Official UofU homer thread

It's not a bad strategy to save this sort of thing for when you really need it, and the argument about avoiding injury is a good one. Saying that injuries are part of the game and therefore you shouldn't take precautions with your starting quarterback makes no sense.

I said u should at least use him as a runner on a limited basis. U do have a point that they may be holding back till conference play opens.
 
Even running run plays for Williams on a limited basis will open up the run game some for the rb's. Running Williams should not completely be ignored.

Ignore Williams' running ability. Did you not see Huntley last night? If We're Liam's gets hurt we may not win another game.

Didn't u hype up Huntley a day or so ago along with half the team?

Also I put no stock in garbage time. I still remember Ronnie Mack throwing away Alex Smith's redshirt year. That didn't look good either

Even with USC being 1-2, I think Utah has to play their best game by far to beat them. The Trojan's are going to be FIGHTING like hell not to fall to 1-3. In fact, I don't know if I can even fathom them falling to 1-3.

A bright spot for Utah as the season rolls on: This amazing 3-headed monster at RB. Every one of these guys are legit, and since there's 3 of them, Utah can play their ground it out strategy without having to worry about burning out a single workhorse back like Booker.

Troy Williams still has to get better at the turnovers but I think it's fair to say at this point that Williams and Utah's WRs are superior to what Utah had in the passing game last year. They could really hammer teams on the ground with these 3 RB's and actually have a QB that can make a defense pay for loading up on the run.

I think Utah is slowly becoming the team many of us envisioned at the beginning of the year. Problem is, they still haven't put it all together yet. They'll absolutely have to this week.
 
Re: USC
Ya, this game is going to be TOUGH.

Re: Williams running
Whit has said that the reason they're not going to run him as much this year is to keep him safe. He outright said that Travis was good at it but got hurt and it was scary. With only two scholly QB's they want to use the RB depth. He said this during the Crimson Club Coaches Luncheon and I'm pretty sure it made it to the press but I don't have a source for you unless I'm the source because I WAS THERE MAN

Yeah, I did. I said that Huntley has all the talent in the world and in a couple of years has potential to be really, really good.

The kid is a true freshman. I'm not silly enough to believe in a true freshman. True freshmen suck at QB.

Like you said, look at Alex Smith his freshman yr. How did that go? How did that end?

Keep true freshmen off the field at QB. It doesn't help them at all.
