I just don’t know if Utah has the horses to compete in this landscape. They thrived as a program because they were very good at finding undervalued talent and turning it into something strong. But with NIL, once those players blow up, the teams with the financial resources come calling and honestly, it’s hard to to begrudge a player for taking a…[Read more]

That maybe true and I don’t doubt that, but I’m not naive to believe they are not capable of such nefarious activity! If you think BYU a truly righteous holier than thou school and is not behind a lot of it, then you need to become street smart.

This feels like a kid that knows he’s our best option, but isn’t being paid like a top 15 team’s #1 option and wants to.
I have a feeling he’s coming back.

I cannot believe contracts hold no value in this world of college. I agree above. I have season tickets this year and will go. But this will be my last until this stuff gets figured out.

The baffling thing to me isn’t that players are following the money. That’s the understandable part. The baffling thing to me is that we seem to have such a weak counter punch to these programs that are waving cash in front of our players. Who knew we would be so far behind in adapting to the modern college football landscape. We are out there pre…[Read more]

Hi Ute friends, I know we all are frustrated with NIL and the Transfer Portal. It sucks losing Williams and maybe others. In my experience, once I accepted this all as the way things are and just shrug my shoulders both when players enter the portal from Utah and player join us via the portal from other programs, my serenity increased.
Yes, I’m…[Read more]

Quit acting like BYU is doing something unethical or out of the norm. They are operating the same way every school – who’s smart and embracing the current wild west of the College sports – do. And it’s most likely not BYU out tampering with our players, it’s likely the players’ agents going to BYU (and any other number of schools) and trying to…[Read more]

Can’t believe I’d ever be saying this, but after 20+ years of being a season ticket holder, this might be my final season. Until NIL, the transfer portal and tampering is fixed, I’m not going to continue paying more and more for a sub par product.

Curious to see if he has a deal already in place or shopping around to find one. I hope it’s worth it. He was set to be WR 1. New school, new program and new offense.

If Utah had the means to do what BYU is doing right now, I would support ’em. It’s a dog-eat-dog world out there and the Utes are quickly falling behind the game.

It is sad. But also realize most of these players will not go on to the NFL and college football will give them their best opportunity to make money until late in the career or maybe ever. I don’t begrudge them getting their share of what college football makes but I would like to see it done in a process that does not pay them more to be a…[Read more]

I know Snowden was contacted last year during the portal by TDS as well. Hopefully they are all solid.

I picked up your mom from the transfer portal. Didn’t require much NIL money.

Ignore him and he’ll go away. If he is drawing attention he’ll keep posting.

Question for Tony-
I understand the non-censoring stance. I’m not requesting that you do that. If a user decides to block another user though how does that appear on the board? Would this thread not even appear because it was started by him? Asking for a friend. The childishness is genuinely taking away from the experience. Why grown ups c…[Read more]

Not sure why it’s mind-boggling to you, though because it’s very likely Utah isn’t picked to be a top five Big 12 team. They might. I think we’ve all conceded that but that won’t be the media’s project. And I get the media doesn’t know what they’re talking about half the time but it does indicate the consensus and I’m sure the consensus will have…[Read more]
