Diamonds in the rough is still how we should be buttering our bread.

Uhhhh…no. You don’t build a strategy on outliers.

Look, everyone is upset. I get it. I don’t blame you. But that’s not a reason to launch the entire system into the sun.

Recruiting rankings still work. In general, the star system still gets it right. You may catch lightning…[Read more]

Poo Poo and that MWC team are way better than you’re giving them credit for.

I haven’t weighed in on football since before the SDSU game, so here’s my hot take:

Utah is not nearly as bad as most of you think.

Now I’m not saying we’re great. I’m just saying we’re not terrible. We beat Weber handily. They gave James Madison (#3 in FCS) all they could handle yesterday. Weber is a top-10 FCS team. We lost to BYU-Provo…[Read more]

Thomas is too good to switch positions or not play. Until he gets the ball security issue fixed in practice, he’ll play in situations where a turnover isn’t totally devastating.

They’re a run-first team anyway. QB out isn’t that big of a deal for SDSU.

If you’re sitting in Utah County, you’re sitting in the wrong spot.

Pissed and embarrassed that they didn’t do it in the offseason. Disappointed in the fact that a midseason firing means they will get the caliber of coach who is available midseason.

Yep

One of my employees – SC grad, big time SC football fan – is in my office at this very moment, literally pounding his head and fists on my desk.

People are overthinking this. BYU-P won because they wanted it more. After all the coaching, video analysis, nutrition, strength training, etc…desire and heart will still make the difference.

Quick reminder that, for whatever reason, lately Utah has started its seasons poorly and picked it up later. By the time Oregon rolls around, this will be a much different (probably better) team. And who knows what trajectory Oregon will take?

At this point, no outcomes for the rest of the season would surprise me.

So what do you propose we do? Not replace the players who leave?

I’m having trouble understanding what you’re advocating for here.

Me checking to see if we’re overreacting on the board this morning.

I just want our boys to stay healthy. I’m not sure if BYU-Provo Campus is still Cheap Shot U, but I still don’t trust those guys. If we win the game by 50 and lose a key contributor, it’s going to feel like a loss to me.

I swear…I hate this game. It’s all so pointless.

Nowhere. Never park in Utah County. Just keep driving until you reach a different county and park there.

That’s because Gameday doesn’t care about G6 conferences.

You’re right – it’s the old “low probability of a high risk outcome vs. high probability of a low risk outcome” debate.

Also, optics come in to play. If a person gets COVID at a football game and dies, they won’t die for at least a week, and you can’t be totally certain they caught it at the game. But if a person gets hit by lightning at a…[Read more]

He got arrested for jacking stuff at a Best Buy.

Agreed. Every fanbase has its pricks. Sadly I’ve met several Utah fans who are pricks too. But I still maintain that the BYU-Provo Campus has more than average. I blame it on a couple of things:

1. Too many BYU-Provo Campus fans have their testimonies linked to the performance of BYU-PC sports. That makes their personal investment in sports very…[Read more]
