Yergensen

His endorsement deals are with Nike and Red Bull with Nike deal close to $4m.

Proud, there’s some clarification on Dybantsa’s NIL from BYU.

BYU donors will not be paying $8m in NIL, they will be paying closer to $3m. Dybantsa will be making the $5m balance through endorsement deals.

Mason Madsen is the other beneficiary of the coaching change.

In the 2 games since the change KD has averaged 16.5 ppg and 10.5 rpg. MM has averaged 9.5 ppg.

You and I had called out Smith here for grossly underutilizing these 2, primarily because they led the team in BPM or productivity, yet were in bottom half of team minutes.

KD finally unleashed.

Ludwig should have adapted his scheme to the talent and weapons.

I’ll one up you, can you imagine NJ and JJ running option as a QB and RB duo with either of them interchangeable at either position? Lord help me.

Instead we got 13 games of Bryson Barnes, runs up the middle into full boxes and the occasional double reverse in the red zone. But h…[Read more]

We would have to go on a hot streak just to swirl and you can’t go on streaks when you can’t win road games.

Good stuff. What is Dawes’ deviation.

My assumption is he has the most whiplash of any Utah player, 20 minutes one night, 2 the next.

Thanks Miami.

247 composite, popular opinion’s best recruiting rating source, has us #44 in composite avg talent score per recruit.

By same source and metric:
We were #36 in 2024.
We were #24 in 2023.
We were #36 in 2022.

By the numbers Mason should be taking these minutes. But that would be awkward for Craig because you know, you’re messing with family.

There’s retribution coming for Harlan’s sh!t fit. I don’t think that ended with the fine. Though there is less predictability than ever, I expect the schedule to be slanted against us (road game travel, road game opponent, bye week timing, etc).

Mason also underutilized and I think his recent game minutes are below his season average, not trending the right way.

Player BPM MPG
Keanu: 8.2 15.3
Lawson: 7.8 23.2
Wahlin: 5.2 21.6
Mason: 5.2 18.7
Mongo: 5.3 21.9
Gabe: 3.3 28.6
Ezra: 2.2 19.9
Miro: 2.1 21.5
Hunter: 1.9 21.3
Keller: 0.7 10.4

Good stuff.

Would be interesting to see minutes per game added to the side of BPM in your list. This would highlight the underuse of certain high impact players and overuse of certain low impact players.

Majerus didn’t keep his best scorer (Van Horn) off the court because he didn’t play defense.

Majerus stressed defense, yet he saw the net gain with Van Horn on the court.

This team is ranked 132nd in scoring defense, so how well does anyone on this team play defense?

As was posted earlier, Dawes plus/minus is second best on the tea…[Read more]

This^^^ + any other talent that fits our needs.

FWIW – I don’t like Smith and I’m constantly shaking my head at his terrible recruiting, his personnel and rotation decisions, poor attention to defense, free throw shooting etc, and his nauseating Pollyanna BS.

I’m with Rick, Guillory is a talent we should all be excited about. Many blue blood offers. Tape is great, north south runner, burst, vision. Talent plays, don’t care about age.

Yep, we should be promoting Raycine Guillory. Have you seen his offer list?! Georgia, Ohio St, Michigan… He’s a talent.
