You forgot to mention the scenery around Buhl and Gooding. There is also a restaurant which serves sturgeon over towards Hagerman. It was closed when I last went through there.

Does Caleb Lohner still have basketball eligibility? He can come after the NFL season.

UTE98 replied to the topic Shedeur Sanders’ and Travis Hunter’s jersey retiring in the forum Football 1 month ago

Phillip Lindsay was on 104.3 The Fan here in Denver on Tuesday and he was pissed. Not for himself, but he said since Deion showed up prior legends don’t feel comfortable up at CU. Lindsay then went on to say he’d talked with numerous prior legends at CU who have not had their jerseys retired and they are not happy. He commented Rick George the…[Read more]

What’s up with Zach Keller? Quietly got 8 points, 3-3, and 2-2 from 3pt range. He’s a local kid and I think he has potential, was Smith just not the right coach for him? Or is he just getting lucky?

UTE98 started the topic I may be biased, however if we pull off the Jensen/Miller coup I'll be happy. in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 2 weeks ago

It’s not hard to know where my allegiances lie, my icon, my moniker, and I remember graduating with Andre Miller.

At the time I often spoke with a girl who worked in the athletic program and gave me insight into the basketball program.

While Andre Miller was a Prop 48 recruit, he absolutely nailed it at the U. Nobody outworked him on the floor…[Read more]

My two cents on politics.

If I had the same experiences as you, I’d probably think like you do. Maybe I do.

Does anyone really believe the vitriol of politics won’t spread to other topics on the board. If someone takes issue with your political views they may start a witch-hunt on all your posts. I think that happened on the other Ute board. I…[Read more]

UTE98 replied to the topic Press Conference today in the forum Football 4 months ago

If it’s the same Whitt from 2023 and 2024 I’m with you. Can he allow his OC to run the offense? I have my doubts, the image of him looking indignant at Urban Meyer’s/Mike Sanford’s play calling on offense a couple times during 2004 are burned in my mind.

Far too often a would be hall of fame coach hangs on too long and mires in mediocrity.

Both just saw what Utah’s team used to play like. I watched a bit of the Colorado game, rooting for Colorado. And I kept thinking, this defense doesn’t look right in blue. Reminded me of what Utah used to play like on defense and in bowl games.

Or the easy answer, Deion and Whitt, no longer in their prime.

UTE98 started the topic Riddle me this… Uteman! in the forum Football 5 months ago

I know it’s a dead horse, but I got to thinking yesterday. Since we often heard about how Ludwig’s offense was Pro-style, and took three years to learn… Why didn’t Utah have more NFL QBs? BJ, didn’t stick, Cam isn’t making it, Snoop progressed but wasn’t a sure thing in the NFL and went undrafted. What other QBs did Ludwig have which DID NOT…[Read more]

Ever wonder if you’re crazy? I did when I read about those wanting Wilson back and how he’d fit in Beck’s offense. Rose is a much bigger running threat than Wilson, I’d take Bottari running over Wilson. At this point I almost would take Cam over Wilson, and the door is slammed shut with Cam for me.

Cautiously optimistic Whitt will be more open to…[Read more]

“Where is the dedication? Maintain the same standards you expect from these athletes; your identity as a Ute was earned, not innate.”

This is similar to what happened for me with MLB.

In the early 90s as a Pirates fan it really turned me off when Bonds, Bonilla, Van slyke, Bell, Drabek, Belinda, Smiley, Carlos Garcia, Rafael Belliard, Jose Lind were broken up due to $$$$. That was the end of MLB for me. I attend maybe one or two Rockies games a year. And Sid Bream, you’re dead…[Read more]

One factor I think is being overlooked.

Academics! What do I mean? College football/P4 status means an incredible amount of money is poured into P4 universities.

The academics and research done at many universities, including the University of Utah, experiences an incredible increase in funding. An increased draw for better quality faculty, and…[Read more]
