Utah Football 2018

In case ya'll have been losing sleep at night wondering about where Jack Tuttle ended up:

http://www.espn.com/college-football...diana-hoosiers


Evidently upset that he didn't get to be the starter at Utah, Tuttle decided to head to Indiana and try to compete for the starting position there. It's almost the same QB situation as Utah -- they have two very talented quarterbacks already in Michael Penix Jr and Peyton Ramsey.

Peyton Ramsay tossed almost 3000 yards and 19 TDs, and rushed for another 5 TDs. Pretty decent numbers.

Michael Penix Jr is a dual threat QB out of Florida, and was highly recruited -- although he sat out the 2018 season with an injury. So for Tuttle it seems like a case of "out of the frying pan, into the.....frying pan." :lol8:

Tuttle's transfer to IU really doesn't make much sense. But a couple things about Tuttle... I understand he was a great teammate at Utah and did everything that was asked of him. I also understand it's his father pulling the strings and pushing the buttons with regards to his football career. Sounds like a little league parent gone wild.

Anyhoo... I wish him luck, transfers are just part of the game. Utah has benefited greatly from a couple recent transfers. You win some and you lose some.

Full details about each recruit

New recruits should probably be in the 2019 thread... just sayin

Wow, Talyor took a huge pay cut to leave Utah. He gave up approximately $600k for a $200k job. Running Utah's offense under Whitt must really suck.

Utah Utes need an offensive coordinator that can live in Kyle Whittingham's world - https://www.deseretnews.com/90004702...ams-world.html

Wow

I'm shocked!

No Huntley in today's bowl game.

Utah is a 6.5 point favorite.

I heard they were listed as co-starters. Guess not. No safety valve in Covey.

Here we go!!!

Chase Hansen out too. That’s big.

Utah is on fire, if Northwestern gets in a hole against that D it will be a really long night for them.

Also Shelly looks great. The 2 weeks of bowl practice working with the one's looks like it's paying major dividends

Do they not have a QB controversy next season?

Maybe not. Terrible throw.

Whatever happens at QB next year Utah is set for the next three years. Shelley should just keep getting better.

Live and die by Shelley.

Here comes the good ole Utah choke.

Whitt probably wishing they decided to ground and pound to chew up the clock. Make them earn it.

Epic meltdown. 28 in the 3rd.

Northwestern scores 28 unanswered points in one quarter. WTF?

Looking like a landslide victory for Northwestern, who looked dazed and confused for the first two quarters.

Well, after that fifth ludicrous turnover I'm officially done. Switching over to Netflix.

G'night boys.

Bummer. I thought they had this game in the bag for sure. So close to 10 wins.

Two more, but you get the picture...lol

That was a pathetic performance in the Holiday Bowl... that is all....

I was watching with my 13 yr old and after that fifth turnover and just as I was turning off the game he aptly blurts out "It's so hard to be a Utah fan."

Indeed it is my son, especially after that embarrassing performance. I believe every Utah fan shares those same sentiments.

I'm trying to console myself with the fact that Utah was playing without four very important starters. And speaking of which...where the hell was Hansen? I don't think he would've missed out on playing in this game for anything. Must have been something really major to make him not play his last collegiate game. :ne_nau:

I'm guessing Hansen skipped to get ready for the NFL combine, which is what a lot of top players do who are not playing for a National Championship. Why risk millions of dollars to try and win a game that few really care about. Playing in the Holiday Bowl is a no win for someone like Hansen as they can't increase their NFL value, but they certainly can decrease it.

YMMV

^^^ Yup, and Chase Hansen's NFL eligibility remains in doubt due to injury.

My 11-yr-old was stoked to meet him after the BYU game last year.
