I hope grandma survived that Coach Whit hijacking from the airport the day he returned with honor.

it was imperative that Elder H saw the new weight room before being released from his mission.

Keep your hands off of Elder Chase Hanson!

We already lost that battle, ask kccougar.

Anyone know how he doing at BYU anyway?

How's Utah commit Ty Jones doing?

[imanihonjin]

Looks like Dr. Hill gives the finger to Ute fans again by ignoring all your petitions to stop the football series permanently. How long are you guys going to let him treat you this way?

Think of the liability he has taken upon himself and the program to now have the well documented dirty cougars playing the Utes.

All joking about who is the better program (recap--Utah in football, Byu in a host of small sports that are excellent places to have a picnic), I love the rivalry but we should be smarter than to schedule BYU for the first game of the year. Byu traditionally comes out of the gates charging like a bull, sparking hopes of national championships before devolving into a firing heap of gator rolls before the season is at the midway point. Utah, on the other hand, usually starts slowly on offense and defense before they become a juggernaut on defense and even worse on offense by the end of the season. Bad timing Chris Hill, PhD.

Making preemptive excuses already?

I love this thread so much. It almost makes me wish I was living in Utah again so I could see some actual Ute fans and experience the angst in person.

You must REALLY love this thread.

Uh, didn't you see the map?

Looks like Jones is going to follow LeRoy Tanoi as the next Utah commit to flip to BYU. I'm sure MP already knows that, though.

Bwahaha....looked at ufn to see what they had to say and saw this gem:

I hate saying this, but the way to not play the zoobs in the future is to not buy tickets to the game, and if you have season tickets, don't go. Also, don't watch it on a legit stream, don't tweet about it, don't post to facebook about it, etc.

The stone cut from the mountainside cannot be stopped by the puny arms of the Utes.

[TripletDaddy]

I wouldnt mind if they didnt go to the game.

[imanihonjin]

I wouldnt mind if they didnt go to the game.

It really would be best for everyone.

[wapiti]

Yeah, it wouldn't be hard to fill that tiny stadium with blue.

You think I actually follow recruiting? I can't even be bothered to show up at football games.
