That doesn’t mean they won’t lie.

“Big 12 football programs will designate players as “available, probable, questionable, doubtful or out.” Basketball programs will indicate if players are “available, game-time decision or out.”

Maybe Whittingham’s next stop is the running Utes?

Everyone will be ‘questionable’ or a ‘game-time decision’. Easy way around it.

You know someone is going to come out with a full leg cast and crutches and be listed as game time decision on the books .

I’ve done the Denver – Cheyenne – Salt Lake drive a half dozen times each way and there isn’t much to keep you awake. Getting hotel rooms in Laramie is probably the same as Pullman, small town cashing in on limited accommodations.

It’s an 8 ET game so you’d probably be getting in to Denver around midnight or later. I guess it depends on the rest of your trip. With my own car, I’d stay in Cheyenne after the game and then leisurely drive down to Denver for your concert. But if you are flying, probably cheapest to stay two nights in Denver and return the rental car to the same place you got it.

Laramie is just one of those places that isn’t close to anywhere so I don’t know that there is a good solution. Just the best of a bunch of bad ones.

RB game is to be determined. Beck will not check Utah’s history but will probably do what he says, adapt to the talent. We could run in games to kill the clock but will mostly do what the game situation dictates. Whitt, I think, will initially let Beck do his thing and does not want to go down with previous offensive strategies. Right out of the shoot, UCLA will defend one or the other better and we will take what they give us.

The running game will be divided up between the RB, the QB, and I expect Andrews and Johnson may take some sweeps so possibly we run a bunch but RB1’s carries could be an average load. I do expect Dampier to run less than last year because there are more weapons.

I worry about Dampier tending towards “hero” ball. From his highlights, there were a number of times when he could have/should have given the ball to the RB, but kept it to run himself. This was also Huntley’s biggest problem and why Huntley’s best play came after he injured his knee and couldn’t run as much. A hero quarterback may have good numbers, but hampers an offense.

Also, if Dampier is our main running threat he won’t make it through the season. I’d like to seem him get 2-5 carries a game. Mostly just enough for the defense to have to account for him in the running game and to keep defenders uncertain when he drops back to pass.

[UteThunder]

I think he is more likely to get 5-10 carries per game.
