They were correct in making Scalley the ‘HC in waiting’. The incident was made bigger than it was by the culture of the moment in time. Scalley has and is paying more than necessary for the mistake. Sitake is much down the line given how much the defense improved going from Sitake to Scalley. Hill is a good coach with the next step being…[Read more]

No doubt, Checketts has some talent and great connections to bring to his show. But when he brings a guest, he talks too much living little time for the guest and often takes the guest to a spot to make them awkwardly agree to his point of view. When he has a point, he needlessly and emotionally repeats it. He could improve by letting his guest…[Read more]

I was under the impression that Spence Checketts was go to be replaced. Until then, welcome to his many interests that are not sports related with a side of ‘how could you disagree with me’.

I agree all conference champs should go to the playoffs. However, the way to do that is to have a playoff for the P5 and one for the mid majors separately. The mid majors might not think so at first but they would enjoy it more and make more money. For the P5, to make it to the conference championship is pretty much making the playoffs so all…[Read more]

It sounds likely that he made a mistake if he was on, as an example, the USC meal plan. However, kids like all of us make mistakes, should pay a penalty and be allowed back. It would be better if he had never made a mistake but it happens. Whitt though, has a very good record of taking a player that has had trouble, giving them a list of things…[Read more]

Not my first choice. However, as it relates to travel, UNLV would be the closest school for a road trip and with lots of options to stay over. But, you can play the game, here is a bunch of schools but which one is not like the others…

If there was realignment, a clean thing for playoffs would be to reduce the P5 to P4, That would make more sense.

To me, the Utes are like every team my kids played on. I want them to do well but I will support them even in years they struggle. Those years when a team catches lightning in a bottle, it is much more special to the fans that came up thru the growing pains than it can ever be for the folks that wait to see them favored to win the national…[Read more]

Already I don’t regret it. At the time Utah made a good decision. Over time all schools have recruits turn out better or worse than expected. I am sure when he committed he could have still come to Utah if he wanted, he would not have been turned down. Since he went to USC with even more QB competition, it is clear to me he preferred that…[Read more]

Part of the problem is coaches moving on is more disruptive than players moving on. I don’t think it is right to restrict players more than coaches as it relates to changing schools. Make a rule that applies to both.

Sorry, the image copy didn’t go thru. It is a message from Moureen Maxwell that references Ute Hub. Some lady wants to talk…

Looks encouraging. He needs to move the Pac 12 offices to a more affordable location like Las Vegas where also 3 people can meet without a zoom call. Next, since he is not a college football guy, I hope he gets a second in command that is. Still, first up, fix the TV problems and that will go a long, long way. He also has the clear example of…[Read more]

But what if the Dad didn’t need a job but needed a car upgrade? Much less money.

Very understandable. I also lean in on my support for the current coach. In 50 years only Jac and Boylen to some degree bothered me, football and basketball. To me it is kind of like the view of your kids in sports, just remaining positive. But then, I’m not much up for negative energy. I try not to be merely a fan of winning, if your more a…[Read more]

I am fine with a taller LB, think Trevor Reilly. We have used the hybrid LB before with success that also creeps up on the end of the line. He is on a development line that is faster and higher than his brother.

There is still time to go after wing players and forwards. We may be bit by a couple of players that have to sit out a year but there is still opportunity to put together a team that is not a drop-off from last year. The staff just got completed so now we will see how well they attack the portal players. Utah currently is a good option for…[Read more]

I have heard Bishop is Ritchie 2.0 and he has had the advantage of a spring practice. Hopefully we can look forward to summer workouts with position groups without masks.

RB – 8 – We start over however, I think we will put the pieces together and they will benefit by improvements in all the other offensive groups. This group will surprise.
