Just a guy.

Please educate me on the last Utah Utes football player that came to Utah after being charged with robbery, conspiracy to commit robbery and assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. I’ll wait.

Some perspective is needed…Muhsin Muhammad was arrested because, by having a gun in the glove compartment in his car, he violated his probation from an earlier charge of possession of marijuana. This is essentially a victimless crime.

Now, compare that with Bridges’ transgressions, which was robbery, conspiracy to commit robbery and assault a…[Read more]

Really two totally different issues…As a member of the Spartans, Muhsin Muhammad ran afoul of the law in 1993, when campus police discovered a gun in the glove compartment of his car. This was a violation of his probation from an earlier charge of possession of marijuana.

Now, compare that with Bridges’ crime, which was robbery, conspiracy to…[Read more]

Dorian Singer, otherwise known as how to wreck your football career in 10 easy lessons, is the poster child for everything that could go wrong with a portal move. The guy went from being projected as a borderline 1st RD draft pick to an UDFA. You think he’s suffering from buyer’s remorse right about now? And JJ was nowhere near the level of…[Read more]

This is an excerpt from the arrest warrant:

Thanks, but no thanks.

Arkansas is routinely a bottom tier team in the SEC. Not entirely sure what the thought process was with regards to this decision. I can’t imagine that whatever NIL package Arkansas put together was significantly greater than what he would have received at Utah. So, you leave the place where you’re the undisputed #1 RB on a winning team to go…[Read more]

I get it. Thanks for the elaboration.

Just keep in mind that Bridges is no high school kid. 2024 will be his sixth college football season and he’ll turn 24 later this year. I just don’t want some one season transfer to disturb the chemistry of the team because he has a chaotic life. We already went through an episode like that during the Thomas years.

Don’t know how you can get past the fact that he threatened to kill someone with a loaded weapon while in the commission of a felony. I wish him well as he gets his life together but not as a part of the Utah football team.

I don’t even get excited when we bring in guys that have been good in other schools. Just because you did it there, doesn’t mean you’ll do it at Utah. Brewer is Exhibit A in this train of thought…he was a four year starter at Baylor and the second leading passer in the school’s history and we saw what happened. Hartman at Notre Dame is…[Read more]

I have season tickets and have watched every Utah game this season. This is the worst we’ve looked by far this season. The team literally shit the bed in the second half. It’s been a while since I’ve seen team miss so many easy shots. Utah has to win games like this if it hopes to make it to the dance. Hard to see them making it with just a…[Read more]

Eagle, threatening to kill someone with a firearm is some serious stuff. Maybe the pros can rationalize having someone like that on a team but Utah?

I have to imagine that all of those offers were for backup positions. There’s no way that Barnes is better than any of the leading QBs already present at those schools.

Thanks. I was going off the CBS Sports website which had ASU as the home team for that game.

ASU will definitely be easier of the two teams. They got blown out by BYU at home and have a couple of other bad losses. That being said, Utah isn’t good enough yet to take any team for granted on the road.

The victim reported Bridges pointed a gun at him and threatened to kill him during the April 15, 2021, incident, police said.

Is this really the type of guy we want to introduce into the locker room? That’s some straight up gangsta shit.

If Utah keeps winning, they won’t stay unranked for long. A couple more victories and their record will be impossible to ignore.

Just a question, has Pittman committed to coming back? He’ll be 24 years old well before the start of the football season. As a guy with limited NFL prospects and given his extensive injury history, you’d wonder how much more gas he’s got left in the tank.

Keita needs to be a legal resident of the USA for at least five years before he can apply for US citizenship. Keep in mind that, in order to receive NIL and be treated like any US born player, all he has to have is legal residency (known colloquially as a “green card”), not citizenship.
