just saying it's not all bad look at BYU last year, 5 total wins :| Colorado cannot match utah's physicality they are a smoke and mirror team mostly. I don't think people realize, byu stumbles in these next two games and utah takes care of business against two bad teams, they go into the rivalry game with the same record.

Do you not have any hope that Morgan Scalley will continue to be successful?

Knight-who-says-ni

Oct 14, 2:06pm

I think Morgan is a good coach. Yet to be seen if he will be a good head coach.

Jdoc

Oct 14, 2:21pm

I worry that they take a hard run at Jay Hill if Scalley doesn't work out year 1

YankeeCoug

Oct 14, 2:33pm

I think Scalley will be given 3-4 years. That puts it 4-5 years out for us.

I really hope you are right...

Scalleywag has a minimum of 3yrs

I hope he (and every other yewt) goes to hel* and never posts on here again.

He and a number of other Utes are solid contributors and are more than welcome

If they hang on to Rising they’ll keep falling. Stick with Wilson.

Maybe, we'll see. I do think the whole Cam Rising thing has been handled

There will be a drop off when Kyle retires. I think that will happen at the end

Why do you think that?

Because replacing a legend without drop off is nearly impossible. See LaVell

should win the next 2 with or without a QB, 6-2?? could be a bit worse, like

Should win the next too. The last 4 will be pretty tough. 2-2 would be a good

franklyvulgar

Oct 14, 1:42pm

Four losses including the bowl loss is the gold standard for Utah football

Greg4BYU

Oct 14, 4:23pm

I think they need to turn the page for good on Rising. Wilson is very talented

Oct 14, 1:34pm

Wilson keep y’all relevant for awhile. He looks to be a pretty good college QB

Squirt

Unless he decides to jump off the sinking pirate ship and go elsewhere

WDaddy

Utah enjoyed 11 years of being in a power conference over us...

Coug

Oct 14, 1:42pm

everything goes in waves. Utah is ending the best football run in their history

Cougarclaw

Oct 14, 1:52pm

I appreciate a Ute with open-minded takes on his program. My thoughts ...

runnincoug

Oct 14, 1:55pm

I agree with all of your points.

Jdoc

Oct 14, 2:01pm

I'm not sure BYU will be a whole lot better TBH, so rivalry games will be epic.

Yes. Rivalry games should be fun, but I wouldn't be surprised if BYU starts to

Nah...BYU fans have been saying this since 2004. Utah will be fine.

TFL

Oct 14, 2:01pm

Utah had a clear financial and recruiting advantage for over a decade, and

ldssdl

Oct 14, 2:11pm

Like I said, every year for the past 20 years, including Utah's invite to the Pac-12, BYU fans

TFL

Oct 14, 2:18pm

I wasn't predicting a demise of the Utah program in any of those years.

ldssdl

Oct 14, 2:33pm

Yeah none of us really were but it's convenient for utes to misremember we were.

Brandoblueblood

Oct 14, 4:28pm

Because clearly BYU cannot or will not recruit non LDS athletes.

Oct 14, 3:36pm

Hasn't BYU done better now with the TP and the Big 12? It's more the naive assumption

TFL

Oct 14, 3:47pm

QB recruiting is considered a strength at Utah? I’ll give you TE, but given your

ldssdl

Oct 14, 4:34pm

Compare Utah recruiting at QB 10 years ago or 5 years ago, to the last 3-4

TFL

I guess if all you care about is recruiting stars, then sure.

Typical yewt fan, I literally didn’t say any of those things.

ldssdl

Oct 15, 12:35pm

To answer your question, BYU has a great thing going. Hopefully they continue to win and get to the CCG

TFL

Like our starting and backup QBs

Hahahahaha I love reading these messages from TFL... never give up TFL, don't be like the Utah basketball fans!

Atmospheric_Cougar

Oct 14, 4:40pm

I agree that they’ll be fine. But I don’t think they will differentiate themselves from any of the other Big 12 teams,

Oct 14, 7:51pm

Wow, I appreciate this honest opinion. Causes me to want to say: I hope things

Captain Barnacles

I think each team is better when the other is at least decent

YankeeCoug

Oct 14, 2:35pm

seriously... the biggest problem BYU fans have with Utah is the obnoxious fans.

runnincoug

Oct 14, 2:56pm

Wrong. Utah sucks and I want them to suck more. But Jdoc is one of the good guys

Big Daddy D

Don't worry Utah most teams have a hard time in 1st year of a power conference

They will still be a pretty good football team. I wouldn't count them out by any

Embrace the light, Jdoc. Convert to BYU fandom.

This really is the best solution

I think we might be writing off Utah a bit too soon.

Oct 14, 2:54pm

Agree ... too soon

ElmerAlbert

Oct 14, 4:05pm

Who is writing them off? But Ute fans saying Utah will never dip and go through tough years is the delusional viewpoint.

Nope. Dance on their grave.

seacougar

They are a QB away from being a good team

deljdc

Oct 14, 4:20pm

I think they will do fine. They will never be as big as their X.com fans say they will be, but will always compete.

AltTabbins

Admitting that about many in your fanbase earns a lot of good will.

good luck with that (on both sides)
