Keeping things private isn’t necessarily sweeping it under the rug. The HC office isn’t going to fo aire the dirty laundry of everyone who violated the code but didn’t commit any crime.

In JR’S case, because there’s a legal filing of course its public.

I don’t understand why you’d be shocked, BYU his far more orthodox than they used to be and they uphold the honor code. A decade ago their BBall player got kicked out of school because of honor code violations. Ive seen nothing that suggests BYU would sweep it under the rug with the way the school has been run.

Had this been in the 1980’s, then sure.

I kinda view the mountain states as one big related geography, even though there are sub regions within. Usually when im chatting with my Euro colleagues, I say the mountain states in the western US or something.

If i were to move there, I’d aim for the Paradise Valley area, not sure i could afford it yet, but I love it. It is alone of the rich rich area.

I’ll simply take the QB being healthy for 10 games.

Will be interesting to see what happens with Retzlaff. If he doesn’t play for BYU, they could end up having what happened to us last season.

Wouldn’t be surprised, but to be fair, some of our fans on X do a plenty good job of doing that without BYU’s interference.

I was going to suggest reporting to Twitter and getting that acct taken down for spoofing the site, but apparently Uteshub.com is a thing and has Utes related stuff. Looks like a site that may be auto generated with scripts, pulls and posts latest videos and auto updates rankings or something.

You’re doing God’s work Tony.

I wonder if there is like an AI based tool or solution or something that can auto do this, like some open source thing on Github?

I’m not sure it will crash and burn but it will look very different.

The most likely outcome, IMO, is that a new governing body for the top level of CFB and that the players will be able to collectively bargain. Once this happens everything will be reigned in. Contacts will be enforceable, transfer rules set, payment models established, etc.…[Read more]

They are trying to create something that will get the maximum number of viewers. If casual fans and fans of teams outside those conferences stopped watching them, it would make an impact. But it won’t happen.

And honestly, the only power we fans gave is to stop watching and engaging. I, for one, refuse to watch a Big-10 or SEC game. They are destroying sport, so I won’t watch them. Unfortunately, too many big12 or acc or other conference fans will watch.

I won’t blame any of you one bit if you abandoned college sports. You make excellent points…[Read more]

Is that true about Oregon State?! Crazy.

And yeah, Utah is in some trouble if NIL doesn’t get regulated soon. BYU seems to have a the benefactors they need, but I don’t know that Utah does. Regardless, I’m trying to just be chill with it and enjoy Utah football. I’ll love my Utes, watch them, and cheer for them regardless of whether they are…[Read more]

Quit acting like BYU is doing something unethical or out of the norm. They are operating the same way every school – who’s smart and embracing the current wild west of the College sports – do. And it’s most likely not BYU out tampering with our players, it’s likely the players’ agents going to BYU (and any other number of schools) and trying to…[Read more]

Honestly, considering that’s the game as it is today, I’d have no problem with Utah playing strong in the money throwing game for players. I don’t like it, but I’m fine with it conisdering the environment. There’s no reason to suck in the name of altruism.

The only way it changes is if the players can collectively bargain.
