Coach Smith, looked MISERABLE on the sidelines. Grass isn't always greener.

Yep. Really ever since they lost to ASU at home. They would have had to win the PAC 12 tournament

Utah doesn't have a good fanbase, but smith hasn't given them much to cheer for. He shares in the responsibility for the poor crowds. Whittingham has no problem having a full crowd in football

Fine by me, I hope Utah rots. The way Utah has treated the Aggies over the years they can rot in hell. Smith has a lot more money right now but would interesting to see if he truly is happy with his decision. Money is not everything in this world.

Re: Yewts likely out...
In coaching circles, Craig Smith is a really good coach. I agree. While on a different thread, a lot of fans drool over getting Will Wade (not going to happen), Smith beat Wade on a neutral with a walk on point. Craig's problem is his recruiting. Utah is in a better spot than when Craig took over, but I think he thought he could get fans. He can't. For whatever reason, he and his staff cannot get recruits.
On another note, I do not want to play CU in the tournament. They have been injured all year and now they are healthy and they look good.

Will Wade is much more likely to go to Louisville - it's like a match made in heaven. Maybe we can convince Washington to go after him though.

The look on Craig Smith's face reminds me of the look on David Caruso's face during his short-lived stint in the movie industry: "What have I done? Is it too late to go back?"

I am telling you all. Smith is an Aggie through and through. He hate utah as much as the rest of us. I would take 12 million dollars to keep Utah irrelevant in basketball too.

Re: Yewts likely out...
Don't think any place in the country would take smith over wade if given the choice. Smith has done a poor job at Utah. Recruiting is an issue, but they lost a lot of inexcusable pac games this year. If Utah is better now than when he took over it is minimal.

What's funny is the reported offer to Sprinkle is as much or more than what Craig made selling his soul.

Re: Yewts likely out...
Yeah. Brandon Carlson and Keita would do very well in the MW, and they have 2 other 7 footers that are more than serviceable. The PG Smith is really good as well. They got at least three shooters to spread the floor.bpd wrote: ↑March 15th, 2024, 9:56 amYou seriouis?hipsterdoofus21 wrote: ↑March 15th, 2024, 9:38 amWhen I watch the Utes I see a pretty loaded roster and size for days.

Re: Yewts likely out...
I think the u's problem is the Collette Curse. Their refusal to play us started their downward trend, and the "procurement" of Collette's services has turned him into their own Murphy the Goat. They'll have to miss the tournament until they either play us in the Spectrum or until Collette passes away after a long and healthy life.

Re: Yewts likely out...
I guess. Craig Smith's recruiting to USU was not sustainable. Odom was underwhelming as well, but he had a foot out the door. I'll be honest, this is all based on just what I remember, but the recruits we're getting with Sprinkle are players I am excited about. I didn't feel that way with Smith or Odom.hipsterdoofus21 wrote: ↑March 15th, 2024, 10:08 amYeah.

I watched some of their game last night for the first time this year. They looked like garbage. Every mountain west team I watched yesterday looked better than them.
