Not sure where to rank Rising given he didn’t play last year. All I know is he’s our MVP and is going to lead us to our 3rd Conference Championship and CFP appearance. So for those reasons, I’d rank him in the Top 10 with anyone else in the country. Go Utes!!

Five stars out of five
One ACLs out of two
He’s had enough time that I expect him to come back swinging. Rising is a proven good college quarterback and it’d be hard to rank him outside of the top 25 even if you expect him to have regressed a bit. Inside top 20 if he’s good to go.

Yesterday, Bill Riley talked about a list of the top incoming QBs for the 2024 college football season. Rising was ranked 16th on the list. Riley was upset. He feels Rising deserves much better.
I kind of get the ranking. When he plays in 2024, he will have not played in 20 months. He suffered a major injury. This injury could possibly…[Read more]

This thing does have an observation deck on the top, presumably with a restaurant. Click to the link and it shows more images of that stuff.

I wouldn’t count us out yet. He took his first official visit in April. It was to Ole Miss and he committed there within a few days of that.
But he still has scheduled OVs to Cal, Utah, and Arkansas (and just picked up an offer from Michigan as well).
Ole Miss is clearly the favorite…but I’d guess that it’s not in stone

Greg Newman, one of our Sugar Bowl champions, has passed away.
I still remember the unexpected awe I felt as the first quarter of the Sugar Bowl played out. The announcers could barely believe what they were seeing, and I was right there with them. A little later in the game, I remember feeling a little dread, thinking that the Alabama machine…[Read more]

difference is Brit & Landar has been in the program for numerous years. from my knowledge, myles doesn’t have any family ties to the program…he just really likes utah. plus, when you’re that young and you have the option to choose that much money + SEC over a program you grew up loving…at the end money pays the bills and i respect his…[Read more]

To underscore my point, Eiffel Tower, St Louis Arch, Statue of Liberty — for all of these visitors can go up them.
For something tall just to look at from the ground I’d rather look at the mountains, hoodoos in Bryce, cliff faces at Cedar Breaks, etc.

I didn’t even want to watch it until I hear something somewhat definitive. Get my hopes up. I just keep hearing vague things about knee and most of year. I’d love for the
Only-U Kanobi to hopefully chime in.

Thanks! It is good to get a little context.

Interesting. Good backstory, and I even like what the sculpture of the hands represents. It makes more sense as to why it looks the way it does. The only issue I have with it (based off of what it is about) is the endorsement by Cox. I don’t want to get political, but the halls of power in Utah are very corrupt (in my opinion) and no more so…[Read more]

supposed to be 100% funded by private contributions
Not sure what is “100% not true” about this. Could it end up costing taxpayer dollars? Sure. But it is not supposed to.
People could say “Tax payers eventually always foot the bill for crap like this” about our beloved stadiums and sports teams. They would not be wrong.

I hear ya. My heart wants it to be a good idea, but my head sees a different picture.
You’re right. Bringing him on as an asst is different than handing the HC keys. But when comparing to Burgess, Chris has gone through the collegiate coaching system: Grad assistant, assistant at small school, moving up to P5 assistant jobs.
All of that…[Read more]

So the land that this is going to be built on was so valuable that we had to move the State Prison for development opportunities. I don’t know, call me skeptical but it doesn’t surprise me that something like this is being floated as I’m not sure the whole process of moving the prison was completely above board in the first place. Some people…[Read more]

A fledgling user emailed to let me know they had issues registering, which I confirmed. Some of the security measures I’m using to lock things down from bot attacks I guess were overzealous. It’s hopefully working now, but I’ll have to look back at it and see if I can re-enable some of the security features without breaking registration. Not sure…[Read more]

Seems like if we’re going to build a giant, ugly monument, then we should put up something that is more reflective of current American values and prevailing attitudes.
Something like, I dunno, each hand angrily flipping off the other with the inspiring motto “Ego got meus ut vilis” (I got mine, so f**k you) boldly etched along the side.
I kid, I…[Read more]
