UteThunder replied to the topic 20 year Football Expectations in the forum Football 7 years, 2 months ago
Looking at it from a 5 year perspective . . .
One 6 to 7 win season every 5 years(20%).
Two 8 to 9 win seasons every 5 years(40%).
Two 10+ win seasons where we win the division and/or conference at least once(40%).
Using the past 3 seasons, we have the two 9 win seasons and one of the 10+ win seasons. I expected 7-5 this year and we appear…[Read more]

UteThunder replied to the topic A-Rod vs Taylor in the forum Football 7 years, 3 months ago
How has Williams regressed? More like, how has he not regressed?
Completion percentage(53.1 to 50), yards/attempt(7.07 to 6.36), TD:INT ratio(1.9:1 to 1:2), and QB rating(121.0 to 102.2) are all worse this year compared to last.
I also don’t recall Williams abandoning a perfectly good pocket over and over again last year, though maybe I am just…[Read more]

UteThunder started the topic A-Rod vs Taylor in the forum Football 7 years, 3 months ago
Anyone still want to make the argument that the big difference between A-Rod and Taylor as OC isn’t simply QB talent?
The big knocks on A-Rod were lack of QB development, redzone production, completion percentage, WR drops, and stretching the field horizontally instead of vertically.
Taylor comes in with his “iPhone” offense and rightfully names…[Read more] -

UteThunder replied to the topic Speaking of Tuttle in the forum Football 7 years, 3 months ago
Sorry, but you are reading way too much into my question. I’m genuinely curious why we are recruiting a pocket passer when I’ve heard over and over for the last two months that Huntley’s ability to run the football was a better fit for Taylor’s offense.
At no point did I imply that the coaches don’t know what they are doing. If anything, I…[Read more]

UteThunder started the topic Speaking of Tuttle in the forum Football 7 years, 3 months ago
Can someone tell me why we are recruiting him?
During Fall camp, speculation was that Huntley had a shot to win the starting QB spot because he was a better runner than Williams and because of that, Huntley was a better fit for Taylor’s system than Williams. Then Huntley won the job and his running ability along with how it fits with Taylor’s…[Read more] -
UteThunder started the topic Hard-Rod vs Troy Taylor in the forum Football 7 years, 3 months ago
It was only 2.5 quarters, but now that we have seen Williams and Huntley both in Taylor’s system, is it possible the problems under Harding and A-Rod were more due to lack of QB/WR talent than coaching?
A-Rod took most(all?) of the blame for our lackluster offense and poor QB play, but he didn’t have a sophomore Huntley or Carrington transfer…[Read more] -

UteThunder started the topic Somewhat related to UteFanatic's thread below . . . in the forum They So Poo Poo 7 years, 3 months ago
Some tidbits I have heard from a former BYU player who is still connected to their program.
– Detmer was hired by Holmoe, not Sitake. He was first contacted by Holmoe about a week before Sitake was offered the job.
– There is “some turmoil” amongst the coaches on BYU’s staff. Sounds like finger pointing and a lack of cohesiveness from what I…[Read more]

There are a couple of BYU fan claims that I hear quite a bit, but there is no way they can both be true.
1) The supposed gentleman’s agreement between Utah & BYU that we would stick together in whatever conference affiliation. We’ve all heard this, that Utah didn’t keep their end of the agreement by leaving BYU behind when we joined the…[Read more] -
