Yeah the reality is the play on the field is bad. The last two games weren’t “quality losses.” Arizona is a very mediocre team and ASU is better, but not a great team either. A 10-2 Utah team might be on the bubble, but with what we’ve seen a 10-2 Utah team is a pipe dream.

Why in the hell would Jay Hill want the DC position at Utah when he’s already the DC at the TDS?! If anything, he would want the Utah HC position, and IMO judging by this season results alone between TDS and Utah, I would think he would be the frontrunner for the Utah HC position, not Scalley.

Yeah the Jim Mora bit is very fitting for that question. Utah isn’t a good football team. Not close to the playoffs. Would love for them to turn it around, but a 6-0 finish just to get in the conversation isn’t happening.

That’s exactly who I’m thinking will take over the DC spot if Scalley gets promoted. Good recruiter, proven results as a DB coach, to me all signs point to him.

At this point, ybu is a much better team and will be heavy favorites to beat Utah. They dominated Arizona today and already have wins against K-State and SMU. Utah is looking at a 7-5 season.

I’m more optimistic, primarily b/c I still believe we have a talented roster.
1) I don’t know the extent of the injuries, but I would hope we get Reid, O’Toole, Tanuvasa, etc. back before BYU.
2) We almost couldn’t have played worse offensively in either of the last two games and, as crazy as it sounds, we could’ve won those games if a few…[Read more]

Shame on Whitt and Lud letting Cam dictate who plays. Of course he wants to play. Wilson, Rose, Huard all want to play as well. What a dumb comment by Whitt. “He has won a bunch of games for us”. I was at the game $1500 to fly my 2 boys down with me and every football illiterate fan could see Cam could not run or throw. What was unb…[Read more]

Haha, what have you seen from this team that puts them and the playoff in the same sentence? Arizona and ASU aren’t great teams. Arizona just got dominated by ybu today and is 3-3. They might not make a bowl, yet they won in SLC. ASU is an improving team, but not a great team. A playoff level team would have smoked them. Even the win…[Read more]

I figured it would be Shah.

Yeah there is no way Hill returns to Utah in a DC role, especially with how good he is doing as the DC at ybu. Utah State has a job opening and he might take that, or he might take another MW level opening. He was good at Weber State and has turned around ybu’s defense. He isn’t going to do another lateral move.

There is the argument that…[Read more]

KW has run his course as HC. KW leaves when he wants to so any firing talk is silly. Hopefully he has sensible people in his camp advising him to hand off the program to a new generation of coaches before it gets worse. A 7 year age/experience gap between the starting and backup QB speaks volumes, along with many other issues discussed on the…[Read more]

…ain’t nobody reading that.
I’ve bought into the hype to many times with this team. I’ve stood up for this program, coaches and players for decades.
I’ve now taken off the Ute goggles and tralize this team hasn’t been dominant for years!! Yes it’s had some nice wins here and there. Yes they’ve beaten a few teams they weren’t supposed to.…[Read more]

I am more interested in their coach every passing week, same with Boise St.

1. Would Jay Hill, who’s older than Scalley, and has already been an HC for almost a decade want to work for a first-year HC? Hard to say but I know I wouldn’t.
2. Scalley has been the Utah DC for nine seasons and his salary has slowly been raised to its current amount. Hard to believe, at least from where I’m standing, that Utah immediately…[Read more]

My heart breaks for Cam- I don’t question his heart or his desire. I feel bad that I joked about him cashing checks etc. It felt like he still couldn’t palm the ball. He was tossing the ball not throwing it even before the knee/ ankle.

I don’t think that’s true Miami. I’m pretty sure he would not hesitate to jump to Utah.
1) Utah can likely pay him quite a bit more money. Scalley is making $2Mish per year, right? From what I’ve read, Jay Hill makes about $1M.
2) Even though BYU is having a better year than us (which has been the case like once every 5+ years for the last two…[Read more]

Yeah, too bad you brought it up. BYU is most definitely having its way with a Wildcat team that handled Utah pretty easily. Still have to play the game though…

Jay Hill wants to be an HC again. Jay Hill is not leaving a better BYU program and making a lateral move to a worse Utah program. Jay Hill will only come to Utah if he’s hired as the head coach. Simple as all that.
