      You make a trade to help the Lakers it’s a rule.

      Pelicans traded AD got #1 Zion
      Mavs traded Luka get #1 Flagg

      Cane here to post this. I’ll add a source from Pete Thamel

      Pete Thamel
      Former Utah QB Cameron Rising announces he’s retiring from football. He said he’s been advised by doctors to not return to football. “I will unfortunately be forced to medically retire from the game I love.”

        Here’s another link about it.

        After reading it, my brain had an emotional 2 word response for Baylor that stats with F

        Again, just the initial emotional response from the sad way it all ended on that play, in what should have been a celebrated career at Utah.

      Everywhere I’ve read lists him at 6’1″

      Yes, he was on the Vegas practice squad.

      Phins could’ve used a blocking TE, but they signed one as UDFA, so I doubt they’re looking to add another

      TheNuschler, this was my new tin foil hat theory this morning.

      That AJ would be the “makeup” in next years draft. The dots connect that he’s played high school in Utah, went to TDS, by way of 7mil NIL, Jazz owner TDS alumni, and so is Ainge.

      If it does happen, I may stop with the NBA. A certain fanbase would be insufferable… or even more than they are already. Hell, just look at Jimmer.. in his 10 day contract with PHX years ago he got more cheering than the Jazz and more media attention than any Utah player who are still playing in the NBA.

      Rick, let me add some context.

      Boozer chose to leave to the Bulls and not re-sign with the Jazz. The Jazz tried to hang on by trading for Al Jefferson as a Boozer replacement. But things with DWill and Sloan blew up, and so Sloan retired mid-season, and rather than appear to give into player demands and who they weren’t sure would re-sign, they traded DWill.

      Hayward was tempered with, by Ainge, by the way of his college coach. And chose to leave to Boston

      This most recent sucks. I will disagree with you on Dennis Lindsey. He did good building the team but fell short on the finishing touches. Could be the new owner felt the team hit the ceiling, or could be he wanted to make it his own team.

      It is feeling a lot like a HOU roste, which I guess AJ did say the team as an example of a team he wanted to build.

      Yeah, every freshman needs to hit the weight room. He was listed at 6’3″ and just over 300 lbs. That’s a big boy, especially for a freshman.

      So that makes 3 freshman DTs as depth for the Utes that can hopefully all grow together, and judging by his body type, he’d be the run stopper of the group.

      I personally never had an issue with it. And while I understand people wanting to know and not liking not knowing, it surprised me how much it blew up and how big of a deal it became.

      Kinda theory vs. practice, in theory, there should’ve been no issues with Whitt’s decision, but then we all found out in practice that was not the case.
