There will be a statue of Kyle Whittingham at Rice-Eccles Stadium, it is only a matter of time.
Actual living legend. He's grinding down the entire system. He'll do it all over again from the Big 12.
Amen brother
As a Utah fan I always love the moment of loudness and seeing the visiting team also stand and turn on their phone lights
I couldn't have been blessed with a more awesome program to be associated with my whole life. We've had season tickets since the 90's! Rice Eccles is going to be rocking today! Utes 28-24 🙌
This is a great video. Now a Utah supporter!
dude is a legend. Utes here to stay
Excellent job Spencer Hall. This team, it's culture and rise to stardom has one foundation-corner stone. Coach Whitt.
Great video. If i could add a few things.
Utah didn't have to look hard to find Jonah Ellis, his father Luther Ellis is an all time Utah great. Luther played under Ron McBride. It was McBride and staff that laid the foundation for the run first, play tough defense identity that is Utah. Kyle Whittingham was on that staff. I'd also credit McBride with expanding and emphasising the Polynesian recruiting pipeline. Speaking of run first and Polynesians, look up Chris Fuamatu-Maʻafala. That should give you a good idea of where this all started.
HATU
100% McBride kicked off the culture that's present at Utah now. Whittingham learned from him for almost a decade as the defensive coordinator. Luther Elliss is Utah's defensive tackles coach for a second season.
My health teacher was a coach at corner canyon at the time when Jonah Ellis was there
Any football aficionado and or profitable gambler has respected Utah once they defeated Bama in 09 Sugar Bowl back when everyone played and took Bowl Games seriously. Bama squad had Mark Ingram and Julio Jones and was held to 2 TDs. Because of its location and relatively small market and given where other schools are located within the Pac12 it’s often under appreciated by the avg joe but make no mistake opponents don’t undervalue the Utes they’ll get your undivided attention.
Polynesian domination
Utah has been a continual threat to all their opponents, for a long time. As a Duck fan, I am not confident about the outcome of today’s game (20231028).
When two teams are about evenly matched if the home team has an advantage at QB & HC you take the home team. Hence why Washington over Oregon was the obvious play. Utah has HC advantage not QB advantage but top to bottom Oregon has health on their side and more overall talent. This is going to be a weird game, I don’t trust Bo Nix or Lanning in close games on the road, stay away game as a bettor.
Utah ain’t going anywhere soon! Go Utes!
Agree. Utah didn’t look good against Oregon in 2023, but Utah will remain a good team moving into the Big 12 and will win a lot of games.
Wow, loved this
I loved this episode and this is the first that I have seen. Seriously. Awesome stuff. Thank you. College football is just the best. Great show.
ESPN give us more of Spencer Hall
Bro's working on some Greenskins in the background, that Stompa gotta be a pain to put together
Utah recruits California very well then developes NFL talent.
They dont get the athletes oregon or sc gets but agree development ofer their is crazy
Utes by 3!
Spencer Hawes.
I really loved this video. It was both informative and just really good.... very good... great. However... if Kyle Whittingham had this team in the Big 10 (I'm an Ohio State fan), they would look like Iowa.... and no one thinks of Iowa as a powerhouse.
Look... I'm not trying to downplay anything that Utah or Whittingham have done. I'm not. I really love what they do. It reminds me of Kirk Ferentz... only Whittingham seems to be able to have good offenses.
There’s no doubt in my mind when he retires there will be statue built in his honor at rice Eccles
The question I’ve been afraid to ask would not be one I’d pose to the biased ESPN.
Whittingham has been great for Utah football! But we can't forget the work of Ron McBride and Urban Meyer.
how did michigan flip the script on ohio state the past few years
As a USC fan quite frankly im sick of UTAH.
Bwahaha let's go utes!
@@user-tn2pe7uf2d lol
It’s okay we won’t be seeing you for awhile. We’re taking our 4 game win streak (3-0 against Riley and nail painting Williams) to the big 12. So long
@@seanfaerber4918 Thank god for that.
Quite frankly everyone is sick of USC. The school of spoiled children killed the PAC-12 to be a mid team in the Big 10, just because the athletic director wanted a big payday.
"Utah? Utah of all places?" Your view from Mount Pious must be amazing.
That Oregon game would’ve been better if they were at 100%. Would they have won? Maybe. Oregon was too good for our bench.
