I'm not convinced "rivalry" can be measured - feelings are personal. I think using attendance for the case of Wyoming and CSU as our rival is flawed. First, it's a very small sample size. Second, a lot more goes into attendance than the opponent. I think the most influential is how good USU is and ...

Where did you get that average attendance number for Weber State ? Weber is not on the list for top attendance games at USU which lists all the way down to 25, 500. I remember many of those games with a stadium that was at best half full. Those are the attendance numbers from ESPN for the two Weber...

Has the construction of the Estes Center changed Rat Ball spectating? Are the guys now playing in their private building and it's just not as accessible as it used to be?

brownjeans

Do we FEEL it? I don't know that proximity, number of games, recent W/L records, and trophies matter as much as the way fans feel about it. I bet if you poll USU fans most don't feel rivalry feelings for Wyoming - and they won't until WYO and USU are taking things from each other. I would say that ...

brownjeans

Wyoming is a rival. No doubt about it. While the games haven't been meaningful, there is a major overlap of fans. Most of the biggest rivalries come from two teams playing at the same level, swapping wins, with fan bases that interact with each other consistently. While there are exceptions, this i...

USU and WYO have both stated that they are a rivalry and play for a traveling trophy.

USU and WYO don't state things, people state things. Who is stating that we are a rivalry?

brownjeans

But why does USU list Wyo as a rivalry? If two teams haven't played a meaningful game in 50 years - what kind of rivalry is it?

brownjeans

What makes that list a list of ACTUAL rivalries? Upon what foundation is that list created? Rivalries are emotional things, not things structured by number of games played or trophies attached. If no one feels anything - it's not a rivalry. I think you have to be older than 50 to think of Wyoming as...

Most those who predict our team to take a step back do so because of the loss of so many offensive starters. But many of next year's starters saw a lot of playing time last year. Between the new rule allowing four games to RS players and the high number of blow-outs, I dare say our returning players...

The picks in 2021 to 2023 aren't likely to be in the lottery. The ones in 2024 to 2026 could be. The Clippers could look totally different by that time. That seems like a long time from now.

If he can manage to dump Westbrook, he should dance.

Sounds like Kahwi is going to the Clippers and he's taking George with him. This is hilarious. When George re-signed with OKC he gave people hope that you can trade for a super star for one year and they'll buy in and stay. Then Toronto does it with Kahwi and not only is he not staying, he's going ...

I've watched enough Jeff Green and Emmanuel Mudiay to not really be all that excited about those two signings. Yeah. The Jazz are over the cap and have used their exception. They have to fill out the roster with rookies, and veterans willing to take the veteran minimum. Basically fringe-NBA players...

Crazy thing about it is I don't think Alphonso will be the best newcomer on our team... there's a chance he'll be the third or fourth best. I don't say that to knock Alphonso - he is very good and may very well work his tail off and be our best newcomer. It's just a statement of how good I think our...

I don't know if Favero is looking to transition to college coaching, but this seems like a good step.

Competition refines capability. With as many scholarships as D1 football is given, there's no reason to not stack teams with competition (especially at the most important position). Having more quality QBs will benefit the team much more than not having enough.

When our PA announcer says "McChesney for 3!" could the students reply with "Gesundheit!"

Just a thought.

My recommendation is to not play baseball. Seriously though, coaches have to manage the parents - almost like children. Set rules, clear expectations for behavior, and consequences at the beginning of the year; then follow through. If the parents can't follow the rules, they need to find another tea...

Had the BYU community been taking their mind-everyone-else's-business responsibility seriously, and reported this kid to the honor-code office at the first appearance of trouble (skipped a day shaving, said "fetch" too much, slowed down when walking past the caffeinated drinks), he'd not be in this ...

I hope he turns into something decent, but that video didn't inspire much confidence. He is a 7 footer and is struggling a bit to get the ball over the rim. Of course that is all I have ever seen, but my first impression is one of very limited athletic ability, that this far has gotten by entirely ...

Living in Logan is like this.. or maybe reading this board. Everything here gets over complicated.

78 I think you're drilling a dry well.

What value can come from it?

At the risk of sounding obtuse or racially insensitive, I feel the need to defend the people of Cache Valley. First, having spent most my formative years in Cache Valley, people who are racist are the exception. However, because there are so few of other races, people have little face-to-face experi...

Seems like a good vert for a seven footer

Does it matter? Either way Collette and Utah broke the rules and when crap like this happens NO ONE wins. Utah State, Duryea, Collette, Utah and Crisco all ended up in a worse position because of his complete lack of integrity. I don't know. I feel like I won. I get to watch Smith coach what might ...

The idea of a billboard is fun, but I'd much rather we pool the money for a donation directly to one of our program's funds (Big Blue or Merlin Olsen).

I couldn't care less if we play UofU. And UofU will continue their two-step around us.

Go figure, another DB.

Throw a rock at BYU and you're bound to hit a DB.

I was on the executive board of the Ole big blue club and pushed to play games in SLC so aggie alums could go and enjoy, we never got as much support as I had hoped for, and it pissed off a lot of cache valley season ticket holders. As an alum who lives about 15 minutes from the Jazz arena, I never...

1. Because it gives us as good of a chance as game any game would with for a potential Tier 1 win in the NCAA Net ranking. There's a decent shot Utah is top 75 next season. Key word "potential" tier 1 win. I'm not convinced they'll be very good. I can think of a lot of other teams where a one and d...

If we wanted to get into the world of counterfactuals, had Collette stuck around we could have had a much better team and our current view of Duryea could be very different. Though eventually Duyrea would likely have been exposed for the mediocre coach that he is sooner or later. Likely later. Coll...

Anyone want to give a synopsis? Is it worth listening to if I have little to no interest in Collette and would only want to hear about how/why he left? Thanks in advance for the heads up. Collette loved the Spectrum, the Aggies, and playing for Stew Collette said there's no comparison between the S...

brownjeans

I love the idea of this team doing a one and done road game, but instead on Utah, let's pick an eastern team in the top 25 and get more experience for what we'll face in the post season.

brownjeans

Why would we go for it? I'd rather we played pretty much any other PAC12 or BIG12 school in an away one and done than Utah.
