Absolutely could be right. However for being a traditional RUNNING team, it seems as though only Mitchell is getting the mention of “SURPRISE” player. If that is correct we kind know what we have. That is concerning to me. I hope that we have that lead back on our roster. But the feeling is a committee approach which I don’t necessarily…[Read more]

No doubt we could use a big time lead back. But the pay for player concerns me. I mean you have John Emery, Jalen Berger who would look great in our offense. But that $ sets us up not to be in the running. Newell is an option that would bolster our committee, but probably not lead back. Just more of a pound the rock type.

If my memory serves me correctly, I remember a past post that indicated he wanted to go to the U, but the fit was better at the Y.

They both were not going to see significant playing time at all. Kennedy may have been given flash opportunities, but Smedley was never even an option.

If this is true, and Caliman has some insider info this may be the best WR corps we would have had ever going into game #1. However, I have not seen or heard any confirmation of this on social media. But I absolutely would be stoked if this happened!

Chris Capko from USC is another fantastic young energetic coach that Utah needs to build their BBall program. This guy has coached all over the the stars and helped USC recruit some of the hottest BBall talent in Southern California. He is going to be a top candidate for some program. It might as well be ours!

Liu Aumavea QB, San Diego St. Via Provo High is in portal
Miles Davis/Dom Henry WR, Byu are in portal as well. Nice back end of roster depth pieces that are familiar with the landscape, all having spent time in Utah.

Ari Patu, Drew Pyne there several guys that fit. It’s a delicate balance of not bringing in someone that scares off the young guys but brings experience, maturity, and Gardner Minshew vibe to the room.

The other thing that we need to consider is we in essence are asking someone to come in for 2.5 string or 3 string. That’s a tough sell to someone that still has aspirations of doing something big with their football career. We need to find someone that has connections to Utah, Coaching Staff, etc. someone that knows their post football career…[Read more]

Sucks, he really never was given a chance. What we need is someone that is a veteran that can help bridge or give stability to our star who is more susceptible to injury and a young quarterback who by all accounts wasn’t ready last year. I’m not saying we need a 5 star here we need a bridge. That’s all!

OL is always a good get. But I think the bigger need is a Backup QB and potentially a DL piece! I did see Jacob Conover enter the portal. Once a highly regarded recruit, went on a mission, returned to BYpoo and then transferred home. ASU is now a dumpster and he is trying to get out of town. I thought he looked alright in his few opportunities…[Read more]

Completely agree! All the points you have made, appear to have been resolved by guys coming back from injury, transfer portal etc. I am really optimistic about the changes that have been made. I am also really excited about the new conference. I have no doubt that we will be there at the top, and continue to build our brand and be one more…[Read more]

Here’s hoping that the next get is Darrius Clemons out of Michigan. He is the perfect compliment and replacement for Vele.

Landen King influence!

Ja’Varrius Johnson is a 47% chance to transfer to us from Auburn. The other listed school in contention for his services is UCF. Looks like a slot receiver. What are the thoughts?

Miami…you are right! He probably isn’t looking at being a backup. He will either get some backup minutes at a bigger school or go to more of an irrelevant school and be given a starting opportunity (New Mexico). I still am a big fan of the Athan Kalamakis guy from Minnesota coming to Utah. Strictly for backup, potentially competition with…[Read more]

I thought SUU was where he was going.
