For all the Phoenix area Ute fans, don't forget to take a long weekend and watch the PAC champion Pingin' Utes take on Nebraska and OSU in the B1G-PAC challenge. Nebraska always brings a big crowd so Utes need to represent.

Wilcox is a good coach. It sounds like he's going to bring Tosh Lupoi with him as DC. Lupoi is a dirty as hell recruiter who had an NCAA show cause against him. I don't like that.
Found this gem:
Wherever Lupoi goes, controversy follows.

It's a hard place to win since they have real academic requirements.
Are they any tougher than Stanford's academics?

No clue.

I wonder where he'll wind up. Maybe he wants to return to home s roots as a RB coach :) That would be weird.

With Kicfin to USF and Taggart to Oregon, recruiting could get interesting in the sunshine state. I'd like to see the second position coach have a strong Florida connection, but wonder if we aren't refocusing on Texas. BJ in Houston makes that interesting too
Agreed.

Not to get off subject but I'd guest that next year at this time we'll have a 15 page thread on Quifin and USF. I'm just guessing from his past performance or lack of it. The short time under Saban isn't going to fix his Character issues... Bookmark this so you can laugh at me next year if I'm wrong. :P

Kiffin getting fired before finishing the season at Bama is a great start.

NEWBookmarkLockedFalling .CFB 2017 RB predictions
Admin Avatar

0 824 by Admin
How do you guys think the carries will be distributed next year between Shine, Moss, DHC, McCormick, etc?

I think we'll have much more even distribution of carries than in previous years. Under ARod, some backs simply did not get reps because they hadn't picked up the blocking scheme (Why Booker didn't immediately start) and orhers were just too small to pas block (McCormick).
I think this was an ARod design flaw, because you can't utilize a fast change-of-pace spread back in the run game if your pass game utilizes a TE and RB in pass protection on almost every passing attempt (not a spread offense).

Taylor basically never uses the RB in pass pro, so pass catching out of the backfield is going to superceed run blocking as a requirement for RB reps. I think that means a bigger role for our small speed backs.

4th and Long

Disclaimer: I haven't listened yet, but it sounds like some major insight into some team leadership issues and issues with fatigue/burnout due to workout/practice schedule.
Not sure about leadership issues, but I seem to remember burnout do to training schedules coming up on the plate during KW's first couple years as HC. I thought that had been fixed and lessons learned. I hope this isn't an issue with as many years as he's had to refine a training program that keeps things in balance.

Our offense favors the QB who can do the most variety of things the least badly. That is why the 4 year QB progression under ARod is uniformly a progression to widespread mediocrity. It's not an accident that our 4th year QBs more closely resemble eachother than they do their freshman selves
Thanks for bringing this to my attention and I agree

People say our QBs don't progress, but they really do. It's just that they progress to something that is pretty unspactacular. That's evidence of bad design more than bad coaching.
