You don’t shift deck chairs on the Titanic. Stay in our place, win and hope for a P2 window of opportunity opening up to us.

Statistically Cam wows no one, but he has more “It” factor than anyone.

His leadership on and off the field, his grit in the moment to make a play that in and of itself can win/change games and seems to raise team play around him. This stuff doesn’t show up in a box score or these analyses, but it’s there and it’s impactful.

When he plays, we…[Read more]

Didn’t on last play of game Troy Williams miss Carrington wide open in back of end zone to beat SC that year?

@Pedro, is there inside info or experience that is the reason for your lack of faith in U leadership?

From the outside looking in we know Randall acknowledged being associated with the $50m/team PAC12 ESPN ask and there were claims Harlan didn’t do great in selling USF to the Big 12. I’m curious what your reasons are.

Yeah, a few of our Twitterphiles haven’t done us any favors.

El Jefe was stoking the fire on CB over this. Guys like that need to do better. But every fanbase have good and bad fans, objective and blindly biased fans.

IMO you’re a good one Lasso. As far as I’m concerned you’re welcome around here.

We have to keep reaching across the aisle o…[Read more]

Ryan Smith sucks at branding a sports team, but hey it’s his money and his toys.

I’ll be fine if we run between the tackles on the first play of the season.

Just for the love of all that is holy, don’t run the Lud double reverse, don’t run that abomination ever again.

For real? Even football coaches out recruit Craig Smith for basketball players.

As always live your work. Allow me to quibble on a few points:

JJ is not just considered a top young corner, he’s considered a top corner period. PFF top rated NFL CB in 2023.

Dalton Kincaid is not only the top TE in Buffalo, he’s looking like Allen’s top weapon in 2024. He was second only to Diggs in 2023 targets. Diggs is gone. He’s a starter…[Read more]

Smith is dead man walking. He doesn’t have a way out of this spiral. His talent has left, is leaving. He hasn’t replaced it. It’s moot anyway, he doesn’t recruit well. Compounding this is two assistants have left him, which will defocus him a bit from recruiting. He hasn’t won the support of the fanbase. He’s heading into first year of play in a t…[Read more]

It’s interesting Miami, the devaluation has led to a RB shortage. Some supply and demand effects going on with the position right now.

Question will be whether this drives up RB salaries. Regardless of pay, RB will always have the shortest NFL career life.

Press conference post draft, Lions coordinator talks Vaki at RB. However, I think it’s also evident he’ll be used on special teams. Question is whether they’ll use him a safety as well.

Interesting reports on Vaki coming out of Detroit. They see him as a RB. He met with their offensive coaches prior to draft, big defensive coaches.

Craig Smith is out of his depth.

Yergensen’s 50+ yard FG in 1993 to beat BYU 34-31 in Provo. It turned the tide on the rivalry, which was one-sided for 20 years. It started Utah’s evolution into a football school and the program it is today.

SDS trajectory peaked in 1996 and has fallen over the same time as Utah’s rise. It’s foundational to be the alpha in your own state.

I would suggest Skinwalkers, but we don’t need any curses on top of our small market challenges. So, Soakers it is.

Seriously though, I like Utah Saints a tribute to 1990’s electronic music duo and you know…the Mormons. I also like Cutthroats or Yeti (not Yetis)

Whoa! Cormani McClain, that would be, as they say, a huge get.

@MDUte – do we have ties to the Miami RB that you posted is in the portal?

I think our RB problem statement is that is unclear whether we currently have a bona fide Utah RB1.

Job description of Utah RB1: workhorse, physical yet big play capable, 3-down back (run, block, catch).

They’re coming for Burgess. Will he let down millions of Mormons a second time?
