This is the 5th time total I have asked you…. you claim to not be a troll, please point to one positive post you have ever made about the football program.  If you’re a fan at all, there should at least be one.  

61 in P5 conferences (if I counted correctly).  Only 10 of those got to play in their conference championship.  Only 5 won.  
In other words, Utah finished in the top 16%.
We all know what could’ve been and IMHO what should’ve been.  But to sit here and endlessly complain about one aspect of what our coaching staff responsabilities is…[Read more]

We have a top 10 program that has yet to be tested
a top 10 coach that has great talent under him
a top 10 venue that is only going to get better
a very involved AD that is only trying to take what he’s hearing and improve upon it 
 
Yet all I see on SM is complaints.  The offense is boring, the drink lines too long, the sun too hot, the…[Read more]

I’ve obviously missed something, but what happened to Green?  Haven’t seen him on the depth charts and I thought he showed a lot of potential last year.  

I have to take my hat off to Bernard.  Not only is he playing well, but on that pick 6, I fully expected him to taunt or over celebrate or somehow earn a 15 yard unsportsmanlike mainly due to his history with the Y.  I know for me, in his shoes, I probably would have been overly tempted.  But he kept his composer and celebrated it with class and…[Read more]

I”m not sure why, but I think many of us are underestimating BYU.  I don’t think this team will though.
First, Ute fans, it’s ok to admit Wilson is a good qb.  It wasn’t just us he looked good against.  While I know he wasn’t playing a ton of power house d’s, it was still his freshman year against D1 talent.  I think he will get his shots against…[Read more]

We’ve seen rumblings about who Whit went after early on… and now we’re seeing rumblings of who he may be going after.   
The questions are these; what would you have done different than what Whit has done and what should he do now?
IMHO, he shot for the proverbial stars and struck out.  Now he’s trying to get the best of what’s left.  Just…[Read more]

This OC search and the difficulties of finding a flashy name should be telling us something.  Those that want to get rid  of Whit should take note.  Regardless of how you slice it or what we do on the field, Utah (the State) is a harder sell than most of us are willing to admit.  
We  know Whit went after Rich Rod, we know he’s talke to Sark. …[Read more]

Can we PLEASE stop bashing Whit for the percieved OC troubles.  For the past 14 years, everyone has bashed the offense and in the same breath bashed Whit for going through so many OCs.  Granted a few questionable decisions were made (Mainly BJ).  But for the most part, he has tried to get legitimate folks in places to succeed.  Bash him for one or…[Read more]

So I got a packet in the main from the CC today but the name it’s addressed to is unfamiliar but somewhat similar to mine.  I then recalled reading somewhere recently that they had an issue with their annual gift, but to be honest, I didn’t care and moved on.  Can anyone share what that error or issue was so I know whether this envelope was…[Read more]

This week we have seen first hand why we go into a slump every year….. injuries.  Say what you will, but we still don’t have the depth we need to play in the PAC week in and week out.  Every class we get better, but we’re not there yet.  

As I listen to Mitchell on the post game, can I just say….  
 
“At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul”
I hope all of you that wanted…[Read more]

Oh the irony……  Fans complain for years that Whit was too involved in the offense and that we needed to be throw oreiented first (numerous players have confirmed he wasn’t, but that’s another story).  Now we have an OC who has stated that Whit gives him free rein and many of those same fans are saying we should run more and it’s still Whit’s…[Read more]

Due to some family issues, I was unable to attend the game Saturday.  But two things stood out that absolutely drives me nuts.  We are not unique with this as I see this all the time.  In essence, it’s coaches out coaching themselves.  
Example one:  We were basically steam rolling Colorado in the ground game.  Practically everytime we ran, we…[Read more]

First off, replacing Scalley would be a very shortsighted solution.  When you look at last year’s numbers, he did well.  Not great, but well.  We are spoiled in that regard and we are used to great.  
This year, whether you want to or not, you have to look at injuries and the youth we have on the defensive side of the ball.  Losing Fitz and Anae…[Read more]
