SLC-UteFan

Wow! Amazing tool!

I’m looking at staying two nights in PC and then heading to Moab for two nights.

You probably already know this, but if you plan on visiting Arches Natl. Park, you will need a “timed entry reservation” in order to visit. Purchase online. Some people are not aware of that, so I bring it up here. Ignore if you already are aware.

Welcome. We hope your stay is SLC is great.

If you try golfing, just for kicks and giggles, go to the highest eleveated golf course that you can (Mountain Dell mentioned above is great), and have fun laughing silly as you watch your drives go 20 yards farther due to the thinner air because of the higher elevation! It’s quite the entertainment…[Read more]

No kidding. Tragedy for them and Oregon State.

Bartle reporting it is happening, and at full shares:

Have gotten this a lot, so just to clarify, Utah will be on the move to the Big 12 and will do so with a full share from the conference.

That was my understanding also. I remember reading somewhere (can’t find it now) that Fox might not pay full shares, or whatever. Info is sketchy.

But, I think it will be full shares.

Just found this: Sheer saying full shares.

Yes

Some are reporting on the possibility of having to accept lesser shares. Don’t know if there is real smoke to this, or if trolls are trolling again.

Some Ute fans mainly on Twitter trashing the Big-XII, their locations (referring to them as “truck stop” cities over and over). Combined with some “depression/anger” phases of a cycle we are in causing these Ute fans to magnify their frustrations and take it out on Big-XII fans (amplified by their dislike of BYU who is in the conference).

I agree with others that are concerned about this game for Utah. Will be tough. There are some Ute fans that are over confident for this game.

Other than that, I don’t have much analysis to add.

Do us a favor and crush BYU eventime they play Baylor. LOL.

My experience has been the same. I have BYU friends and acquaintances, and not one I don’t like. But Cougarboard? Holy moley, what a cesspool of frustration, hatred, and pure animosity towards Utah, the Pac-12, etc.

I get that they don’t like us from a rivalry point of view, but the hatred goes to another level. It is DEEPLY personal for them.…[Read more]

Since the photo is in Oregon’s stadium, that would be my guess.

Things I have read recently on CB, in no particular order:

1) Utah plays in the Pac-12 – a G6 league.

2) Kaelin Clay’s drop

3) You can get STD’s by attending a Rice-Eccles game with all the spit

4) Kaelin Clay’s drop

5) No one celebrates a loss like the Utes

6) BYU has a “chance to jump into a higher recruiting tier than Utah”

7) Kaelin…[Read more]

Mikey Matthews 2023. Composite 4-star.

247

LOVE this guy!

His commitment video just demonstrates several things: he’s intelligent and communicates well. He put a lot of thought into his recruitement. He’s grateful and gives thanks to his high school team and coaches and is grateful to be pushed to his limits. He pointed out the Utah culture and how it is everything to him.

He…[Read more]

This is great. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed it, and I’m happy for Clay. What a great asset to LAPD.

As a side note, when I saw the title to this thread, I thought “Kaelin Clay is probably in a post somewhere on CougarBoard”, given that they post his drop there all the time. So I wandered over to CB, and sure enough, there it is! A whole thread…[Read more]

Yea I agree. A borderline 3/4 star he is. Just for fun, here is a summary of his ratings on all four recruiting sites. He’s a 4-star (barely) on three of the four sites and a high 3-star on one.

Rankings

But you’re right on his offer list. Very impressive. Offers from LSU, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Texas A&M, Oregon, etc.

Update: all three crystal balls, including Steve Bartle, have him going to Illinois. Looks likely that Utah will miss out on this one. Bummer.

New CV in for him to Illinois.
