    Don't get all that excited about the win.
    That thread is awesome. Lots of posts about how they "hung with" BYU. And lots of complaining about how unethical BYU is. Moral victories abound. It's a great time to be a BYU fan.

      That's the beauty of being an LDS Ute fan - you can act like an asshole all you want and you don't have to worry about how it reflects on the university, because everyone pretty much expects assholiness, or your church.

        It must cut Lohner to the quick to have LAUte booing him.

          Where is someone when they are 65+ years old and booing a 20-year-old because he made an obviously better life choice? When does someone grow out of that?

          The Sainted Lavell Edwards totally broke lapUke. What a rude awakening it will be when word trickles down to him that The Saint is still RUTSing in the CK.

          For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

          Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

            Good grief. LAUte:

            I loudly booed Lohner every chance I got. Then I saw that he was short tempered and a whiner. We are going to have a fun few years of disliking him.
            Imagine a grown man booing a kid playing basketball. Wow.

            Oh, and Pope only recruits RMs if they have committed to another school.

            Anybody know how many RMs Pope has on his roster? Just a wild guess, but I suspect he’s not really headed in that direction in his recruiting. (Unless it’s somebody on a mission who he really wants, and is already committed to another school.)
            Lol @ some of you clowns who recently wondered why people don't like this guy.

              • Looks like dem Utes got the Lohner situation all figured out, and without having any specifics!

                Regarding the Lohner cheating accusations - I don’t know any specifics, but it looks really bad. A guy signs an LOI, I believed enrolled at the U and then before the season is going to start and far to late to recruit someone else suddenly just decides to go to BYU. Whether payments or employment happened I don’t know, but it is hard to believe that nobody was talking to Lohner or his family from BYU. You’ve got to be pretty naive to believe otherwise.

                You may say it is part of the game or whatever, but not a great look for BYU. Yeah, yeah, you can point out Collette, which you guys also at the time felt was horrible and made the same exact accusations we make about Lohner. In short, BYU was almost certainly talking to a player signed with another team.
                In response to the statement that BYU was almost certainly breaking the rules and talking to Lohner:

                Yeah, I don’t think anyone can deny that happened. Pope is greasier than an oil rig.
                I guess Lohner has zero agency in all of this - no way he makes any decisions about his basketball and schooling future without (1) payments, (2) employment, or (3) illegal and secret persuasion by Pope.
                Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                Dig your own grave, and save!

                      UNETHICAL Y'ALL! UNFREAKINGETHICAL!
                      I think "unethical" in the endemic language somehow includes "fan of the losing team." Didn't Utah pick up a kid from Utah State, a big lefty, like two days before the first game a few years back.

                            • Second half - Gonzaga in a one-possession game right now with something called Tarleton.

                              • The Gonzaga update reminds me that I watched the Gonzaga/Duke game and forgot to comment about it.

                                So here is my comment: Those are two very, very good basketball teams. Regardless of whether the Zags are in a one possession game with Tarleton, they're still really really good. As is Duke.
