      We really do. By any metric.

      BTW, we were watching highlights of the Utah basketball game the other day (Washington State) on the local news station. I kid you not, the entire MUSS student section was 2-3 rows of students. Maybe 40-50 students. Looked like 200-300 fans total, although I think it was officially listed as 6000 or so (Lol). My wife thought it was sad. I thought it was funny.

            They put the "12" in the Pac-12.

                    If you counted only Utah fans hoping BYU will suck, we would still have an amazing fan base.

                            Reminds me of a story I saw in my Twitter feed the other day:

                            A man approaches the widow at a funeral and asks, "May I say a word?"

                            The widow replies, "Please do."

                            The man says, "Bargain."

                            The widow then says, "Thank you, that means a great deal."

                              Let's just be honest here, college basketball is basically a body in a vegetative state on a feeding tube. Utah is just getting on the ground floor early on the eventual death of this sport.

                                Ha! College basketball has been on its death bed since the 80s. If anything, college basketball has its best outlook in a long time with the possibility of players sticking around with lucrative NIL deals.

                                I think college football dies before college basketball does with its bran trauma and liability, but no I don't foresee the demise of college football anytime soon.
