WOKE ALERT
So is it okay to say where it began spreading from Mr Moral Science? Please let me know because I certainly don’t want to be called xenophobic, as I (along with the CDC) am of the opinion that the virus spread from Wuhan China.
If I mistakenly referred to you as a Mr please don’t lecture me on male toxicity, being misogynistic or…[Read more]

I also read that at least 8 of these are grad transfers. Maybe 9.

I think I speak for a lot of people. If I had the physical tools to play D1 I would have gladly taken a “lesser” degree and thrown myself all in.
You will not find a player, at any stage in their life EVER say they wish they never played.
Plus, it’s a fallacy if you think sociology and communications are the only options for degrees. Axe Zane…[Read more]
89ute replied to the topic Key to tomorrow's win in the forum Football 4 years, 5 months ago
I don’t get the slight edge to Oregon in special teams. Their FG% sucks. 2nd to last in the conference at 54.5%. Oregon has always sucked at FG. We are 71.4%, middle of the conference.
Punting, we are the worst at 39.8, Oregon 43.0. They can have the 3 yards.
Punt return, Oregon is good. 2nd best in the conference 15.9 ave, we are…[Read more]

Here is why we are ranked above Oklahoma and why we will continue to be if we beat Oregon. OK was rollin’ strong until the K-St loss. Struggled with TCU and ISU while we continued to pummel the hell out of people.

You nailed it UtahFanSir. I think our program is pretty much going to be Wisconsin/Michigan St. type for all the reasons you mentioned. Wisc. & Mich.St have had some years identical to what we are experiencing and neither has found themselves rich in 4 stars as a result. I don’t think we will either.
And yes, Pace is harsh on the staff…[Read more]

The problem as I see it is trying to sync up our coached up recruits to the point we have no holes in the roster. I get Pace’s point, 4 star talent is practically ready to contribute the moment the join the program, Like JJ. Let take Blackmon and Burgess for example, I remember them quite well as frosh. They got a little special teams work but…[Read more]

Do you not remember the hell we went through building our roster to compete in a P5 conference? There is a HUGE discrepancy between P5 and G5 talent/rosters. (or BCS non BCS)
I’m one of the most red goggled Ute fans on the planet.
No way in hell would our 04 or 08 team go undefeated playing a BCS or P5 8-9 game schedule. No way!

MUSS interest is waning. In the past MUSS tickets used to sell out the day they became available. More often than not crashing the site due to the overload. Haven’t heard a story like that in years.

Don’t know about Bam’s injury. On a scale of 1 to 10 of my concerns, Bam is about a 1. Bam is a project, as he showed us during the two series he played against Washington.
I think Hans is spot on with his review back in August.

Going back about two decades there has only been one team that has won a national championship with less than 45 blue chip players on the roster. I think it may have been Oklahoma in 2000.
Stars matter folks, they really do. There are examples of 45+ blue chip rosters that don’t do anything. UCLA historically is one of them. They have dropped…[Read more]
