This team has over achieved with the talent level and so many new players. Problem is our high water mark won’t get us a trip to the dance.

I don’t think Smith is capable of recruiting Big12 talent Miami. He is coaching Mountain West caliber players. Other than Carlsen (coach K recruit) I can’t think of any NBA talent on roster in 4 years.
It will take a Dion type hire with deeper NIL pockets to turn things around. If we want to compete in the Big 12 and sell tickets it’s going…[Read more]

Agreed. Growing up in P12 country surely skews my bias towards the P12 teams. UCLA game is the only Utah game I am attending this coming season. Outside of Utah games, way more viewing interest in the old P12 teams play vs. the non-Utah Big 12 games. Some of the MWC games, USU, BSU games are more interesting. No disdain for the B12, it’s more a…[Read more]

I’m very happy we beat TD$$$$ who has a few players making more than some of the ones playing down at the Delta Center.

Not to me. last year we had two players who were better than any player we have this year–Carlson and D. Smith.

No. He burnt that bridge.

I hadnt thought about this until just now, but the fact that that athletic dept. just announced a $17 million deficit due to Pac 12 Comcast settlement and the lesser revenue in the Big Xii may be a big factor.

My son’s experience echoed this as well. The kid he kept losing his minutes to was 6’8 and started playing late. My son was only 6’4 but twice as thick and had been playing post with this group of kids since they were in 3rd grade (going largely undefeated in school and traveling ball for years). The coach, who was new to town, seemed hell bent…[Read more]

Trust me, we do not want Pitino, he kind of seems like a neppo baby to me. I saw no evidence that he was much of a coach/leader at Minnesota.

The next coach will be someone with ties to the program.
It has to happen. It will energize the fan base but most importantly will energize the NiL donors

I feel like Utah started winning more when Sharamjavits went to the PG. He might not be uber productive on the offensive end, but defensively, a 6’8″ Point Guard adds an annoyance to the defense.

How about that Dylan Guenther? GW goals in back-to-back nights!!! This time with 33 seconds left in OT. So glad that the UHC locked him up to a long-term contract before the season started.

krindor replied to the topic ESPN Puts Utah at 33 in its Recruting Rankings in the forum Football 6 months, 1 week ago
Here is a good way of looking at where we actually rank
It’s generally hard to measure a recruiting class – 247 has their rankings, but frankly put way too much emphasis on class size – especially in a transfer portal era where its not always helpful to fill more spots. And looking at average recruit rating is an improvement over that… but can…[Read more]

With or without Smith? Personally, and I’ve said a few times, I don’t see a realistic pathway for Utah to get rid of Smith after this season. I just think that there’s a kind of “buyout fatigue” and the university will probably just rather see him run out his contract instead of paying to go away. Now, the only way that changes is if Smith…[Read more]

Lack of talent and athleticism. Players roles have not been defined causing the variation in minutes played. I could see a complete revamp of the roster again next year.

The Miami Ute replied to the topic Inconsistent lineups in the forum Basketball (Men) 6 months, 1 week ago
It is extremely fishy and is just another nail in the NBA’s coffin. No way, no how, any team trades THE player of his generation unless they don’t give a rat’s ass about winning. And, this might be an example of that…a new ownership in it expressly for the purpose of making money above everything else.
It kind of reminds me of the Miami…[Read more]

You have inconsistent lineups when you have inconsistent players.

You know, I actually saw that movie at the theater when it first came out. I remember some of the plot details but couldn’t remember the part about moving the team to Miami.

Richard Pitino couldn’t do much of anything when he was at Minnesota and eventually got canned. He kind of reminds me of a Coach K hire….
