I was at porcupine for the last day of their October fest menu yesterday. The spetzel, sausage, red cabbage, corned beef, sauerkraut and Reuben were on point. My friend asked, compare last years Utah team to this year. I said, we don’t quite have the same dudes like we had last year. No Covey, no Kuithe, no Fatheringham in his 4th year, no Tavion at the level from last year, no Bam crashing down on the DT to open a massive hole. No Mika Tafua, and Devin Lloyd of course. It’s still a good team but not quite at last years level. Everyone knows this but when you write it out, it’s a significant difference. I guess what I’m saying is if we win the PAC 12 this year it will likely come on the arm and feet of Cam Rising or some other duds will need to step up. I think JQJ could step up if he can learn to run behind his pads more, otherwise he’s going to get hurt. I think Yasmin has the athleticism but should be on the jugs machine 3 times a day. Dixon’s been good, needs more reps. Vele is real good but seems like he could take another half step. I wish Barton would take over Kareem Reid’s spot, there, I said it. I think Vaki is the real deal and a future top 3 round NFL pick but he’s wry green as far as reps. In a year where Tavion has been somewhat MIA I miss Ty Jordan. I miss that guy. He was a dude for sure and was so fun to watch and he was always positive. Anyway, those are my morning ramblings today.
