chinngiskhaan replied to the topic Utah WRs – system vs talent in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

I’m perfectly happy running 3 TE sets with one WR in the Covey mold if that is what our personnel strengths are, and it seems to be much easier for us to recruit TEs than top level outside WR types. I knew going into the season that a combination of Covey and Kuithe would be almost impossible to stop, and that proved correct. Kuithe types are a…[Read more]

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic While I don’t much care about recruiting rankings in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

I understand everything you said. However, it still doesn’t explain why teams that are clearly worse, and have been for a long time, are getting better recruits than us.

If Kentucky can get a 5* player there is no reason why we shouldn’t be able to do so. Yes we have a type, but our coaches are clearly not great recruiters in regards to ran…[Read more]

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic While I don’t much care about recruiting rankings in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

And? There are terrible teams out there getting 5 star recruits and or many 4 stars.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic While I don’t much care about recruiting rankings in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

There ARE two sides to this coin though. While our ranking is lower, we are CLEARLY better than at least half the teams above us. Are we truly recruiting worse if our players end up better than theirs? Maybe we are just way better at player development. Or… our coaches are better at talent evaluation than the recruiting experts.

chinngiskhaan started the topic While I don’t much care about recruiting rankings in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

I gotta admit, it’s pretty crazy to see the teams ahead of us in the rankings. Kentucky? Arizona? There are a lot of teams that must be a less attractive destination than Utah that are somehow out recruiting us.
while I’m fine with where we are, on paper we should be able to attract better recruits than we are currently attracting.

If all he does is block like that when he’s called upon, he’s worth a scholarship for sure.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic Zach Moss in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

It’s obvious to everyone except their coaches and QB.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic Logan Kendall TE committed in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

If he’s the guy who I saw the tape of on here a few days ago, dude blocks like a crazy mofo. He’ll fit in well in the all purpose TE role.

chinngiskhaan started the topic I don’t care where kalani coaches in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

But I’m starting to think he has the potential to do less damage to our program if he stays put. The reality is, we don’t compete for recruits much these days. If he wins one recruiting battle with us out of a handful every year I am not worried.
also I think the real motivation for wanting him to go to Oregon is because some fans want byu fans to suffer.

ZERO POINTS
1 rebound, 1 assist.
a random trash can placed in the vicinity of the basket would get more rebounds in that amount of time.

It’s no big deal but compared to the winner Devin had much better stats.

The opportunity is just too good to pass up.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic yall….Utahs defense did this in a rebuilding year with freshman everywhere in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

I’m surprised our position coaches don’t get poached more often tbh.

chinngiskhaan started the topic Our next HC in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

I was thinking about our coaches and what an awesome job they have done recently… that got me thinking.
Why is Ludwig’s name never mentioned as a possible HC here? Is he not interested? Too old? I wouldn’t pick him over Scalley because of the age thing, but Luddy has done a fantastic job since returning… this year in particular. I can only…[Read more]

chinngiskhaan started the topic Just read through the comments on Addictedtoquack game threads in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

I don’t feel sorry for them at all. Terrible terrible fans… Some of their comments about our players/fans were pretty pathetic and frankly bigoted.
Couldn’t be happier that those losers had a miserable night at the hand of my team.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic This is what So Poo Poo is. Terrible people that laugh at in the forum They So Poo Poo 3 years, 7 months ago

What does any of that have to do with religious conviction? Being a fan of BYU and wanting their rival’s fans to have bad things happen to them doesn’t have anything to do with their religion. That’s just being a bad person.

If they were praying for bad things to happen, or doing bad things in the name of religion, that would be another story. In…[Read more]

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic I'm not crying, you're crying in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

We don’t know why he was crying. Not sure what his NFL situation is, but I assume that was his last game for Oregon. That’s not a bad reason to cry. Good on Nephi for supporting his brother.

It did seem a bit like his family was pulling for Noah to win… but that’s just from a few shots they showed.

chinngiskhaan started the topic my thoughts on the game in the forum Football 3 years, 7 months ago

My favorite Utah team of all time, as I’ve said several times. We can all learn a lot from the way these young men have handled adversity.
Coaching: What a masterful coaching job from Whitt. He doesn’t even think about taking any credit at all for one second. You can tell the seniors/outgoing juniors on this team really look up to him and respect…[Read more]

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic With Gach's 28 points last night, Chinngiskhaan should STFU going forward…. in the forum Basketball (Men) 3 years, 7 months ago

Gach’s improved decision making may be a result of the offensive scheme change instituted by Smith more than anything else.

Of course, it doesn’t really matter why he has maybe (only 5-6 games against mostly terrible competition) improved. Better is better, I don’t much care why.

The skill you mention would be outstanding for him if he had more…[Read more]

I don’t know. I don’t have a problem with whoever this guy is… but he apparently has a problem with me. Whatever. Doesn’t bother me.
