Assuming no bridges were burnt, IMO one of the first calls Bumphis makes should be to Samson. They were both here at the same time, so they should have a connection already.

I wouldn’t assume that we are scheming 2 LB’s exclusively. We played 3 LB sets with Fotu quite a bit in 2020. Also, have we ever started a LB as a freshman? I don’t know that Calvert and Tufaga play ahead of Kaho at LB if we keep Kaho at LB.

I wouldn’t worry about this. Often we not only find a fit for an athlete like Kaho, but often times…[Read more]

JQJ is on campus now. Spring reps help Brewer, but Rising still has 2 years in the program and won the job last year. If Rising isn’t fully healed, then I think Brewer’s the guy too, but if both are healthy I’m taking Rising.

Rick was indeed a genius. Whether you liked or disliked him, I think everyone would agree on that point.

People skills might be putting it lightly. Some of the stories are bizarre, but I loved those teams. Truly the golden years of Utah basketball.

I’ll have to check out that interview. My fanboy read on the situation is Brewer is insurance in case Rising doesn’t fully recover in time. I’m hyped for JQJ as well. Vince Young type QB and playmaker…yes, please.

Sorry for double post

Brewer’s stats aren’t great. Low 60’s in completion rate and TD to int ratio is between 2/3 to 1. His stats look alot like Bentley’s did at SC and against worse competition, not compelling at all. I would hope Rising could at least produce on this level and would offer a higher ceiling.

Have you looked at Brewer’s stats? Low 60’s in completion rate and TD to int ratio is between 2/3 to 1. His stats look alot like Bentley’s did at SC and against worse competition, not compelling at all. I would hope Rising could at least produce on this level and would offer a higher ceiling.

The only WR I have seen have trouble getting separation is Enis. The WR were solid to good against even top P12 competition with Huntley at QB. Quarterbacking and OL were the issue in 2020, not WR.

Room is more full than mentioned. Money Parks and Makai Cope will be really good. Question is how soon will they break in. I think we need a vertical threat, but beyond that I think we’re in good hands.

John White and Devontae Booker shouldered that load, but Bernard can’t? Okay.

We see it the same way. Hard to wait for a BYU receiver to come open though and Zach has thrown to alot of tight windows sometimes resulting in picks. They had all day to get open this year given BYU oline superiority over poor competition. They played alot of backyard football and Zach was the beneficiary. I’m not even sure he was on NFL…[Read more]

Indeed, need to replace Jaylen Dixon. Would like him to come back, but need deep threat receiver.

Moot point with Dart yes, however it’s the approach taken with Tuttle and Costelli (1 qb per class) that I’m interested in. It may be indicative of a strategy that we’re taking. Pure speculation and would be interesting to know how our recruiters assessed Zach Wilson and Dart, but happy that we’re getting the QB talent that we are…big step up…[Read more]

Tafua is not a good pass rusher. Don’t take my word for it, look at his stats and player ratings.
