is Spring Ball happening? Looking for the all important Spring Schedule release notification.

Copy that. You can’t teach speed. KW and MS are two of the best at transforming raw athleticism into NFL level talent.

Trailgoat started the topic Solid perspective on the college star rating system and playing in the NFL in the forum Football 3 years, 8 months ago
Small sample size, still telling how developing talent, hard work, are the true measurement. Sound familar? Go Utes!
KC and TB Super Bowl teams combined have:
1 ESPN 5 star recruit
20 four star recruits
22 three star recruits
41 below three star recruits
Total of 63 players rated 3 star or less.
Apologies in advance if already posted. -
Trailgoat replied to the topic Lax and asun in the forum Other Ute Sports 3 years, 8 months ago
Silly East Coast commentary. Fact is, LAX is blowing up out West more than any other college sport has done in such a short time. I have friends with kids playing at top college programs connected to the H.S. club scene, etc on the East coast.
They’re fully aware of what is going on out West. In their terms, the MCLA league/program set up is a…[Read more]

Trailgoat replied to the topic Butterball is back? in the forum Football 3 years, 8 months ago
Yeah, BT would be a huge loss for sure. Tough situation for the WRs on the team. These guys have been very patient and working hard over the past couple years. There are some red flags with Holliday coaching the WRs considering development, recruiting, transfers, and overall performance. There needs to be more production from the WR position other…[Read more]

Trailgoat replied to the topic Butterball is back? in the forum Football 3 years, 8 months ago
Makes sense if it’s a QB transfer other than Costelli. Could see one of the WRs making a move as well. The Jaylen Dixon rumors seemed to be much about nothing so who knows what emoji post from a Twitter hack means. Off season banter is always good to pass the time, especially if Spring football is reduced or cancelled.
