      Soapbox moment: Despite CR PTSD being widespread, I have nothing but admiration for the guy. Transfers in, sits an entire year in the booth, wins the starting job, injured and has to win the job again (after losing it), loses two friends in TY and AL, then back-to-back conference titles, Teddy Bridgewaters his knee and sits a year despite everyone but the surgeon saying he was good to go, has a setback with his hand, then finally has a chance to go against ASU and blows out his knee on the second pass of the game. Never b*tched or complained.

      Didn’t we end that game with three consecutive sacks as well?

      Does anyone know where you’d be able to find concrete data on NIL spending? There seems to be a distinct difference in payouts, with BYU opting to pay large sums for individual players, and Utah going for more of a moneyball approach. Ryan Smith rightfully gets sh*t for nosediving the Jazz until ~2035, but we may be singing a different tune on the NCAA side of things if our QB didn’t have knees and throwing hands made of yahoo security firewalls. Then we’re likely looking at a football win and a basketball win/loss; going 2 and 1 against the zoobs in widely watched sports.

      Stinks, but the flip side of the NIL coin is being able to reach out to other teams players. If we want him, donate and cross your fingers.

      Exact same archetype as Kuithe. I love it. Earning praise from Whitt as a freshman isn’t easily done.

      Agreed. It’s much more likely you find a nice TDS fan if you’re the one being nice first.

      Pure speculation, but I got the feeling that Jensen is being very deliberate about who he recruits. This might be slowing things down. Hopefully this means long term sustained rosters where we see the a lot of the same faces for three or four years.

      If I had to guess, it’s probably both. Whitt’s offense seems to play to the players strengths, but not at the cost of risking turnovers or negative plays. I remember going from almost never having a fullback in 2021 to Logan Kendall committing padded homicide in 2022. I’d be interested in seeing how the offense changed from just one year to the next where we went from Booker to Williams, Wilson to Williams, etc.
