You’re right. That did sting a little. So did the basketball guy.

Have two daughters but also have a D1 athlete son so I too would like to relax, and wait and see what truths come out of this.

I don’t have any real proof, but, it kind of seems like the latest and greatest trend is to recruit tall safeties and convert them to fast linebackers, and recruit tall linebackers and convert them to defensive ends — so wouldn’t surprise me, although 6’4″ and 220-225 would make an ideal OLB as well.

Feels like BYU athletics program is on a roll, and it feels like ours is struggling. Part of the peaks and valleys of college athletics.

Do you feel like Utah tickets are unfairly priced with other comparable programs, and that Harlan has been unnecessarily increasing prices while other AD’s have held the line?

Awesome. He knows he’ll get his payday soon enough.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Houston wins the whole thing. I see a Duke/Houston final. My money is on Houston and its suffocating defense.

Richard Pitino would be a great hire

It’s funny. I have a gut feeling we’re gonna be a force this year. I just really like the offensive changes, with the most important that our new OC brought an experienced and incredibly dynamic QB with him. We also landed a gem at RB. I never really worry about the D with this group. Injuries will always have a big say in how the season goe…[Read more]

The World Baseball Championships has turned into a must-watch tournament. Ohtani vs Trout in the final at-bat was epic.

As an example I had 3 quotes on a 6 foot wood fence last year. 7 years ago the quote was $30 linear foot. Last year was $100, $60 and $53 a linear foot and the only guy that used 6×6 posts in his quote was the $53 guy.

Paid $16k in 2018. Removed 2 layers existing on 2500 sf home. No panels. Even with inflation it feels high. Get a couple of other quotes and you’ll know for sure

This would affect like 50 students. Student support is pathetic, and has nothing to do with convenience of the venue. The only decision that has been made is that the Huntsman Center will be razed. There’s a number of locations being studied, and it’s far from decided that it will be an arena off-campus.

He kept us in the game. Then he shot us out of the game missing like 6 straight down the stretch. 22 three-point attempts from one guy is wild.

In the womens game yesterday, UCF went like 11/12 and Utah went 15/18, but 2 of those 3 misses was by Nene Sow who played a total of maybe 3 or 4 minutes. Without her, they went 13/14. Now they get the advantage of a smaller ball but still — at one point during the mens Colorado game, Utah was 1/9. That’s 12.5 percent from the line. I know it…[Read more]

Someone mentioned the Outlaws would be perfect if it were for a 14u baseball team. My kid once played for the Bandits, and the older team were the Outlaws. Blech. No thanks. Huge fan of the colors for the UHC but please stay away from the cartoonish Yeti. The oval logo is fine. If we’re going with the Mammoth it would look much better in…[Read more]

Best game of the tournament after ASU/Texas. Very entertaining. One thing is certain, Whichever team makes it through this gauntlet, will have earned the right to be crowned national champs. Love the new format.

The HC can’t be saved. At some point it will be razed and replaced in a different location on campus. It will also be a smaller venue.

In terms of support, the student population at Utah is an embarrassment. We have 27,000 undergraduate students and about 30 show up for our first conference game against a pretty good opponent. Even t…[Read more]

I’m fortunate. My youngest, a boy, is a complete sports nut and a current D1 athlete himself. He didn’t choose Utah because it didn’t check enough boxes and he had a better relationship with other coaches, but he’s a Utah guy through and through and loves going to almost anything Utah related when he’s in town during breaks. My daughters are…[Read more]
