Hanno?

Grant?

Van Horn?

Good question Rick. Only Andre knows the answer. He is beloved by the community and has a chance to bring his alma mater back to relevance. Plus he and Alex are close and would work well as a team. Lots of reasons to come home. We need you Andre!!

Any one else have any other names/thoughts as to who Alex might add to his staff?

Not sure how to take your title as if you have some inside intel of what’s going on behind the scenes that seems Andre is not a sure a bet to return like previous social media reports indicated. I know to take social media with a huge grain of salt, but previous posts alluded to or made it seem as if he’s been waiting for the call to come back for…[Read more]

If you were a top PG prospect why wouldn’t you want to come play for and learn from a college All-American, first round draft pick, 17 year NBA veteran? Especially considering you have zero competition in front of you to worry about. If you are a big, why wouldn’t you want to play for the coach that is credited for developing Rudy Gobert into…[Read more]

Our point guard play has been nonexistent for many years. Andre can recruit and develop a good prospect. Both Miller and Jensen were the epitome of hard work and being great teammates. Utah basketball is finally back on track.

Hopefully he can be able to jump right in and be ready to go after players in the portal. I perceive we can go after a player once their season ends. Not to mention reaching out to some of our current players to convince them to stay.

Now we’re talking….

Alex Jensen

Officially offical.

AJ

This is just my opinion, but it feels like Alex was the only hire to shake things up and put Utah back into relevance as a basketball program. Regardless of the first two years, he needs to stay for 4 years on the contract to get some consistency. At minimum, he draws the eyes of locals and those close to the program beyond who is providing the…[Read more]

Can you read? I’m guessing probably not since I said above that my standard is a press conference and an official communique from the school. But hey, feel free to spin my comments whichever way you want.

Fantastic hire!

This truly feels like a revolution for the program to return to its place among the elites in college basketball.

Big Rick was officially announced by USC and even had an introductory press conference, if I recall correctly. So if that is your standard, even an official announcement from the school won’t be good enough.

I’m not a pessimist. I was just around for Bellick’s deal with the Jets, Big Rick’s deal with USC, and also remember Jensen pulling his name out of contention four years ago. By all means, I want to it happen but I won’t let my guard down until there’s a press conference and an official communique from the school.

By all means, let’s just assume that the reporters covering this situation are mistaken, and publishing falsehoods, or mistakes. KSL is always getting this shit wrong.

Good hell you’re a pessimist.

An official announcement has yet to happen from the school.

Reports: Alex Jensen will be Utah’s next basketball head coach

Yes, it is official. Jeez, what does it take?

I’m going to wait until the actual press conference before I start celebrating. There’s still no confirmation from either the school or Jensen’s camp.

There will be high expectations, but also there seems to be high $$$upport for those that want to invest in players (and assistants).

Not all of us have the funds needed to attract quality players in today’s game but I am looking forward to renewing my season tickets and hope others (in particular the students) will help pack the stands.
