funk, you've got to think bigger. If Rice were not the absolute best thing for Utah hoops, would BYU fans be singing his praises for the job? Come on, now!“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

Look, I know you can do better than that. Hey, we beat Boise State!Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostPretty much equivalent of where the U is at right now.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

UCLA ≠ UtahOriginally posted by mpfunk View PostI'm shocked that UCLA hasn't already fired Ben Howland to get in on Dave Rice right now. Surely, there is going to be a bidding war with some really high profile programs for a guy that hasn't even been the top assistant for the majority of his career and has been a part of 1 NCAA tournament win in those 5 seasons."Nobody listens to Turtle."-Turtlesigpic

Let me see if I can set the correct sarcastic tone here...here goes...(you let me know how I do here LAUte)...Originally posted by Coach McGuirk View PostPretty much equivalent of where the U is at right now.
The Utes are the best program in the nation and deserve the best coach.

Sadly, this post is reflects a hidden truth: many Utah fans legitimately consider their basketball program to be of a comparable caliber to UCLA.Originally posted by mpfunk View PostI'm shocked that UCLA hasn't already fired Ben Howland to get in on Dave Rice right now.

But Dave Rice is that fucking good man, he shouldn't be somewhere like Utah. Did you not hear he recruited a bunch of really good LDS players to an LDS school, he is certainly going to steal all those players from BYU once he goes elsewhere. He also has been the top assistant at BYU for 4 years, I don't think Utah can do better than that. I don't even think we should pursue him because he will just turn us down. We would be lucky to get a high school coach, we could never get someone like Rice.Originally posted by Surfah View PostUCLA ≠ UtahAs I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression

We aren't on the level of UCLA by any means, but we aren't Big Sky/WAC level like BYU fans think.Originally posted by Donuthole View PostSadly, this post is reflects a hidden truth: many Utah fans legitimately consider their basketball program to be of a comparable caliber to UCLA.As I lead this army, make room for mistakes and depression
