I agree!

Yeah, I hadn’t read the comments. After reading your post – I decided to read them. So many Cougars are full of hate. Posting comments like these shows who they really are. The good Cougar fans typically do not post comments. I stopped reading comments when I read comments that a wife deserved to be shot and killed by her ex-husband in a…[Read more]

I did too, but I do not want to see that happen again.

You are always welcome here. I have always enjoyed your posts because they are honest and based on facts. Sometimes, this may make BYU look better than Utah, but that’s okay.

Previously, I would go to CB fairly often. Now, I do not go there. Some on that board are so full of hate that it just makes you feel dirty. I have said it before, and…[Read more]

Afernee, I agree with you on our 025 tight ends. Andrews could be a stud, and King is a solid player.

But, I have a question for you: What makes you optimistic about 2025? I want to be optimistic, but I am very concerned about our D with graduation and the portal. Our offense should be better, but we were terrible, so that isn’t saying a lot.…[Read more]

I don’t care if it is related to money or not. I think this is a direct result of how terrible our team looked last season (terrible may understating on offense). I hate it, but BYU played well last season. They looked like they were having fun. We stunk and we looked like we were miseraable.

I love Utah football and we better dig out of this…[Read more]

It looks like you became a fan in the late 70s / early 80s. Your list is comprehensive. Nothing to disagree with.

Here are a couple of players who I loved to watch who were before your time:

Mike Newlin – He was a stud who had a long NBA career. I think he led the nation in free throw shooting percentage.
Merv Jackson – He was a sophomore on…[Read more]

I was there at the NC game. We lost by 5. NC played four corners for the last 5 minutes of the game. There was no shot clock in those days. If I remember correctly, Chambers got in early foul trouble.

I enjoyed that team as well.

Doleac and Miller were not highly recruited out of high school. Drew Hansen was not really recruited at all. Jensen was a local hero but had little national attention. Jensen had recently returned from a mission in 1998. Mattola was from Finland.

Yes, Miller and Doleac had nice NBA careers. But, I believe it was because of how hard they…[Read more]

I remember the 1974 team well. It was a great team which improved throughout the season. Sojourner won the NIT MVp award even though we lost to Purdue. HAd Spojourenr stayed, the 1975 team would have been one of the top teams in the country.

I am sure that he is compensated nicely by Utah donors. He just didn’t go looking for a better offer after the 2024 season. I appreciate his loyalty.
