    lol



    I don't know if it's true, but it appears that, as with basketball, BYU has gotten serious about NIL in football. It is absolutely killing many uofutah fans.
    Give 'em Hell, Cougars!!!

    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."

        The funniest part about Ute fans being super pissed and outraged about BYU NIL is they think they belong in the Big Ten. What TF do they think they would be up against in that conference?

          Correct. And further showing how far out of their depth that they are, NIL doesn't come from conference earnings, but from those with passion for the University/Team. Or in other words punmping gas doesn't bring in much for NIL.

            Alex Markham claiming BYU is lying to recruits about what the payouts will be is complete propaganda. The guy is terrible.

                      I can imagine the entertainment value. Been on your side and happy to see you guys enjoy it finally.

                      The funny thing is that Tanuvasa was a totally ripe opportunity for BYU, and it's not like we haven't lost RM's to BYU before, just usually not suddenly between seasons and without money involved. Seems like this shouldn't be creating the drama it seems to be creating.

                      Frankly, I think it is very charitable of Utah to donate a DL to BYU. Apparently, BYU is having a hard time in that position. I just hope that BYU hasn't overpaid and created problems in the locker room with lower compensated DLs. I mean, I hope for Po'uha's sake, 'cuz i like that guy. For the rest of BYU football's sake, I hope that they all catch gonorrhea from a toilet seat.

                        Tanavasu's dad posted today that Utah offered a comparable NIL package so the decision to move was not based on money.

                          On the field of play Tanavusa will help BYU far more than him leaving Utah will hurt Utah. Emotionally, he and his pops are throwing fuel on a fire that has been re-ignited after a period of dormancy. Utah will be fine but the rivalry is certainly back in the forefront once again. Aspects of that will be fun for all sports fans but there are some Utes who I think really appreciated the separation and moving on-but much like Mister CAR-tur.....WELCOME BACK!

                            An admirable effort Wally. Really, really hard to talk down to an 11-2 team that beat your 5-7 team this year. You did about as good as anyone could have with such limited space to work.

                              Yet another transfer from Utah to BYU.

                              Being able to expand my faith alongside academic questions and classroom teaching has been nothing less than life-changing.
