Abu was a beast. I loved watching him run after he recovered from his knee injury. If Abu doesn't blow out his knee just before the '93 season, we would have won ten games that year - flipping last second losses into wins against Utah, Baylor and UNR because we could have controlled the ball; ended...

In the Bay Area, there was a consistent contingent of BYU fans. Stanford had fans, but the bandwagon effect was incredibly strong. When Stanford was winning (and I was there toward the end of the Mike Montgomery glory days in basketball), people would talk about Stanford nonstop, wear their Stanford...

And now there is an article in the Deseret News about Utah Valley and football. Smoke? Fire? Trying to save the WAC or make the school more appealing to the Big Sky or Summit? Who knows. https://www.deseret.com/sports/2024/05/14/is-football-still-in-uvus-future-local-visionary-believes-so/ Good gri...

I would like to see him play football too. And to be here for 4 years and tell the tampering cheats to pound sand. We know that coaches and ADs are basically unwilling to call out tampering. I would love to see some players who are wholly committed to a school start publicly calling it out on socia...

GCU just wants more bodies who can take out student loans to write them checks. Learning is completely irrelevant. So they invest massive amounts of money in athletics hoping to raise their school's visibility and cause more prospective students to take out loans and write checks. ... it is hard to...

Makes SUUs gambit to join the WAC continue to be a poor decision. Should have stayed in the Big Sky… What were they thinking? Like that's a career ending decision. I think they were thinking with their football head. WAC continues to expand into Texas with former FCS schools who have FBS ambitions,...

I'm shocked that the WCC took Grand Canyon. They are basically a diploma mill with a semi-professional athletics program attached. Back in the day, Denver left the WAC because they wanted nothing to do with Grand Canyon. I think this is a terrible move that could end up destroying the conference. M...

I'm not sure why I would give much credence to a writer who ranked USU as the seventh best team in the conference heading into the MW tournament last year. Maybe he foresaw the OT vs FSU and crapping the bed vs SDSU. Awesome year but the MWC tourney was a low point. Yeah, hate to say it, but we wer...

Obviously, the premise of the article is weird. It definitely looks like a college sports writer needed to produce content during a time when there isn't much going in with college sports. That said, given the weird premise, I basically agree with his take. The reality is that assuming that Osobor l...

A little concerning that his first choice was always byu… I’ve never been a fan of being somebody’s second choice… So…we only recruit kids that have USU as their first option? Hope you also like winning 9 games a year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Also, Tai Wesley says "hi." As I recall, his ...

This thread took a very interesting turn.

What I found fascinating about this entire discussion is that even though we are returning practically every key contributor from a top 25 team that won an NCAA tournament game despite losing our coach, everyone seems to assume that any player at USU who has a decent season is automatically going t...

Hell if they can build a bullet train from LA to Las Vegas, they can get Front Runner over Sardine Canyon. But yea, I too think it's cost prohibitive. Sure, if money were no object, you just build a tunnel under the mountains or something like that, which honestly would probably be easier and cheap...

StanfordAggie

No. My understanding is that the Front Runner will almost certainly never make it to Cache Valley because Sardine is too steep for rail lines. They would have to run it through Valley View, which, aside from being prohibitively expensive, would most likely mean no one would use it because it would b...

For what it's worth, everyone I know at WSU, which is objectively nobody that would really know(just professors in the Business school) all expect WSU to effectively be in the MW in the next few years. The PAC 2 had to split their sports between multiple conferences for legal reasons to keep the pa...

The problem I have with us playing Utah Tech is that the game is basically their NCAA first round, meaning they'll be extra motivated, and if we win, so what, it's expected, but if they win... yikes. Well, maybe they'll become the next UVU (still haven't beaten us since becoming D1). If we can't be...

I want to see long standing rivalries continue. We have a long history of playing against Weber State, Utah, and BYU. We don’t have a long history against UVU and Utah Tech… and I’m unsure we have much history against UVSC or Dixie State either. I think the Utah Tech game is a buy game because we n...

I would like to see home and homes against Weber and UVU I am 100% in favor of it when they are good. But if they are sub-150 in NET as they are currently, I'm significantly less enthusiastic. Playing Q3/Q4 games in OOC can basically only hurt you because a win counts for nothing and a loss is deva...

Ultimately the Aggies are not going to get very many high profile games in Logan. We will occasionally get some but a lot teams will not want to go to Logan. I don't want to see any NAIA or D2 schools scheduled unless just an exhibition. Agreed. The committee does not like to see non-D1 games on a ...

I remember Stew saying that he had some brief conversations with BYU after Steve Cleveland left for Fresno. They told him that he had to have a temple recommend to be hired by BYU. (Stew is/was LDS, although he didn't have a temple recommend and wasn't interested in obtaining one.) So I think the d...

Holy cow. The Kentucky fans thought that they were getting Dan Hurley, Jay Wright, or Billy Donovan... And they ended up with Mark Pope? What a world we live in... As an aside, wouldn't it be hilarious if BYU got a few LDS general authorities to give Chris Burgess a call and tell him that the Church...

UCONN can pay him more to be on their practice squad than we can for him to be Conference POY. If it is purely about the money, I dont think there is any chance he stays - and never was a chance. If wants a good payday and a known situation with a guarantee of minutes, we should have a shot. I don'...

Lame choice if he chooses Wazzu. He won't make the tournament, ever. Washington may make the tournament as a 10, 11 or 12 seed with an 17 or 18 win season. Utah State? Well we saw what a Utah State season looks like last year. Yah. I know other schools have more money, but winning matters. Can you ...

The thing I don't get about USC hiring Muss is that he hasn't been that great in the SEC. He has a losing conference record in 3 out of his 5 seasons there. USC has big money and is moving to the Big10. Muss seems like a pretty mediocre hire when you have that much hiring power. He also has a Sweet...

What on earth? He has five years left on his contract at Kentucky that pays him around $9 million per year. Plus he gets to be a lifetime "paid ambassador" for UK after he retires.

My question is, why is he just now becoming a HC? It sounds like he should've gotten a shot a lot earlier. I'll also note that unfortunately even in 2024, it can be difficult to find a head coaching job if you are black. Honestly, that is another reason I am thrilled about this hire. Opposing coach...
