Ditto. Played a lot of ball with Bobby at the old Deseret Gym during his off seasons. Good man gone too soon.

I’m pretty sure you meant Bobby Adair. Bobby was taken too young, he was a talented basketball player, smart, and funny, and my friend.

That was the team that got me hooked. The 1989-90 school year I was in Austin Hall on the same dorm floor around the corner from Bryon and Tyrone so Phil and Barry (Ute Dub below forgot Barry Howard who was a defensive stopper on that team) were always around too. Other plyers would come around time to time too, Walter threw a fastball to me out…[Read more]

Actually, that’s not a bad alignment with tax season. Use your refund to pay for the tickets.

Unless you owe, of course. But of the 30 years I’ve been working, I’ve only owed one time.

Omaha I don’t know what others charge and in my case it doesn’t matter. If I had the money I would renew and support the program. It’s not a matter of what’s fair but can you afford the tickets or not. In my financial situation it’s not worth it. We used to go to 8-10 concerts a year now 1 or 2. I don’t think I’m alone. At some point the price out…[Read more]

Do you feel like Utah tickets are unfairly priced with other comparable programs, and that Harlan has been unnecessarily increasing prices while other AD’s have held the line?

I was there at the NC game. We lost by 5. NC played four corners for the last 5 minutes of the game. There was no shot clock in those days. If I remember correctly, Chambers got in early foul trouble.

I enjoyed that team as well.

Doleac and Miller were not highly recruited out of high school. Drew Hansen was not really recruited at all. Jensen was a local hero but had little national attention. Jensen had recently returned from a mission in 1998. Mattola was from Finland.

Yes, Miller and Doleac had nice NBA careers. But, I believe it was because of how hard they…[Read more]

They did but with different judges. Everything is level at nationals (and 6 judges per event)

We certainly aren’t favored to advance to the FotF but we have the talent to make it to Saturday if we hit. Winning the NC is a tall task for sure, though.

I remember the 1974 team well. It was a great team which improved throughout the season. Sojourner won the NIT MVp award even though we lost to Purdue. HAd Spojourenr stayed, the 1975 team would have been one of the top teams in the country.

That’s awesome, what are the chances we win it all this year?

Boy oh boy, if I recall correctly that Buster Matheney “dunk” was actually a baseline finger roll. Great game and an even better team. Go Utes!

The only time the Utes went to the NIT finals in the ‘70s and ‘80s was in 1974 against Purdue. Jonas was a Freshman and Judkins wasn’t on the team until the following year. I was too young to remember that team, however, it had some serious ballers with Burden, Sojourner, Medley, Jones and Menatti.
Anyways, another team that I liked was the ‘77-‘…[Read more]
