Bajema seems like a slightly better version of Lazar. They are almost the exact same size.

If Exacte doesn’t shoot better he’s going to have a hard time finding minutes. That isn’t a knock on him BTW, just looking at our roster we haven’t added anyone great, but the end of our bench looks infinitely better than it has for years now. We now have at least 11 guys that I would be comfortable playing if I were coach.

I would LOVE IT if we…[Read more]

Relax friend. Your post wasn’t bad, I just found it a tad ironic, thats all. You are one of the few posters that keep this place alive when it isn’t football season.

How is this post any different?

Yep, the way our offense is run, and the way Rising plays, there simply aren’t enough touches for the second wide receiver (or 3rd) to get more than 500 yards receiving in a season. I don’t think Kuithe cames back if he doesn’t believe he’s going to be option number 1 on virtually every passing down.

I almost said Parks as well, but when you look at his stats, it’s hard to imagine he’ll be more productive than he was last year when you consider the other guys. He had over 400 yards of receiving. It is certainly possible to eclipse that mark, but I kind of hope he doesn’t, as long as that means others are getting more touches (Vele, Pittman,…[Read more]

My out of the box breakout player prediction #1: Miki Suguturaga – I don’t think he’ll play a ton (unless someone gets hurt, which is honestly quite likely), but I think he’ll be used in short yardage and redzone situations and he’ll catch a handful of very important balls (several TDs) on simple routes that the defense is not expecting.

#2:…[Read more]

I like the Medlock prediction. Karene Reid just isn’t quite cutting it athletically IMO. Medlock would be great.

Jordan Wynn… If there is a name that reminds me that I am not a spring chicken anymore, it’s that one. Feels like he was here sooooo long ago, but it hasn’t been that long.

Our bench was pretty shallow last year, and that is being kind. This year it should be improved. We added Lovering, Erickson, Bajema, Smith and Whalin. We also have Exacte, Keita, and Tarlac returning. All of those guys are playable (with the exception of maybe Whalin since he just got off his mission and who knows what condition his game/body is…[Read more]

I don’t know… In many ways we’d have a better shot at the playoff, and this could be enticing to recruits not good enough to play for blue bloods. We rarely compete with those teams for recruits anyway.

whatever… None of this means anything. When anything that actually matters happens, we will all know about it within hours of it happening and there won’t be any question about whether or not it actually happened.

What are the potential consequences of this?

LOL… It was a two letter response. Last time I checked “ok” is a pretty emotionless/neutral term. No need to get worked up over a two letter word. Historically, being involved with the elite 11 hasn’t been a good indicator of success for Ute QBs.

Things I did not say in this post or anywhere else: Wilson is bad, Wilson is overrated, Elite 11…[Read more]

I have never insulted anyone on this board, but if belittling me makes you feel better about yourself go ahead I guess.

If ad hominem, logically fallacious arguments are your thing then you do you.

If you disagree with my opinion go ahead and explain why. I Don’t think this particular opinion is all that controversial. The kids that get p…[Read more]

My thoughts exactly. Doesn’t mean anything. Wasn’t Nate as well? Elite 11 stopped being a good indicator of QB talent years ago. It honestly seems like a paid for accolade.

Ok

I get that he’s well ahead, but is he ready to play?
