OffensiveLineEnthusiast started the topic Explain the Nickel and Snowden in the forum Football 6 days, 19 hours ago
I need a ball-knower. In my understanding, the nickel back comes in when the formation calls for an extra defensive back to replace a linebacker.
My confusion comes from Smith Snowden being called the nickel. In spring ball, Whitt would say that Scooby Davis had one outside cornerback position locked up, Snowden had the nickel locked up, and they…[Read more]

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic The 'NIL Train', All Aboard? in the forum Football 6 days, 20 hours ago
As a former college athlete my biggest complaint was not being able to make money and play. Pay the players every two weeks a set amount (pay for play). Everyone on the roster gets the same. Simple solution for most players. NIL is where the problem lies. There are very few players that have NIL value. All NIL deals must be approved and have…[Read more]

Well said, TruckStop.
NIL is here, but there needs to be rules, and here are none. It has gotten out of hand, and I hate it. I will remain a Utah football fan, but I am scaling it back.
I will not contribute a dime to kids who will be making more in a year than I ever did before I retired. I will contribute my hard-earned money to causes that…[Read more]

I’ve attended a few of these over the years. My opinion is the food is never worth the cost so now I just go to the tailgate area and mingle with opposing fans. Always a fun and interesting experience.

We will expect a detailed report after the game.

Nah, my interest on college sports is slowly dying by the day. It’s not that I don’t think the players don’t deserve some kind of compensation for putting their body on the line or generating revenue for a school, it’s that it’s gotten out of control. Guys that haven’t even suited up in college are getting millions of dollars to play football…[Read more]

Jim Vanderhoof replied to the topic Who will be Scalley's DC? And what is Jay Hill's future? in the forum Football 1 week ago
Interesting takes!! Thanks for sharing. AZute Jgore Extra Medium all make sense. A little humor might be what does Jay Hills wife want? They both have had health issues. He is definitely in a prime spot for a big name G5 or P4 HC. Being a successful HC at Weber state is a big feather in his cap to go along with being a successful DC at a P4 program.

DC will be Shaw or someone else outside the program. It will not be Hill.
Hill has been using some underhanded recruiting tactics and has burned some bridges at the U. Shocking.

Just heard about the 3 away game alumni tailgates (at UCLA, at WVU, and at that team down south).
I’m thinking of going to the UCLA one. Looks like it’s $40 to get in; anybody know if it’s worth it?

No worries what so ever brother. I’m by no means an absolute. Any news or info/perspective is good
I do believe Hill was using byu as a stepping stone to a HC gig but that was before his heart issue.

Ute Dub replied to the topic The area we can make the biggest improvement this season? in the forum Football 1 week, 1 day ago
I slightly disagree. In the past, Utah has had decent seasons with mediocre QB play when they had a strong running game. Last year the running game was fragile. A K-Whitt defense with a top tier running game, I like our chances.

Could go back to soft helmets and pads. Would say leather but I would bet technology has come further along that there’s better options.

Strange topic, but ok.
I think most fans on this board aren’t against NIL. Most are on board.
It’s the rules or lack thereof where some fans are starting to tired, combined with transfer portal and the lack of enforcement of any rules, which honestly college has always had a tough time with.

But when you link some research they screech and plug their ears. Here’s a message for the pedophile lovers:

Depends on what you mean by unverified. If witness, records, and photos aren’t considered verification then Trump will win a libel suit. Then again maybe the wall street journal knows that (obviously) and didnt publish something calling the famously litigious sitting potus a pedophile without sources. You know… like how all valid journalist…[Read more]

So, you can’t point to where I said it but are going to fall back on your illogical inference? Got it.
Love that you are buying the unverified Wall Street Journal claim as gospel truth. It plays well with your clearly unhealthy obsession of the man.
