    Nice little squib on Travis Wilson in today's LA Times:

      It's cute that he thinks he will be able to use his snow board.

        In HIGH SCHOOL, we would get in BIG trouble and would be benched for baseball or basketball games if we were caught skiing. He may as well leave the snowboard at home. He won't even be allowed to wear his boots inside his dorm room.

        A future star QB would let down the team, school, and the collective fanbase if he sustained a shoulder or wrist injury while snowboarding.

          Utah gets a commitment from Alexandru Ceachir, an OT from California. He's an early enrollee, and coaches are expecting he'll compete for a starting spot next season.

          Solid pick-up.

              I found this interesting.

              Utah has the largest difference of NFL talent produced vs. recruiting ranking in the country. Or in other words, Utah is developing more of its average recruits and turning them into NFL draft picks than most schools.

              I came across this while reading an Arizona State Message Board Thread regarding about Whittingham to the Sun Devils. Pretty entertaining thread, some ASU fans find it unforgivable to lose to Colorado at home and don't want anything to do with Whitt, while others think it would be an incredible hire.

                This is akin to you and I arguing about whether or not we'd get it on with Cindy Crawford or not because she was much better 15 years ago than she is now.

                It's not going to happen so WTF are those losers even talking about Whit? Yeah, the CU loss probably makes him a bit less attractive, but he's still not an option for them.

                  Kid is from Moldova. Has only played 2 years of organized football and is reportedly still kind of raw. From Santa Monica College. Should help on the o- line. "The Moldovan Mauler." I can see it now....

                      I look forward to the day he pancakes a kid and a clever Ute fan says the poor soul got "Cheachired". Or they make a wildcat package for him called the Cheachir package.

                        a Ute fan would only use Weddle as a verb.

                          Don't make me do a "Blenchened" search on ufn. You wouldn't like what I'd find.

                            Joke's on you, they disabled the in-board search function.

                            Also, your ufn search would yield results from people who post on ufn. Of course I won't like what you find.

                              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."
