Losing 4 guys on the OL to the NFL would normally hurt, but not from what I read. And, their coaches are so good.... It could be a close game! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midwestern Hawk Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I'm ready for some football. Does anyone know when fall camp starts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBR Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Let the Utes look in the mirror and tell themselves how wonderful they are. That is what Wyoming did two years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teeder11 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 It was mentioned in another thread (2-deep defensive starters) that Flowers was no longer listed on the roster. FWIW, he is listed on what seems to be an updated 2017 roster. The same roster omits Poole, Tim Ryan (who we already knew bolted), WR Carter Blackwell, and walk ons: OL Devan Hunt, LB Matt Marler and Punter Jacob Meeks. It also doesn't include Walk-on Grafton product Zak Hernandez at WR. It should be noted that there are usually add ons at the start of fall camp and more add ons once school starts again. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team really needs Flowers depth at safety. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall reading message boards prior to that game and they all said we didn't have a chance. Wyoming fans were really nice and accommodating (much like ours), but there were a couple before the game that gave me some crap. I think the Utah fans will be fun to party with as they seem a lot like our fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I am saying let them assume they only need show up like Wyoming did. With that said, the fans in Laramie treated me better than any fan base I've ever visited at that game.

To clarify for the trolls - Wyoming, at the time we played them and Utah, 2017, not even close to each other as a program. But yes, an over confident opponent can be good for us. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is a great test to see how far up Bubba has taken the program. Will be a lot of fun no matter what happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teeder11 Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 As far fetched as this stuff is at this point, it's still fun to think about 2 possible 1st round draft picks in 2018. https://tyrantscouting.com/2017/06/12/2018-small-school-draft-class-pre-season-big-board/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teeder11 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 8 questions for the offense: 1. Will Aplin/Rooney take the next step, as centers tend to do, following their first year of steady action (I refer back to Boas as a recent example of huge progression from year 1 to 2? 2. Will Studsrud settle down in the pocket early this year and make the routine look, well, routine? 3. Is Grady the missing link that adds talent and depth at the line so the surge can be more reminiscent of 2015? 4. Is Johanneson the real deal? 5. Can our big rangy wide outs add superb blocking on the outside to their list of attributes (I feel that this is an underrated skill that Top FCS teams do really well)? 6. What will the backup QBs bring to the table this year? 7. Will Demun emerge as a lethal long range weapon for the entire year? 8. What impact will speedsters McKinney and Adeoti (speculating that RS will be pulled) have on this year's offense? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
