Stop hijacking the thread. No one here cares about the mediocre Utes and their overrated coach.

UNLV, NM, and BYU are in much stronger positions. Leaving Utah to hope to catch up with SDSU.

I wonder how long Boylen will last, leading Utes to 5th place finishes.

Whether Rose has had as good a year as Boylen did last year is debatable. Who accomplished more between BYU this season and Utah last season is debatable. The difference is as thin as a dime either way. You should be concerned that this is as good as it gets with the best player BYU has had in 30 years. BYU was nothing special this year. It beat a lot of bad teams like Utah State did, then choked on its home floor and lost the title to New Mexico and failed to redeem itself in either tournament. It had to fight way to hard to beat a mediocre ("last in") Florida team in the first round and then got killed in round two. That's your best season in at least 18 years. Does that meet your expectations? Are you satisfied? Because that's as good as it will get.

By the way, it's always the same story when BYU is up in football or basketball. BYU winds up nothing more than a bag of wind.

I would rather lose with worthy brothers, than win with rats.

I'm nearing temptation where I'd love to see us just win.

I was on a mission with St. Ainge made the immaculate run. So I have never enjoyed a significant penetration into bosom of the Tourney.

At times we seem on the edge then fail. That's almost worse than not even being close, though both stink.

Why do you say Bogut, Van Horn, Miller, Doleac, Jensen, Smith, BJ are rats? Because they're not Mormons?

Why would I say that? For example, you're Mormon, and you're a rat.
