Can Jayden Daniels be enough as a true freshman? Really?
I’m sure Herm was at the game promising him the starting spot over Jayden Daniels next year.
I don’t know the Jack Sears story, but Jayden Daniels didn’t have any conditions that I’m aware of, he was just a silent commit who flipped. What happened with Sears?
Utah landed Tuttle. Wilson was an afterthought. The TDS also would have taken Tuttle over Wilson if given the chance at the time. Where do you get this Utah mishandled Wilson nonsense?
I’m not sure how the Tuttle fiasco had any bearing on Jayden Daniels. Sounds like ASU just out pitched us at the end.
I really hope we don’t lose to ASU. It will be interesting if Jayden Daniels is the QB.
So basically, we lose Jayden Daniels because his mom didn’t want him to come to Utah even though it seemed like he wanted to come here. Then, we lose Puka even though his brother plays for Utah and his mom wanted him close to home. We just can’t catch a break can we?
I don’t believe Rising and Bowen count. Also, we’re ranked 6th by average rating on 247 which is more informative IMO considering the difference in available scholarships.
We’ve had some great runningbacks at Utah, but Wilmore is easily the highest rated that we’ve ever had… Honestly, the Jayden Daniels loss tainted this recruiting cycle, but Rising’s transfer mostly neutralized it. We missed on some of the biggest names, but those were all long shots. Overall this was a better recruiting year than many are giving credit for. With Bam, Laumea, Rising and Wilmore…I’m feeling pretty good. Would it be better if we picked up some of the big names like Nacau and To’oto’o? Sure!…but we have to be honest with ourselves in where we rank in the pecking order, and realize that it takes a lot of time to move up. Fans are impatient. It takes a lot of time to build a reputation like the big contenders.
Hopefully, Jones will qualify on the academic side as that would be some great icing in the cake.
After the Jayden Daniels debacle I’m not holding my breath
