His commitment remains firm:

"I’m bummed because I really like and respect coach Lud a lot. He is super smart and I loved spending time watching film and talking football with him. I was excited to play for him, but I respect his decision to step down. I also have a great relationship with coach Whitt and coach Jake and all the staff is great. I still love the program, the fan base and the school l and I’m confident they will get everything figured out and definitely still committed."

I’ve been told that when Utah offers, they’d be the instant favorite to land him. He recently kicked a 63 yard that would have been good from 73.

Let's hope that we have a fun game tonight! The team and the fans need a solid win in a big way!

This is unfortunate news. I’ll have to see if Oregon got back in the picture. What I do know is that Dunn was the one recruit in the visit meetings that rebuttaled Utah’s NIL offer. Therefore NL money is going to be King for him.

What a brutal offensive showing. The defense deserves better and the skill position players on offense deserve better. Ludwig should be taking the lion's share of the blame for how this season has turned. Here are the takeaways from the loss.

How do I get rid of that?

I’ve been at most a very casual NFL fan, but now that CFB has transitioned to the pro model, I’ve realized just how much CFB is an absolutely garbage dump trash of a sports operation. Not only do I no longer enjoy CFB, I’ve actually come to hate it for being a travesty.

Even casually following the NFL, I really appreciate the grasp that NFL fan bases have on the importance of the GM role, roster management, and salary structuring.

Based on the talent level on the field I’d wager that most hard-core NFL fans have a better grip on these concepts than the Utah football staff does collectively. They’ve been caught with their pants around their ankles with respect to the transition to the pro model.

#1) Utah doesn’t have a lot of money to spend.
#2) Utah spent a lot of its money on injured/injury prone guys.

I’d guess that once Cam left the field, Utah has a lot less NiL salary on the field than other B12 teams.

I think KW knows how to win games, but he also knows how to suck the fun out of fandom like no other. I don’t get the idea that he’s any better at sucking up to the billionaire class for money either.

I’m probably being super unfair to Robert Blechen who’s likely a good dude in a limited role built for the old model, but what this program needs more than anything else is a GM of equal stature to KW.

And god forbid KW “retires” into a GM role because KW is absolute trash in this role.

Just a tough, well-coached team that simply wins.

Sitake is going to get BYU to the playoffs this year.

Meanwhile, here's hoping Utah can get to bowl eligibility!

Ngannou’s Return: What You Need to Know​

This monumental clash marks Ngannou’s PFL debut after a major signing with the organization in May 2023. His fight against Ferreira is one of the biggest in PFL history, as they vie for the newly created PFL Superfight Championship belt in the heavyweight division.

The Cameroonian powerhouse last fought in MMA at UFC 270 in January 2022, successfully defending his heavyweight title against Ciryl Gane. However, after a contract dispute, Ngannou parted ways with the UFC, leading Dana White to strip him of the heavyweight crown in early 2023.

Despite stepping away from the UFC, Ngannou has continued to make headlines. His recent ventures into boxing saw him face off with some of the sport’s biggest names, including Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, in back-to-back bouts in Riyadh. While he narrowly lost to Fury, going the distance, he was knocked out by Joshua in the second round of their May 2024 showdown.

The Battle of the Giants Awaits​

Now, Ngannou is back in his element, ready to show the MMA world that he’s still the “Predator” to beat. Renan Ferreira, known for his towering height and aggressive style, will be no easy challenge. With both fighters hungry for victory, this is a matchup you won’t want to miss.

MMA fans are in for a thrilling weekend as Francis "The Predator" Ngannou makes his long-awaited return to the cage in the highly anticipated "Battle of the Giants" against towering Brazilian contender Renan "Problema" Ferreira.
