AZUTE

Their hate is above and beyond just normal rivalry smack.

They are so jealous and upset that Utah has come in and stolen their thunder they can’t face the day

Any Utah praise sends them in a tailspin they have a hard time getting out of.

Just when they thought they were out of Utah’s shadow Whit tucks them right back into the darkness.

Craig Smith is Coaching for his job. Miss the Big Dance and there is gonna be pressure for Harlan to fire him. An NIT bid maybe gets him another year as it shows progress but make no mistake the goal this season was a tournament bid and the season will be deemed a failure if Utah doesn’t get one.

As far as Worster I’ve heard Oregon

20 wins is the magic number

I think you need wins over Stanford, Cal, OSU and one win in the Pac12 tournament

That would be 20-13 and get Utah an at-large bid.

Some speculation online that Smith will be fired if the Utes miss the Big Dance.

Utah can’t afford to fire Smith after just 3 seasons.

He’s more than likely gonna get 2 more unless the team completely falls apart next season and they only win 10 games or something.

This was a senior experienced team and they have completely underperformed. Not sure what’s gonna happen next season when this team has 6-8 new players on it.

If someone needs to wear the black hat in the new big12 it might as well be Utah.

I’ve never understood the Zoobs fascination to be liked by everyone. It seems kind of weird in a creepy insecure kind of way.

If opposing fans don’t want to come to RES good stay away.

If Utah can somehow beat Cal, Stanford, at home and Oregon St on the road that is 18 wins and probably gets them an NIT invite.

Which is improvement over last season’s 17 wins and no post season.

In that scenario Smith keeps his job. If he loses to one of the Bay Area schools at home and OSU on the road and misses any postseason play Harlan h…[Read more]

So let’s talk replacements.

Would love to hear everyone’s idea of the gut to right the ship.

The list has to start and end with Alex Jensen

Can’t afford the buyout. Still paying for Coach K’s. For that reason he’ll get at least one more year.

0-10 from 3
Is this Coaching or talent?

He was all but hired to be Utah’s next head Coach when Harlan and another big money donor went in another direction.

The contract was drawn up and just needed to be signed. Alex was in a very solid position with the Utah Jazz at the time and was considered an up and coming HC candidate in the NBA.

i.e. The timing wasn’t great but make no mis…[Read more]

Harlan went rouge and hired his guy(Smith)when he could’ve had Alex Jensen or Jonnie Bryant both whom would have been better.

A week ago Utah was all but guaranteed an ncaa tournament bid. A week later it’s all but gone.

Another year of Smith only prolongs the program’s downfall

Where are all the Craig Smith homers now???

This team is soft had no heart can’t make FTs talent poor

Smith can’t coach them up and nothing will change next year cause he’s a horrible recruiter.

Utah won’t win ten games in the big12 next season.

The only saving grace is Smith will be fired after next year.

Please don’t go Zoob and blame the Refs.

Utah fought hard but just doesn’t have the horses right now.

Make FTs and it’s a different game.

As an analyst he can’t coach or recruit if the NCAA gave a rip and paid attention to this stuff which they don’t.

He will be doing both at Utah.

This is only Utah’s first on staff analyst most of the blue blood programs already have 3-5 on staff.

If Keba transfers it will be just to play for a better team. He’s not eligible for NIL benefits.

lol! Craig Smith is lost

This team could handle any injury to any other player or position but this team without a PG is a death blow.

If Smith and Worster are out for any significant amount of time there is maybe 3 or 4 wins left on the schedule

Hahaha down only 3. How did that turn out for ya? No PG Utah could easily lose 7 of their next 8 games including tonight.

Welcome to the NIT……..maybe

Ross Apo is a private WR Coach. He has not joined the Utah staff in any way shape or form. He has garnered a good reputation as a private WR Coach and makes more money as such which is way he joined any coaching staff anywhere.

He has a bone to pick with byu because they haven’t recruited some of the kids he’s coached. He has sent them info on…[Read more]
