@leftyjace Yes. I guess I have said it 3 times. I do believe that boosters opinions carry more weight. Surprised that you don’t agree.
Don’t see where I said there was “insider information”. Again, just stating facts. So still confused about the BS I am being “called out on”.

@leftyjace If you read the thread I mentioned it because I was told his contract was “none of my business”. I think as boosters it is our business. I think as boosters we have more weight than someone who is not a booster. For instance, boosters get more tickets to the bowl. Can’t believe this is news to everyone?

Don’t doubt that. Still doesn’t change what I think about Whitts handling of this.

Would Woody Hayes or Bo Schembechler have done what Whitt has to their respective schools or not?

Never said that Moose. Said that boosters opinions matter – pretty easy concept. The amount I have given is significant and in the form of donations. The amount is none of your business, but if you spend more on tix and merchandise I would be VERY impressed. I’m not looking for accolades nor do I care what you think of my donations – and I…[Read more]

I respectfully disagree with you guys on this issue. Especially the argument that this is “none of my business” – it is all of our business. Maybe even more so mine since I am a booster.
Nonetheless, let me ask you guys this: How many of you believe that Woody Hayes or Bo Schembechler would have listened to offers from their cross town rival?…[Read more]

It’s very easy to take your name out of contention when the speculation is hurting your current employer and its’ prospects for the future. I explained myself above, I think Provo is the one exception. I find it insulting he has not said he will not take that job. If you are at the U this is the one job you do not use as negotiation against the…[Read more]

Couldn’t disagree more @BeehiveUte
1) It is not Hill who is stopping him from signing the extension. It is Whitt negotiating. Hill has said they are on the same page. Whitt has played his same selfish bullshit games.
2). We will be fine if Whitt leaves just like other programs who lose their coach. Hill hired Mac, Urban and Whitt I’m not…[Read more]

Let’s not make it harder than it is. One school – “not interested”. That’s it. Not hard. By the way – it happens all the time.

Ute Bc replied to the topic Whittingham is insulting his supporters – I'm one of them in the forum Football 8 years, 11 months ago
Again. I applaud him talking to other schools – that school should be off limits. I would not blame Whitt for going to Notre Dame – but to use that school and put them on an even playing field is offensive. The only offense he’s displayed this year.
-
Ute Bc replied to the topic Whittingham is insulting his supporters – I'm one of them in the forum Football 8 years, 11 months ago
Sorry – that’s a cop out. Ronnie Mac and Urban would never allow this speculation to continue – not with that school. We are a PAC 12 school competing for recruits and our coach is not ruling out going to work at a G5 school that happens to be our rival.
Whitt is biting the hand that feeds him.

You haven’t missed anything @tony I just find it poor form and unusual for a coach of the University of Utah to allow an in-state G(5) school make it look like he’s considering leaving us. It hurts our perception with recruits and is insulting to those paying his salary. He can not comment on any other job, but when he picked Utah – that means…[Read more]

I understand the policy of not talking about contracts and coaching vacancies – but there is one exception that needs to be made. Under no circumstance should he be allowed to use that crap school down south as a negotiating chip. It is insulting.
It he want’s us to believe that a little independent is driving up his cost, I say let him go. …[Read more]

He’s raiding Florida for players. DE is extremely valuable in the recruiting process. Give most coaches good talent and they can coach it up.
I don’t disagree that he’s a great recruiter and that wouldn’t change if he was the Offensive Coordinator – in fact it would improve. He would’ve have coached up Travis, maybe not to the level you and I w…[Read more]

LOL – no love for Osweiller, however, he is in the NFL and had a much better college career than Travis (despite some similarities).
I don’t necessarily think that Dennis is unhappy. I just think it was a mistake. We are wasting a ton of talent by having him coach the RB’s in my opinion. He was not given the time necessary..

Ute Bc replied to the topic Never understood the demotion of Erickson in the forum Football 8 years, 12 months ago
It was most definitely not. In fact, he expressed that he was surprised

I really think this was biggest blunder that Kyle made. He didn’t give Erickson enough time to implement his offense. Erickson is a great offensive coach and made Osweiller (sp?) a starting QB in the NFL. I think he could’ve have made strides with Travis as well.
There is no reason to have a National Championship offensive guru coaching our RB’s.

Ute Bc replied to the topic Excuse me while I go beat my wife in the forum Football 9 years ago
He was extended after last season.
It will be interesting to see how many, if any, schools come after Kyle. I think he’s one of the top defensive minds in the country. If one of the big openings comes up we will have to pay him a lot and keep him for a long time – if we want him. That may be the right thing to do, but I am starting to have…[Read more]

Ute Bc replied to the topic Excuse me while I go beat my wife in the forum Football 9 years ago
Beeehive, I love a good LB but I really hope he stays as a QB. He has been advertised as a great QB until mid-season when we had injury issues in the defensive backfield.
If we didn’t feel like he was a good QB then why in hell haven’t we been recruiting more QB’s. It sure didn’t feel like, going into this season, that we were going to look…[Read more]
