Yergensen

Press conference post draft, Lions coordinator talks Vaki at RB. However, I think it’s also evident he’ll be used on special teams. Question is whether they’ll use him a safety as well.

Interesting reports on Vaki coming out of Detroit. They see him as a RB. He met with their offensive coaches prior to draft, big defensive coaches.

Craig Smith is out of his depth.

Yergensen’s 50+ yard FG in 1993 to beat BYU 34-31 in Provo. It turned the tide on the rivalry, which was one-sided for 20 years. It started Utah’s evolution into a football school and the program it is today.

SDS trajectory peaked in 1996 and has fallen over the same time as Utah’s rise. It’s foundational to be the alpha in your own state.

I would suggest Skinwalkers, but we don’t need any curses on top of our small market challenges. So, Soakers it is.

Seriously though, I like Utah Saints a tribute to 1990’s electronic music duo and you know…the Mormons. I also like Cutthroats or Yeti (not Yetis)

Whoa! Cormani McClain, that would be, as they say, a huge get.

@MDUte – do we have ties to the Miami RB that you posted is in the portal?

I think our RB problem statement is that is unclear whether we currently have a bona fide Utah RB1.

Job description of Utah RB1: workhorse, physical yet big play capable, 3-down back (run, block, catch).

They’re coming for Burgess. Will he let down millions of Mormons a second time?

100 pts, Big Rick rolling in his grave.

Defense travels, this team doesn’t.

Whit’s defaults on any QB race, “Dead heat”, “neck and neck” and “too close to call.”

Now Whit has trouble evaluating QB, he’s turnover averse and a defensive coach. At the same time we were told by insiders the Rising & Bentley QB battle, which according to Whit came down to a photo finish, was never close all along and Whit knew it was Ris…[Read more]

OnlyU, I’m sure you know this already. Some of his FSU game highlights show some nasty blocking. It may not show up in practice as it would be friendly fire, but he could be key for us in the run game as well.

We’ve slept on Pittman, that’s for sure. I hope he and our best WR talent gets sufficient reps and targets. We need to scheme and rotate WR better.

“Dead heat for QB2”

Whit’s next t-shirt.

My interest piqued for a moment thinking you were referring to a possible 2nd round Women’s Bball tourney matchup with Iowa and Caitlyn Clark.

Instead it’s a Men’s NIT Bball reference, interest no longer piqued, apathy re-activated.

Could be good. I could get into the reliability of Watson, Winston and DTR, but you don’t carry 4 QBs if you think you have your backup. Snoop may be competing for more than QB3.

Stepfanski brought Flacco out of retirement and got the Browns to the playoffs. He will do whatever is necessary to win, even if it has to do with Watson who is a s…[Read more]

Return to averaging 38 pts per game.

This might seem obvious, but everything that factors (game plan, playcalling, personnel) needs to align with more balance and aggressiveness, less predictability on offense.

When we’ve done this, we’ve won P12 championships. When we haven’t, we don’t.

How is Pope getting BYU into the tourney in first B12 season? They’re more disadvantaged than we are.

It’s basketball with small rosters and a transfer portal. This can be turned around quickly if you get the right coach. We don’t have the right coach. Time for Harlan to earn his paycheck.

This exemption may only apply during the pre-admission period (pre-Aug 2024). I don’t know who tweeted this response (original author?) and I don’t know what to bel…[Read more]
