Well, I will tell you this…the University of Miami didn’t have a basketball team between 1971-1985 and, until the late 70s, were an absolute also-ran in football. I mean, I remember seeing them lose to Florida A&M (a then Division 2 team) in Tallahassee in 1979. They were mediocre at best and usually bad…so bad, that the university…[Read more]

There are people like you and there are people like me in the college football environment. I watch college sports because I have an emotional tie to a couple of schools by virtue of my attendance in those schools.

If either, or both, of those schools are relegated to also ran status or drop sports altogether, then I’m not going to transfer my…[Read more]

Then, for large swathes of the country, they will go the way of the WFL or USFL.

They have to do something….if they don’t, college sports is going to go the way of the dodo. I’m giving it one more season to see what develops before I pull the plug on my “in person” fandom and start devoting my entertainment dollars solely to traveling and the Utah Mammoth.

Jake Heaps is Russell Wilson’s personal QB coach. I didn’t know that.

Yeap, same here. What compounds the issue is that even if he comes to Utah, there’s no guarantee that he stays beyond one season.

It might not be fine…as an analogy, Utah might be a silent film star at the start of the sound era, and we all know what happened then. Unless strict, formal guidelines are placed on college football and basketball, the only thing that’s going to matter is how much money you can throw at those programs to keep them competitive. It really is an…[Read more]

That could be the answer. Maybe the order of merit changes based on what’s going on in the college sports world.

I’m taking a wait and see approach. Miro Little was supposed to be much more of a finished product, and we saw how that relationship turned out. This guy is younger and much less experienced than Little. If he can play 8-10 productive minutes a game in his first season, I’d call that a win. Another thing about videos like this…keep in mind…[Read more]

99/100?

The only time I ever parked at the stadium was when I was going to the U. After that, I’ve always taken TRAX to games.

A technique I used last season for Utah Hockey Club tickets is just drive to the arena about 30 minutes before puck drop and continually check the ticket prices on various apps. I got in to a handful of games for less than $20 a ticket.

I received the same email as well. My tickets just added the $100 Crimson Club charge, so now I’m up to $350 per ticket. Not a big deal but I expect to see some definite improvement this season if the university wants me to continue reupping.

Tony, I hope that you’ll go to the Wyoming game. I’ll be there as I always wanted to see a game at the stadium that’s at the highest altitude in the US. It’s also within easy driving distance from SLC.

Amen Rick, amen…

Being honest though, there are more than a few posters calling BS on that narrative, In addition, the original post has twice as many down votes than thumbs up.

If ever….maybe in some unforeseen future where we both make the playoffs…and then the network(s) will have a field day trotting out highlights from those contests.

Oh Tony, that’s the other part…I feel no affinity, at all, for the Big XII…honestly, and this might sound sacrilegious, I would rather be in a regional conference like the MWC provided Utah got the same money, at least, as in the Big XII…I rather enjoyed playing teams like Air Force, Wyoming, etc…plus they made neat road trips as well…I…[Read more]
