Is it just me or is Jacob Patrick a Shaun Green doppelganger? I hope he can shoot like Shaun!

Interesting
In announcing Utah’s basketball roster, it’s also noted that Dawes became the first University of Utah student-athlete to sign a revenue share agreement.
Last Friday’s watershed House vs. NCAA settlement paved the way for schools to directly pay athletes. The settlement goes into effect July 1.

With that kind of shooting percentage, he might be that spot up knock down shooter we need. It seems like many great teams have the guy that comes off the bench that throws the D for a loop because everyone is in help mode, then all of a sudden you hang 6 or 9 points on them in a handful of possessions. Not sure if that’s the plan but it sounds good.

To be fair, they are/were both Finnish products (see what I did there :P)
Seriously though, I’m disappointed that neither Mike nor Miro ever really got a solid shot. Like everything else with Craig, it just seemed like another revolving door. So I don’t know that we really know how Miro would have finished up the season if he had been getting…[Read more]

Very exciting! Kid knows how to get to the rim and seems to have a high motor to go with some nice skills.

It’s interesting to me how some pine for the P12. I had my fill of that nonsense conference. Poorly managed, shit start times, horrible officiating, zero reputational bump, terrible money, and a sad mix of haves and have nots. If your name wasn’t USC, UCLA, Oregon, Washington, or Arizona the P12 didn’t give a shit about you. It’s no wonder it…[Read more]

I think we can all agree that once you clear 6’8, you can be a rim protector but
it doesn’t mean you are, and you can be 7′ and suck.Last year, if I’m remembering correctly, we were one of the biggest teams in the NCAA. But we just weren’t that good, on offense or defense, or at least not good enough to get to the dance.
While it looks…[Read more]

Minnesota Ute replied to the topic New 4* Guard Basketball Transfer in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months ago
I don’t have any inside information, but from the outside looking in, a coaches salary comes with the understanding that you can be fired at any time if the organization loses confidence and doesn’t like the results. A staff member on the other hand doesn’t have that fat salary but still has bills to pay and mouths to feed. So honestly, it was…[Read more]

Minnesota Ute replied to the topic Watched:One-Shot-Overtime-Elite on Prime. I am no longer high on Jahki Howard. in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 1 week ago
Nobody is attacking anyone. These players get paid, which makes them professionals, and in my book, open to scrutiny. This young man in particular has baggage that he himself created and for right or wrong, is on display for the world to see. We, as a fan base, are certainly within bounds to discuss those issues, just as the producers of the…[Read more]

Minnesota Ute replied to the topic Bartle article on new Men’s BB commitment in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 2 weeks ago
One side note to the point about it being a job. I am very conflicted on this point. I have been one that has wanted to see players get paid. Not because it wouldn’t be good for the game, although I am trying to reserve judgement on whether its bad for the game. But more because it IS a job that these guys work DAMN hard at. My son tried one…[Read more]

touche’ However it may or may not sting for Syracuse in the near term, I guess it depends on their depth at the guard spot. And ultimately that is my point. I’m not saying we shouldn’t have several roster spots to develop players in hopes they will stick around if they get better, but I don’t think you can count on basing a program around that…[Read more]

Minnesota Ute replied to the topic Bartle article on new Men’s BB commitment in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 2 weeks ago
My worry is whether ‘developmental approach’ is even possible anymore. You bring in a player like Kyndal, and develop him for a year or two, and he is coming along. Then some other program just throws a bunch of NIL money at him, and just like that you are starting all over.
That’s kind of what it felt like with Larry, granted it was pre-NIL…[Read more]

Minnesota Ute replied to the topic Favorite Utah basketball teams in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 3 weeks ago
That was the team that got me hooked. The 1989-90 school year I was in Austin Hall on the same dorm floor around the corner from Bryon and Tyrone so Phil and Barry (Ute Dub below forgot Barry Howard who was a defensive stopper on that team) were always around too. Other plyers would come around time to time too, Walter threw a fastball to me out…[Read more]

That is one of my biggest hopes for Utah basketball is to be seen once again as legit. I feel like we went too long not being in the mix in March, and with a coach whose name just wasn’t known by anyone outside of the local fan base. A staff that just didn’t have NBA credibility and players leaving every year for other college programs rather…[Read more]

Minnesota Ute replied to the topic Dawes Withdraws from Portal in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 4 weeks ago
Agreed, it was great to see him fix that aspect of his game. It was obviously such a glaring hole, that had he not fixed it, I would have had to question his seriousness. Ezra not making free throws was worse than Gabe not making 3s. His whole game is getting to the basket and getting fouled, so to leave points on the floor because he couldn’t…[Read more]

I don’t know much about Traore, but I will be happy if Ezra and Mike stay, and hopeful for Keller if he decides to stay. Keller is a good shooting big, but he needs some significant improvement before I see him playing a lot of minutes on what I hope is a much better team, but I think he has all the tools.
