We don’t leave the state of Utah in October. What are we? SEC lol

Wyoming is just 2 hours up the road from me, so thinking about it, but already have a conflict that I have to consider.

Might go to Baylor as my Senior is planning on moving to San Antonio to work and live with bio-family for a little bit and could be a good time to visit and see how things are going/move her back home lol.

Might drive to…[Read more]

There are only a few protected rivalries and Big 12 has always spread them out rather than put them all on rivalry weekend to try to get more viewership.

Utah White Outs (since Blizzard didn’t work to kind of match mountain hockey teams – Avalanche). Utah Squals. Utah Polar Vortex (or Vortices for plural). Utah Inversion Layer. Utah Raspberry Milkshakes. Utah Swag brought to you by Swig.

I’m guessing Mammoth wins out. Hopefully they have a secondary mascot Sid, chasing a nut.

I think the OT from USC, CB from TAMU, DEs from Oregon and Washington, Punter from Mizzou, and WR from Miss St. + Nate Johnson returning fill out the roster decently enough with Dampier/Rodgers from UNM, RB from UNLV, and WR from Wyoming & Utah St. Still probably need a little more line and RB depth.

We had a few losses that hurt (Calhoun,…[Read more]

It’s like the useless stats of all-time records or ‘last time they met, they beat them by 40 … 12 years ago’. Now, the team is different every year. Sure, there are programs and systems and continuity of some players at some schools, but not much anymore. Most teams (even elite) have a different qb every year now, transferred from somewhere else.

After BYU: Hey, we are ok (except for FT)! Smith is getting it together and better than KY Jelly
After Houston: We suck again! Fire Smith!

Off campus venues are stupid.

Any venue should be able to expand/contract better while keeping noise levels up. A great 9k field house for bball is what is fitting in today’s market, but 15k for gymnastics is still viable. Not to mention other uses like concerts, graduations, etc.

Yeah, curious. He needs playing time and running out of years to do it. Unless he has realized he likely won’t make the NFL like others in his family and is just happy to keep playing some and hoping to coach in the future. So, could be good from a networking perspective ;).

Not half-brothers or step-brothers (as some have heard), but their parents are close friends and they met in HS and are really close, such as brothers are.

Appears that he is FR transfer from WY. 3-star (85) out of Paetow HW in Katy, TX. 6-1, 192 was also a triple jumper in track and field (11.93 100 is not very fast). Was used sparingly at WY (17 receptions, 204 yards, 3 TD) with best game vs Boise St. (4/82/1 with a 63 yard reception). So, appears he’s a depth play but maybe an athlete or could be…[Read more]

So, best case 10th, worst case 15th? At least not last as we were picked preseason 😉

Cue the boobirds of a G5 transfer.

This. I love these coaches speaking out. Sometimes it’s the Kiffin types that lead to attention and hopefully some change, but really, the NCAA enforcement is dead. FB needs a new oversight group that sets up collective NIL caps (can’t cap the actual endorsements, which is totally fine), portal timing/rules (only in April, no spring practice, only…[Read more]

As much as I don’t like it, I don’t think contacting missionaries is technically tampering. Ethically, probably, but poaching kids that are sign and send is a little easier with the influence of friends, mission presidents, etc. connecting with the kid coming off an experience they claim can be continued in the TDS environment, which appeals to…[Read more]

Is the basis that in 2021 at UA he only played 5 games? That you could redshirt if only 4 were played (yet a bowl game doesn’t count against that, so you could have 5 – in his case, he played 5 regular season games)? He played 4 seasons in 4 years, no JUCO, no covid year (1 year too late). Any other arguments?

Just sue and make it that you can…[Read more]

Meh, I have cousins that call close family friends aunt/uncle and their cousins, moreso than me and my siblings, cousins by blood. Whether bio (not), step (not), or just close, family is broader than blood. But maybe better to just say playing with a close friend, like some others that were here (Huntley, Simpkins from same HS)

Lies and speculation going on amongst the infamous kittyboard. They are just hoping for a Christmas miracle – which involves news from the Hill vs news about Jay Hill (or their own team).

There are rumors that are trying to create rumors to try to get him in the portal and transfer to TDS. And anyway, someone posting loyalty is now dumb until the portal closes on the 28th.

There needs to be rules on poaching that are enforceable, but the NCAA is dead in the water. They have no ability to do anything and lose court cases left and…[Read more]
