Sigh…Are the Utes looking at any other QBs?

[Dwight89]

Ugh. His comments definitely have me concerned. Looks like we’ll have a price to pay if Shelley continues to play well and we win the South. 

[Crazyforu]

If that “price” is having a good QB for another 3 years in Shelley, that is a great “price” to pay.

[Dwight89]

Oh no doubt about that. we’ll just have to hope we can get someone this cycle that would be a serviceable backup if that’s the case.

We’ll get a JC insurance policy, go in to next season with Tyler and Jason, and focus on the next cycle. It will work out. No more “Tuttle-mania” for this observer. 

[FtheY]

If we don’t sign one, I wonder if we will scheme differently to minimize snaps – meaning, more wildcat, covey, trick plays, etc. 

On the flip side, we still have Lisk as well. Don’t know much about him, but everything I’ve heard has been great. 

[AgouraUte]

He definitely wants early playing time, not gonna happen next year at Utah. I personally think we should move on to a kid who is willing to put in the time to learn the system. 

[Dwight89]

We’ll be recruiting 3* QB’s only if that’s the case. Unfortunately nowadays highly recruited kids want to play. Sometimes their talent and ability merits early playing time and sometimes it doesn’t, so I’m not sure that attitude is the best approach either. 

[Crazyforu]

Man, you are negative. Maybe try and be positive for once, you may find it is much more enjoyable.

[Crazyforu]

Let me ask you this, have you ever heard of a kid visiting a school, then outright saying that he hated it?

Utah has been in the game with this kid for a VERY long time. He just visited the school, had a good time. Of course it is fresh on his mind, and he is going to say good things about them.

Anything could happen at this point, I wouldn’t take his comments though as anything more than at face value. If he ultimately chooses ASU, good for him. I have a hunch though that things will be just fine up on the hill.

[RiseasUtes]

I agree, heaven forbid the kid enjoyed his other official visits.  Nothing in that article indicates that Utah is out of it.  He says it’s down to ASU, Cal, and Utah.  So he dropped UCLA, I think that’s a good thing.  I hope we get him obviously, but the kid has a lot to think about while also trying to win his championship games(semi and final).  

[AZUTE]

Everyone take a deep breath and step away from the ledge.

How many of these stories have you read where the recruit said things like.

That trip sucked it was awful. I hated everything about that school. The Coaches are idiots.

The key is going to be the in home visits at the end of the month.

Kyle vs Herm

The early playing time thing is a myth every kid says that.

Recruits just want a chance to complete for playing time which he will be given. If he’s the best he’ll play.

The other thing is Herm is going to change the O at ASU to suit more of a drop back pro style QB and that doesn’t fit JD’s style of play.

ASU has two very good underclassmen QBs on the roster already in Ryan Kelly and
Dillion Sterling-Cole plus a commitment from 4* QB Joey Yellen.

The problem with your post is that Daniels didn’t say anything close to this when it came to Utah.

The best we got was “good vibes”

Will be very suprised if he signs with Utah.

[Utah]

Huh. So wearing Utah gear in his games….yeah, he probably didn’t like his visit or something like that….

[gothamute]

No, we got a lot more than “good vibes”. You need to read this:

you must have only read this:

[AZUTE]

Then you know what????

There will be another Daniels in 2020 and beyond and he’ll look at Utah’s roster and say they have a graduating senior and only one scholarship QB on the roster and I can probably play early there.

Utah football will continue with or without him

[PhillyUte]

The only thing is that if Daniels doesn’t come to Utah, we are probably also losing his 4 star wide receiver teammate who is already committed. 

[Utah]

Ha ha. No. They are separate. He wants to be at Utah, Utah wants him and those around him are pushing him to Utah. 

Its not a package deal. Not even close. 

[Central Coast Ute]

Not necessarily. Just because the Hallandale trio came to Utah doesn’t mean that kids from the same high school always go to the same college. In fact, it’s usually the exact opposite.
