Sounds like he's a great player when he's focused, but he has a history of being a loose cannon. We don't need that.
Now for some positive news...

"Unfortunately, a couple days ago, Manny informed us that he is retiring from football. He's got a business opportunity that he felt was too good to pass up and the opportunity was for right now," Whittingham said. "He is exiting football and starting a business career. We wish him the best, hate to see him go. We were excited about what he was going to bring to the table this season."
Bowen's decision came out of the blue for the program.
"It surprised us completely, because there was no hint or anything out of the ordinary all through summer. All of the sudden, it just came up," Whittingham said.

Steele: Utah's defensive line ranks atop big boys Alabama, Clemson
1. Utah Utes
The Utes continue to produce elite defensive lines, as this position is the primary recruiting emphasis here. This season is no different, as all four starters return after allowing just 100 yards per game on the ground (No. 5 in FBS) while collecting 37 sacks. Defensive end Bradlee Anae (eight sacks in 2018) and defensive tackles Leki Fotu and John Penisini are listed as either first or second on my All-Pac-12 preseason team, with each player likely having a future in the NFL.

Too much hype? Utah ranked #15 in the coaches poll.

^^^Not one single team from the PAC12 South Division besides Utah.
USC is notably absent.
At the BYU and Utah scrimmages Saturday... Kyle Whittingham says Jaylen Dixon is “as legitimate deep threat as there is the country. ‘ Kalani Sitake says Ty’Son Williams is an every down back.
Two weeks from this Thursday...
We saw flashes of brilliance out of Dixon last year...and I don't think Williams is going to be much of an every down back vs. Utah's D-line.
Is it too early to start giving our score predictions?

It's a little scary because Utah has always struggled to live up to expectations.
Is there any team in the country that isn't predicting a great season ahead at this point in time?

Drinking the Koolaid. I’ve got the Utes at 10-2 with loses at USC and Washington.
What are your picks?
I have the Utes only loss at Washington.
11-1
If there ever was a year that they could pull that off it would be this year, especially since the rest of the Pac12 is a little soft right now.
I'm 11-1 with a loss at Washington.

Urban Meyer visited the Utes today. Meyer told Whittingham a few weeks back that was going to be passing through SLC. Whitt invited him to talk to the team. Whitt on it being 15 years since Meyer left: “I can’t believe it when I sit and think about it. Those memories come back.”
I asked Covey how he’s feeling physically now just eight days away from the opener at BYU: “I had a bit of a rough beginning of the week, but finally, the swelling’s gone down and I feel good again.”
I followed up by asking Covey when he’s going to be back to his 100 percent, sprinting, Britain Covey self: “There are times when I feel like it, for sure.” He added he anticipates being out there and available next week against BYU.

Lotta national hype for the Utes this year, but local medial is tempering with some even calling for a byu upset. The Utes will also remember how damn close they came to blowing the game last year. I think the Utes come out ready to roll and extend the opening day win streak to 12, and my 8 year son can still live in a world where he has never witnessed a byu win in the rivalry.
Utes roll 38-13
Your son is a lucky boy :-)

^^^^ geez I hate when the media makes these wild projections, because Utah never fails to step on their dick in magnificent fashion.
This guy predicts a national championship berth and now watch Utah lose to BYU in the very first week. :roll:
We are in countdown mode, fellas...
Utah vs. BYU this Thursday
Utah's winning streak is now old enough to be baptized -- will they make it to 9?
Utah wins 38-21
If my memory serves Kyle Van Noy has 0 wins against the Utes. I think it continues.
Welp, getting close the kickoff. The line closed at -6.5 for Utah and 48.
