I am kind of glad that some of the arrogance has been pounded out of the Utah fan base... The fact is we were getting more than a little Zootish.
That said I find myself being a little more optimistic than a lot of Ute fans I am reading. The Utes will need a little "racing luck" next year, but really with the turmoil at QB, O-line, and LB in the last few years the Utes have not had a lot of "racing luck."
So while I realize that things can go South in a hurry, I think the Utes are better prepared to deal with adversity next year than in the last two years. On top of that I have an admittedly illogical hunch that a few breaks will go the Utes way this coming season.
I lead a sheltered life and have never heard of that nut. Wiki says Jones has a nationally syndicated radio show with an audience estimated at 2 million people. Scary $#!+ if folks actually believe him.
From Wiki:
Jones has been the center of many controversies, such as the one surrounding his statements about gun control in the wake of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting (a hoax). He has accused the U.S. government of being involved in the Oklahoma City bombing, the September 11 attacks, and the filming of fake Moon landings to hide NASA's secret technology[8] and killing of "thousands of astronauts". Rolling Stone covers his belief that government and big business have colluded to create a New World Order through "manufactured economic crises, sophisticated surveillance tech and—above all—inside-job terror attacks that fuel exploitable hysteria".
He also claims bin Laden was killed long ago, put on ice, and then his killing staged to help Obama.
Lord knows there are plenty of goofy #%!@s on the left, but this goofy #%!@ takes the right wing cake - at least I hope so. Anyone know someone goofier?
People can act like Fred Phelps and his army of bigots are an isolated group, but this extreme ideology is more prevalent than most realize.
And as far as Alex Jones goes, I'll admit that I tune in once in awhile to hear what's going on in crazyland. How else would I know which people to avoid.
Conspiracy theorist radio host Alex Jones explained to his audience today how the government could have been behind the devastating May 20 tornado in Oklahoma.
On the May 21 edition of The Alex Jones Show, a caller asked Jones whether he was planning to cover how government technology may be behind a recent spate of sinkholes. After laying out how insurance companies use weather modification to avoid having to pay ski resorts for lack of snow, Jones said that "of course there's weather weapon stuff going on -- we had floods in Texas like 15 years ago, killed 30-something people in one night. Turned out it was the Air Force."
Following a long tangent, Jones returned to the caller's subject. While he explained that "natural tornadoes" do exist and that he's not sure if a government "weather weapon" was involved in the Oklahoma disaster, Jones warned nonetheless that the government "can create and steer groups of tornadoes."
I'm really not trying to be a dick, but the article you cited states the exact opposite of your statement, and you can hardly say that the headline suggests anything when it specifically reads "More tornadoes from global warming? Nobody knows".
Congratulations to Coach Anderson for making the Utah-USU game a big, meaningful event. I do not think the Utes will take it for granted (not to infer they did last year).
1 - Install a pro offense for a QB that couldn't throw. He did that. Then that QB went down. Now you are left with Hays. So, you have to completely overhaul the entire offense to suit it for Hays. So,
2 - You install a semi-spread offense to help Hays along. The guy isn't very talented, can't make reads, but did ok for you the year before. You go with that for a little while, then discover that isn't going to work. So you change the offense a THIRD time and
3 - Go to a more spread offense with Wilson.
BJ went through THREE offensive systems last year.
Yeah, he wasn't amazing, but the guy is still a GREAT coach, and will continue to impress everyone he is around.

On the internet, there are people called "Trolls" --
not because they look like monsters -- but because they troll around
different message boards, throwing out little baited
hooks hoping to get a bite from some eager fish. And
like any fisherman, the Trolls won't
stay very long if no one bites
