Yeah, I see it more as a public service to sell your tickets to Utah fans at face value than anything else. Hat tip to you!

All the reports from camp I have read are making me want to climb aboard. It sounds like he is accurate with the ball, avoids turnovers and is serious about time in the film room.

I know it is the collective psyche of Ute fans to be eternally pessimistic and avoid pre-season hype, but you know what, I am going all in on Troy. I am on the…[Read more]

News like this makes it hard for me to keep my expectations for the season in check.

I will say, from what I have seen and heard of Troy, he sounds like a kid that has the “it” factor. Now, our WR still need to catch the ball, and reports from practice today made it sound like there were way too many drops.

The common refrain is “if we can…[Read more]

Good sign for sure. If they are still doing this once the pads come on I am going to be very bullish on our O this year.

Well said. I am really hopefully we can see an improvement at the QB position next year, but I am not going to bag on Travis. He has given his all for this team, but like everyone he has his limitations.

I am really hopeful we see PAC 12 level talent on the field next year at QB and WR.

Yeah, that last drive by Oregon was pretty sweet. This will be a great second half

I like Sitake, but I think there is something to this. I feel like up tempo teams like Oregon and AZ are his Krytonite. Not saying he was the only problem, but I am hoping we can show a little better on D, control the clock and win ugly, because I am coming to accept that is our identity.

But man, I really would love another Oregon type…[Read more]

The thing I am more concerned about than snapping is pass blocking with a cast on his hand. Pass blocking is all holding onto the inside of the pads on the defender. With a big club on his right hand, I’m not sure how he does that.

Which leads me to believe that GadValleyUte is correct in saying we might be going for a ground and pound game plan.…[Read more]

Agree with you here Tony. I am surprised how quickly I have come to dislike the AZ schools. I can not stand Todd Graham and I have come to view ASU fans/grads with a certain level of distaste.

AZ sucks and I want Rich Rod to got to Va Tech and see AZ suck forever.

I am saying USC was our trap game. We roll in this game. Travis plays like he did against ASU and Oregon, throws for 250 or so. Booker runs for 200. Kendall and Chase both get significant time under center. Covey returns a punt for a TD. Gianni has 15 tackles. We beat the spread.

Yeah, I am being way too optimistic, but OSU is a bad team and we…[Read more]

If it makes you feel any better I am giving my tickets to my brother and sister and they are huge fans.

So, I agree with most of what you said. Things are bright and if you told me at the beginning of the season we would be sitting at 6-1, first in the division and #13 in the country I would take that in a second.

However, I won’t be at the game on Saturday because I have three little girls that are bouncing off the walls with excitement about…[Read more]

That will suck if he is out for SC and Whittingham is playing. Whittingham seems to be out of position often and is too slow sideline to sideline. That could really hurt us.

Agree with UteStuckinSeattle. The last two games were so close. We have a better team and they have a worse team than the last two years. I think we get them.

As for Todd Graham, I really hate that guy two. I’m not sure what it is? The way he left Pitt? The wristbands and headset? It’s not because they have beat us, Rich Rod beats us like a drum…[Read more]

Plus a Senior QB. We are losing a lot next year, so I hope this year is really special. I will say, I think with guys like Troy, Joe Williams and others we have some pretty good talent waiting in the wings.

It was interesting to hear A Rod gush about Troy McCormick. It’s like he couldn’t say enough good things about the kid. Makes me excited to get him back next year.

That was definitely a good interview. Definitely. I’m happy to see Travis having some much deserved success. I hope it keeps rolling this season. I remember in the Pitt game in ’10 Travis came in on a special goal line package and tried to hurdle a Pitt defender while going for the end zone. That play made me laugh, but also made me a fan. Any guy…[Read more]
