I will never understand the flawless Olympic level mental gymnastics it takes to watch a coach turn two seasons in a row into the challenger spacecraft launch and not only completely ignore it, but behave as if the whole thing went over without a hitch. I can’t tell if I envy or pity the ability to maintain such a fluid relationship with reality.

Interesting. You think the assistant’s Utah might be targeting are on playoff teams? I’d imagine that anyone else would be fair game since bowls haven’t seemed to stop people from taking other jobs.

Well there is Becker and Ficklin who are freshmen. I expect the NM QB and likely another portal QB. Rising might stay for QB3 level NIL. That mix may just be better then this last year.

I don’t know that ASU so much pulled a rabbit out of the hat, Leavitt I think was a Y legacy kid. ASU brought in 3 QBs in the portal, had a derby, and came up with a good QB. They got 30 in portal I expect hitting their needs and moved quickly past Colorado with their star players. Scattebo was a rabbit out of the portal the previous year. Anyway,…[Read more]

Firefox on my PC.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see some movement on the staff front in the coming weeks. The players are on more of a time crunch. Most of the assistant targets are still coaching right now.

Wilson is an entitled prima donna and we don’t need him. Players like him are a cancer in the locker room. As soon as he was benched you could see this coming from a mile away. Good riddance IW.

Kids used to get chemistry in a box for Xmas. It must not be as hard to build as people make it out to be 🙂

Family is still there. But, every player now has an NIL-sponsored divorce lawyer encouraging otherwise.

I don’t think Cam comes back to the Utes. I’ll shove a perfectly good burrito into the trashcan if he does.

I had that message about a month ago and emailed Tony. He was able to post the link for me and also mentioned something about checking the spam filter.

There was also an issue with “X” instead of “Twitter” a year or so ago but I don’t have access to X so I didn’t pay attention to what the fix was. There is a section in HELP about posting from…[Read more]

Unless someone is a bit more forthcoming with the nature of this injury than they were the last one, I’m not sure how anyone on here can answer your question.

Completely expected. Whitt had all the leverage and wasn’t going to leave money on the table for himself or take it away from his friends and family staff who’d stood by him for years.

It doesn’t lessen the stink from the complete pile of doo-doo he oversaw in 2024. The buyout becomes much more manageable after 2025 and I doubt the decision…[Read more]

Agree, players make plays and coaches coach. Execution is some combination of both.

It’s just counterintuitive to me to replace the roster while keeping largely the same staff. Because wasn’t that staff in charge of finding and coaching up the players to the point where they could execute at the required level?

I like the optimism Charlie but Utah is now in roughly the same position Colorado was two years ago when this board pretty close to unanimously said it was not possible to replace whole rooms and build meaningful chemistry in a single offseason. Unless Whitt has a first round QB nephew that I’m not aware of and can bring a former top rated…[Read more]

“Tongue in cheek”

Feels like a conspiracy. Are we sure TTDS isn’t paying Whit to stay? It’s not that far of a stretch considering that one of their largest corporate sponsors (PACS) is being investigated for Medicare fraud.

After a 5-7 season and a two year PR sh!t show you go with a catch phrase?!

Hey Utah Football and Athletic Department, you are tone deaf.

TE CJ Jacobsen to the portal.

Kind of seems apropos to announce the plethora of QB coaches after they all leave.
