"Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated" - The Rivalry Thread

[USUC]

Man, how is Utah so bad at the media game? Like just awful. I like that they are leaning into their trucker roots, but this production quality is giving flyingJ and PILOT a bad rap.

Bad at it? Perhaps this media strategy is carefully crafted using extensive market research data on the target audience.

correct, that looks like it would appeal to white trash.

Utah is bad at sports marketing in general and the social media game in particular. To be fair, there are a lot of major universities that are not good at these things and Utah is not too far at the bottom of the heap of mediocre players. But the fact that they are bad at it and their rival is one of the best at it makes them look that much worse.

Lots of Utah fans would love to get a lift from a trucker.

We have to turn around the bad first impression we made on the rest of the Big12. Involving a mullet-sporting semi truck driver in PR is a step in the right direction. it'll pay off later, you'll see,

See, the rest of the Big 12 just cannot relate to BYU's polish and professionalism. This will make the likes of TTech et al, become self-conscious. This coupled with BYU big spending and poaching other rosters is going to result in BYU supplanting Utah as the most hated in the conference. Wasn't BYU the most hated in the WAC for being the biggest fish in that pond?? It'll be terrible for missionary work.

From the group that when independence hit LOUDLY touted the merits of an HD production truck but now are trying to laugh at a player dancing in an empty trailer

Yes! My COMPLETELY unbiased opinion is that BYU has an amazing media office while Utah’s seems to be run by Temu.
