Joel Klatt had an excellent monologue on NIL, see below. I think athletes getting paid is a good thing, with pros outweighing cons; example being the outreach that the Crimson Collective does with charities, and players staying longer in college, not feeling pressured to leave so they can support themselves, family, or friends.

This may be me drinking the red kool aid, but 11-1. I flipped a coin to decide the loss between the two “dubious but talented” away games in UCF and Buffs.

Travis Hunter is a damn cheat code. OkSt’s Ollie Gordon is the same, but they had the 122nd ranked defense last year. Colorado was actually *worse* on defense but Deion’s efforts in the…[Read more]

Couldn’t agree more. Lots of change between then and now, but Fifita is an excellent QB and I have terrible memories of bigger WRs being very present in Utah losses over the years. On the other side, it is VERY difficult to beat Utah at home and at full strength, unless you’re Chris Petersen. That dude tuned us up.

I figure if you’re nervous just…[Read more]

Maybe. Whitt would be a placeholder – conjecture, but he seems to follow the “I’ll do it until I can’t do it at 100% mantra”.

I do, however, think he would be successful at Michigan. His persona of being very serious, disciplined, and deliberate seems to work well with teams (technically team) whose play-style is the same. Of course, this is a…[Read more]

Rivals: Bagpipe-Y-U and ASU.

Mutual Respect: Arizona, KSU, and Colorado.

Frisky: Tough one. Utes have had issues with teams who have a freak manchild on their roster: Juju Smith-Schuster, Hercules Mata’Afa, N’Keal Harry, and most recently Anthony “dammit there he goes again” Richardson. I lean UCF. Their program just signed a large and…[Read more]

I do agree with the coaching philosophy – the 2015 equipment manager probably had to order an angle grinder just to get the maize + blue paint out of Gionni’s facemask. I also agree that Utah should accept the share of the 2008 natty.

Just from an observer’s standpoint I feel Whitt is comfortable here. He gets paid very well, lives close to…[Read more]

Eagles offense wasn’t exactly the greatest in 2023, but him being 36 and getting head coaching interviews is a very positive sign. I hope/think he has a very long career ahead of him.
