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.

The ‘80-‘81 team with Chambers and Vranes is probably my favorite, however, the 1983 team with Manny Hendrix (Freshman year) and Pace Mannion was fun to watch. I’ll never forget the on court celebration of Chris Winans when the Utes upset UCLA to advance to the sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament. Other players of note included Angelo Robinson, Peter…[Read more]

the current players, if they stick around, will make that position loaded. I think we could see two four star QBs in the 2026 class who have Utah at the top of their lists: Peyton Falzone and Oscar Rios. we also have freshman QB Wyatt coming in the fall. Isaac Wilson may not want to stick around and I’m okay with that. Utah is gonna have a…[Read more]

Wait, is this April 1st.

I feel like agricultural schools like USU should be running away with these championships.

That’s how he came to Utah. I think NIL is just bad for college sports whether it favors Utah and other universities or not. Understand this is the nature of the business in college sports, but I think in time the balloon will burst and fanbases across the country will slowly discontinue supporting college sports as it doesn’t benefit all student…[Read more]

With the honor code they should be good at trimming bushes (hair) and only deal with 1 kind of grass. Not to mention popcorn popping on the apricot tree at football games.

Well I guess that’s not too surprising. After all, ybu-p had built their brand by beating up on smaller schools.
