If the team finishes on an eight-game losing streak, I don’t see how Whitt comes back. In a scenario like that, he’s clearly run out of answers. But then again, I’ve learned to never discount the profit motive.

You were a jackass to Charlie? Why? He’s one of the nicest regulars on here.

Yeah, Arizona has been so financially mismanaged (tons of articles about this issue online) that they’re so poor that they can’t even pay attention. Due to that, I was shocked to see both Fifita and MacMillan stay this season. Must be one of those rare cases where players actually like the school that they’re going to.

welcome back Charlie. I hope you took a couple of weeks off for some reason other than me being a complete jackass to you for which I sincerely apologize.

Eagle, did you see the Illini’s uniforms for that game? I kind of dug them. They looked like a bunch of Red Granges on the field.

I’m not sure that I understand what you mean when you say we’re “living beyond our means.” RES has been sold out for well over a decade, the team has experienced success into this season, and Whitt’s pay is commensurate with his success. Yes, he has three more years in his current contract which has a base of ~$6.5M but that’s not a disaster.…[Read more]

Gut punch statistics.

I’m on the same page. I want Whitt to dig himself out of the hole. But it can’t happen with his current staff. I brought up Harbaugh last week and think it’s still appropriate.

This season is done. Either announce your retirement effective at the end of the season so that Scalley can have two months before signing day to shore up this year’s…[Read more]

Neither of those will happen. I think they announce that someone else will call plays.

There’s more to it than that. If you’re a 17-18 year old, Tempe is much more of a happening place than Salt Lake City.

Sure, and the one percent feels that the way America is going right now is just perfect. At the end of the day, it’s all about who’s interests are getting serviced.

To UteHub… No Changes? No. Not saying that.
My take. This is NOT a simple leak that just sprung up 3 weeks ago. And it won’t be fixed in 24-48 hours with a new play caller.
This is a seismic problem (many major issues) in the Ute football program that started at the top with AD Harlan and goes all the way down through the whole coaching…[Read more]

my only thought was that since the defender hit him in the back, instead of the leg, it was running into.

Jumping in…I would consider Scalley to be the antithesis of Whitt…I don’t think that they’re alike at all.

It’s more than just NIL though. People on here laughed about Kenny Dillingham’s postgame interview last week. Do you know who wasn’t laughing? His players. They absolutely love playing for a coach who is young, enthusiastic, doesn’t think the answer to every situation is the same one he’s been doing for the last 20 years.,,

Dillingham may…[Read more]

The OL is a big issue, I am just wondering if bad OL play is the cause or the result of other issues or both. However the current state is bad enough to lose our best recruit for next year. First, Defense 101 will tell you to attack a young freshman QB relentlessly until they give you a clear reason to rebalance the defense. Last years experience…[Read more]

Yes but in hopefully an amusing light hearted way that we can look back on and laugh about.

You have to go no further than Bill Belichick to see what happens when your “way” or “method” no longer works. It’s a tale about as long as time. Just off the top of my head, Bobby Bowden was told “retire or we’ll fire you.” Same with Don Shula…and those guys were streets ahead of Whitt’s high point.

Personally, I’m willing to stick with…[Read more]

Prepare to be shocked. Scalley has stated publicly he wants more of an Urban Meyer type spread offense.
