The NBA works great with rookies. You invest a high round draft pick and you get them for at least 3 years. Not so in college football. You can break your back recruiting a kid from his sophomore year, get him on campus, and still lose him. What a waste of time and energy.

“I’m about to get a bag.”

I’d prefer this level of honesty. I don’t blame a kid for leaving.

I do wish kids would stop saying I’m coming back when you’re already in the program. I think players say that when Utah has upped their NIl. But don’t say that until the portal window is closed maybe? The pump fake gets us bitt hurt.

10-4…the somewhat ok news is that you still have guys in the program that graded as high as he did, or pretty close.

So, if Tanuvasa was demanding compensation above fair value, then Utah might have been willing…[Read more]

Maybe he’s a speed rush guy? I know what you mean, though. Last year when Oregon came to SLC their DE’s were 280+ and fast. I was jealous.

I liked Zack Moss in the spread / read option, wider holes to run through, more spread out, more runs to the outside. This past year, double TE’s and triple TE’s seem to shrink the holes without a Logan Kendall TE.

“Beck’s option attack this past season featured a good mixture of outside and inside running. It featured option-reads with…[Read more]

I wondered about Ganther. Is he hard to play for? Tavion Thomas was great under Kiel McDonald, and struggled under Ganther. I know Tavion had his issues, but shoot, what could have been for him if he got his stuff together? He had a very high ceiling beyond college football, if healthy and his head on straight.
