        I agree. LOL at the fans who wrote that on wikipedia. But at least UCLA and Kentucky have a boatload of championships. The main jewel of Utah's basketball glory is a championship of an 8 team tournament before the jump shot. I guess Rutgers is football royalty because they won a national championship after a 2 game season before the forward pass existed.

        Of course Utah had a great run under Majerus and has had real sweet 16 appearances since. I'm jealous of those accomplishments. But the lists SU wrote and the Wikipedia links you are posting to try to show how much more dominant Utah's full history is than BYU is pretty silly.

          I will add that Utah's only national championship came the last year they didn't play BYU. Coincidence?

            Well the way we play at BYU now, it's also warlike.

              I think not!

                Utah played in the NIT first, (the NIT which is where all the good schools played during that time) and they lost in the first round!!!

                After an accident killed several Arkansas players and a coach, the NCAA needed another team for the junior tournament. None of the big boys cared to play in a consolation tournament. They reluctantly asked Utah if they would fill in Arkansas spot and the utes end up winning it, becoming the 9th best team in the country and probably throwing a parade.

                Keep claiming that title though. Seriously it's a big deal.
                It was also during WW2, so many of the best players from the best teams did not play in that tournament.

                    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."

                      A friend just told me to search "ute" and "audit" on Twitter. I'm so glad I did.

                        It's time for the state to reallocate the funds given the different state schools with Utah receiving its Pac 12 money.

                          There is a lot of ridiculous things in Utah politics. The waste of taxpayer money for this audit is right up there with the Zion curtain.

                              Every organization that receives substantial taxpayer funds should be audited on a regular basis. If that's not happening, this is a good start. If it is happening already, the regular scheduled audit should suffice.
