Brian Johnson leaving Utah

[UGLI baby]

I have no idea what the **** The U is doing this offseason. Demoting Erickson was a mistake. Making Travis Wilson play with a broken hand was a mistake. Blaming Erickson for Travis Wilson having a broken hand was a mistake.

I don't really understand the Erickson thing, but I think he is on board with his new role.

The dude could be an OC at dozens of places if he wanted, but has chosen to stay and is really really positive about the University.

Like I said, I don't really understand the situation, but that does not read like a guy who is unhappy with his role here. I always thought of him as a "mercenary for hire" type coach, but maybe in his older age he is really enjoying being at Utah and is happy with his new role.

@Fatchipper just realize that after you win your bet with Trout, he will wait 5 months to pay you half, then put a condition (that you can't meet) on paying you the 2nd half of the bet, then about a year later get mad at you when he finally pays off the bet.

Or we could look at past track records. I've never welched on a bet. I rarely lose, so I don't even really get the opportunity, but on the rare occasion that I do have to pay, I pay. You, on the other hand, have a solid reputation for being an unhelpful wiener-dick who has no problem lying to get what you want. Bottom line, you got your money and you showed yourself to be of the lowest character when you did. I won't enter another wager with you ever again, unless it's for pride (bring on the pong, bitch) because I know I'll never get paid, or if I do, there will be some bull **** string attached.

If rumors are true, Erickson hit a wall midway through the season. I've heard some people infer that Dennis is quite happy with his responsibilities being downsized while he still collects his 250k salary.

After a couple months to take it all in, I'm fine with what went down. Erickson is in his twilight but he's still a great recruiter and brings some good name recognition to the staff. He has started to make some good inroads in Florida and that's a big deal for Utah.

The OC carousel has been a joke but that shouldn't take away from the fact that Dave Christiansen can run a great offense.

WTF are you talking about?

Either this is some good **** talking or you are forreal kind of a crazy/retarded person.

I mean this in all seriousness, are you chemically imbalanced/have trouble with reality and relating it to life sometimes? I am not without problems of my own so I say this in a non judgmental way.

Literally all that happened was we made a bet, you paid me half, then when I owed you money I paid you back in full, minus the amount you still owed me.

This is one of the most simple concepts I can imagine, and a principle of day to day life.

If you are **** talking/trolling me, congrats, you got me to react. If not you are weird and I don't really want to have any future dealings with you because you remind me of a dude I know who at any time can invent a reason why you owe him something or screwed him out of something, no matter how bizarre and unrealistic.

Really hope you are ****ing with me about this.

You rarely lose?! This is in and of itself is a complete lie considering you habitually bet on BYU to beat Utah and that happens about twice a decade. Hell, you had yet to become a cage fighter the last time BYU won that game.

No way your Jazzfanz betting record is above .500
