Well Whitt got that pig farmer shirt though. So yeah that’s the guy man.
Johnson never got real practice reps all season either. Rising and Barnes were always sucking them up.
EagleMountainUte replied to the topic I just listened to Spence Checketts for the first time in a long time. in the forum Football 7 months ago
I can’t stomach him at all. Always disappointing.
Content that speaks to a very minor segment of a fan base then generalizing it to everyone is so annoying.
EagleMountainUte replied to the topic I don't the substitution rule, but I like the way Whitt uses it in the forum Football 7 months ago
Why don’t you like the rule? Seems like allowing subs makes it fair for everyone. It was always a clear advantage if the Offense can only be starting ahead.

Sure, Utah can win at home. The Utah homefield advantage is real and means we have a legit shot against any team.
Losing Barton is absolutely brutal for the defense, though. Stopping their run is going to be tough without him.

A lot of people think Utah let him score. Makes perfect sense.

I think I figured it out. For some random reason the Bartle URL has the F DASH DASH DASH in it. I think your naughty filter is blocking it.

I actually found a YouTube video.

@Tony I can’t figure out why the second YT link won’t load. First one was correct.
EagleMountainUte replied to the topic 🤯😵💫🤬 in the forum Football 7 months, 2 weeks ago
I don’t think so that first year in the PAC12 was really weird. Essentially you had no USC for the new conference. That is one of those things that doomed the conference IMO. Looking back now after seeing how it all played out.
Utah just had to beat a crappy Colorado team at home to play for a P12 title year one. Yeah Utah was in a better s…[Read more]
EagleMountainUte replied to the topic Struggles in the forum Football 7 months, 2 weeks ago
I don’t think it is coach speak.
It is decisions made with incorrect or mistaken information.
Whitt would be the first to tell you injuries are no excuse. You have to find a way to manage it. He has said this many many times.
I am questioning his managing of the situation. I think disclosing injuries is good for transparency. But it is l…[Read more]
EagleMountainUte replied to the topic Furlong speaking truth in the forum Football 7 months, 2 weeks ago
I really hope he doesn’t make any more comments on it. Focus on the season. Cam Risings delayed response can just end it as far as I am concerned. Seems like he is taking the season serious with the players he has.
I don’t understand how Rose is so far behind. Is it because of the current rep count being favorable for a starter now? I guess tha…[Read more]
UteFanatic replied to the topic Another hit to our fanbase’s reputation in the forum Football 8 months, 2 weeks ago
Stupid and insensitive post by Jazzy, but who cares about Twitter? People spend so much time on there they begin to believe that’s the entirety of the sports world. Nothing on that site matters one iota in the real world. Remember when BYU fans thought that we wouldn’t be invited to the Big12 because of our Twitter fans? Boom! Invited! Lol.

This is what happens when you invite BYU to a conference. It immediately goes down in quality.

I’m hoping he sees a lot of playing time vs Weber State.

As others have said, Florida remained committed to stacking the box. They never deviated from that game plan.
Also, Florida’s defense is pretty good. They have some seriously talented dudes on that side of the ball. Utah did well, all in all.
UteFanatic replied to the topic Spencer Fano Not Ready in the forum Football 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Completely expected for a true freshman o-lineman in his first game. The fact that he was able to compete his way into a starting spot at all speaks to his talent.
UteFanatic replied to the topic Thoughts on the game in the forum Football 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Regarding #3, if Nate could just develop into an average passer he would be absolutely deadly as a QB. His speed and athleticism is elite. I’m really hoping that comes to fruition, but the lack of passing attempts does seem to indicate that he can’t do it.
UteFanatic replied to the topic Poor OS and WSU in the forum Pac-12 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Yeah, I feel bad for their fans. All those programs have done for years is punch above their weight. They have very loyal and engaged fanbases. And they’re being relegated simply because of geography and market size. Conference realignment sucks.
I wish there was a way for the Big12 to bring them on, but I doubt the finances make sense. Best they…[Read more]
UteFanatic replied to the topic Kyle Whittingham in the forum Football 8 months, 4 weeks ago
Here’s the thing. Whitt is extremely competitive and with that comes a bit of pettiness. It’s what makes him a great coach. All the great coaches have that kind of “edge” to them (Urban, Saban, Dabo, Gundy, Harbaugh, etc.). The best coaches aren’t “nice” in the traditional sense.
In my opinion, he treats a rivalry exactly like it should be…[Read more]
