what the heck? A million for being a below average college basketball player? If that is true it honestly makes me angry. Not because he’s getting paid, but because there are people in this world that would rather throw millions of dollars at their favorite basketball team to pay their players rather than using that money for good. There is a lot…[Read more]

Well, good luck to him in Upstate South Carolina…if he’s getting $1M from Clemson based on his performance last year, he must have a great agent.

There was a game-time decision not to play Rising.

All I know is that Whit better come up with some way to fake a career-ending injury for Devon Dampier so he doesn’t get poached.

good one for sure, but no help.

Very good.

Admittedly, Krindorr demonstrates an ability to be less biased than I am. I told myself I wasn’t going to drink any of the off-season koolaid this year….BUT when I started hearing all of the reports on Dampiers, I said fill up my Stanley! It tastes soooo good when it hits the lips!!

The insiders who have shared what they saw in Spring practice…[Read more]

Disagree so HARD on DT. Vimahi was hurt last year also and is a 3 year starter. Tanavasa is fine when healthy well that’s the point and he won’t have another stud DT next to him like he has since he has been at UT. We still need another guy but we are way better at DT

TDS defense is going to struggle this year. There backers are good but they…[Read more]

I’ll take a look at the places I disagreed with you (even if slightly) and try to give a bit more info on my thought process

QB: Krindor gives slight edge to Utah, MDUte gives HUGE edge to Utah
I wouldn’t be surprised if this ends up being a HUGE edge for Utah, definitely think it’s in play. This one has a lot of variability, and I’m trying not…[Read more]

LB and D-Line have arguments, but I did end up calling each position group with a slight edge. Keep in mind that Jack Kelly and Isaiah Glasker (both BYU LBs) were HM All-Conference performers. LB is absolutely a position of strength for Utah….but it’s also really really good at BYU. And (reasonably enough) a lot of folks here don’t know BYU…[Read more]

Practice…

I’m not convinced JB scheme uses TE and even if it does that TE is best suited for Andrews to max touches.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Andrews is RB1 or RB2 when the season ends.

Wherever Jay Hill is coaching the ST advantage should go to his team. I know he isn’t the ST coach at BYU, but he’s just so dang good in that regard I can’t overlook the fact that he’s at BYU. For that reason alone I’d give the ST advantage to TSPP

Agree, you almost have to put OL and RB together for ‘run game’ rather than separate even though OL also has pass protection. It’s going to be interesting with Dampier as he will also rely on OL blocking when he scrambles or options to run. I would expect that we will have to weather a few more INT than before (and Whitt will have to swallow his…[Read more]

Great posts krindor MDute and Rick. I enjoyed your evaluations of the teams. I drank the koolaide last year and can’t get the red dye ( from choking on it) out of my Utah gear. So I’m a little reserved on wearing my red goggles. BYU has upped their game and we have lost some recruiting advantages.

One X factor that wasn’t mentioned above. Last…[Read more]

Krindor, I really only disagree at LB, but not much. I would call it equal. Also, Utha lost a lot of studs on the Dline. I would probably call that overall equal. I hate to say this, but I think his may Utah’s weakest defense in a decade or more. However, surprises always seem to pop up, like Bishop, Lloyd, Anae, Chase Hansen, etc. I hope a…[Read more]

Hunter Andrews > Ryan > Bentley and > King

It’s April and I miss football. So I’m here for it all!
