Mells hit the portal because of the seniority madness.
Last season, Mells was our best DT but had limited snaps.

And one of only a few who wouldn't get their asses pushed around like empty trash cans against every O-Line we faced...

Just to sum things up. WSU/OSU now want to do a FB Scheduling agreement with the MWC. While parking the majority (10 sports) including BB and WBB in the WCC. But they will beg to stick the other sorts that can't find any home in the MWC. I would just tell them no. At first, the idea of WSU/OSU comi...

That's cool. I don't remember seeing this last year. Looks like a nice community event. Fun to see our athletes.

How does that compare to Kayla's? Did we find more money?

Sam's going to the playoffs!

I really appreciated watching Josh last year and hearing from him when he was given the opportunity to participate in interviews. Great news.

travelingagg

I would rather have Great, I don't know much about the guy from Stetson. I just think it's weird that he isn't bringing anyone with him. Maybe it's because all of his best players were seniors? Perhaps the jump from Youngstown State and the Atlantic Sun Conference is too big going to Utah State and...

I don't have any projections. I honestly haven't really monitored the total number of posts. I think we should honor the 1,000,000 post with a $1,000,000 donation to USU from whomever makes that post. $2,000,000 if it happens in the Sandbox.

lol! I'll be sure not to post until after that mark!

Looks like we're on track to hit our 1,000,000 posts on USUFans sometime this year. ProvoAggie , do you have any projections on when that might occur? Should we do something to celebrate? Make a donation to USU Athletics? Hold a 50/50 opportunity drawing? Ask one of our coaches to drop by and do an ...

Yesterday, the majority of their show was dedicated to highlighting USU athletics. All three hours had an interview with one of our coaches. It's been a long time since I've ever seen the SLC media give USU that type of airtime. I've complained about this for years, so I'm going to make sure I give...

Last time I checked, a coach's longevity isn't a metric most people care about. Take ESPN, for example. The first column includes each team's win/loss record. Other measures the public seems to care about include tournament performance and national rankings. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketb...

That's crazy. I know we're thinking about NIL as a form of compensation on top of the full-ride scholarships these athletes get. However, I'm close to the professional space where sports personalities are paid for media appearances and product endorsements, and an NFL rookie in a metro area might ch...

If a coach leaves because they are successful then that means USU is also successful. I can live with that exchange.

+1. I feel fine with Sprinkle leaving. We finally won in the NCAA tournament, and we ended up net positive on salary expenditures.

"My girls are at an age that we don't want to move" Let's not get too excited. Cache Valley is a very polarizing place, and his girls could also say they aren't happy if they struggle to feel included in the community. Plus, he literally is moving them right now, saying, "My girls are at an age tha...

I trust you, @aggies22 , more than anyone. Keep it up.

Can't hear anything now with the actual questions. Or the actual answers from the coaches! What a logistical fail. I swear this same sh*t happened for Sprinkle or Odom or Smith's press conference. At this point, we should have this (I can't express myself without swearing) polished up with our prac...

He sure praised Diana.

As he should. We're fortunate to have her leading our department.

"I want to thank our players." I love it with new coaches immediately take on the "we" and "our" terms.

I also like how both coaches acknowledged where they came from. That's classy and something we didn't see from Odom.

Not that it needed confirming, but looks like it's been confirmed. Tomorrow at 11 am. Both head coaches will be there.

Whoa! I missed the news on the women's basketball hire. Exciting!

Mason is getting interest from BYU with some nice NIL money involved. It doesn't mean he is going, but there is an offer. I believe the 24/7 portal tracker is garbage. I think @aggies22 mentioned that previously...something he was right about. And it’s not the only one. My man has options. Sent fro...

Yep. That was so odd when they had no questions for our last coach. This is a chance for them to set a first impression with a coach they could be covering for the next 11 months (let's be honest) to 3 years (at most). A simple Chat GPT query turned up the following questions: Questions for Coach Je...

It’s not just the Utah ties it’s the west coast ties that I liked about Simon. Plus he lived in Utah for 7 years and probably wouldn’t want to bounce after 1-2 years . But hey go Aggies right I will support no matter what. Salary > location. There are very few individuals who, given the opportunity...

Seems like Toledo fans are marginally sad about his departure. https://csnbbs.com/thread-988866.html Fun to see them share a photo of Utah State campus; also, three Toledo athletes hit the portal this week, and one poster thinks he'll bring someone named Ben Wight with him. https://csnbbs.com/thread...

Tod is a great coach in the regular season as shown from his regular season titles but not fared well in conference tournaments or NIT. Hopefully at USU he can get over that hump. For sure a different hire than our last 3 as he is on the downward side in terms of how many years he probably has left...

Great was really fun to watch and pretty hard for other teams to gameplan for. Even if they double-teamed him, he'd still find a way to score or find the open guy. Plus, we've historically either had some slower bigs or undersized bigs who get pushed around. Great stands out as someone who is decept...

Very ugly game. My goodness.
VCU has played in Philly, Tampa and now somewhere(?) in Utah within a week. NIT really did them no favors.

But were the restaurants good?!
