Re: 2024 USU FOOTBALL SPRING BALL: The Quarterback Battle

Best Guess: 1. Legas 2. Barnes 3. Petras 4. Hillstead (once they see he isn't head and shoulders better, they'll use the redshirt) I think it is possible that Barnes is a better QB than Cooper, but the advantage in playbook and receiver familiarity is not something I'd underestimate. Quite frankly, ...

Re: Who so you want at DC?

With having to let a "friend" in Cauthen go, this may cause Coach Anderson to steer clear of hiring Danny Gonzales. Unless he is explicitly directed to not hire a friend, I am assuming he will look to someone that he wants to have around and will fall in line (like all other coaches prefer when the...

Please remember that we were only favored in 3 or 4 of our games and still pulled off 6.
