It's good to see Boylen reach for some real talent, unlike the team down south that just takes players from Provo High.

Utes will be the dominant BBALL team in the state again, thanks to good recruiting. You don't make it to the final four off of Utah only talent... look how many times Utah High school players have made the NBA in recent years? Then look at Bogut, Doleac, Andre Miller, Keith Van Horn...

Go Utes

Last time I looked I didn't see anyone that looks like Bogut, Doleac, Miller and Van Horn on the Ute roster.

Jimmy-ball is for real. I believe in Coach Boylen - when he's through we'll be most proud of the Utes and we'll forget about some guy named Majerus. Boylen is right in finding guys that bleed red and want to WIN with toughness, defense, running and great athleticism. He also backs up his beliefs by playing anyone anywhere and let's not forget that the UTES are the defending conference and tournament champions.

Thats co champs. The Cougars won a part of the Conference championship. The Cougars have won the last three and will win the crown again this year. Sorry uties but you can't even carry the Cougars gear this year as in years past.
The Cougars will have the automatic bid to the big dance and take care of business this year and win a couple games. GO COUGARS

This group is pretty impressive. However, they will never be able to compete with the Provo, Orem and Ogden recruits that BYU picked up.

You are right for once. The locals all have scout and Rivals stars. None of these guys have any stars***************************** Sorry but the big boys say the local boys are better this time! Again!

So why can't Utah say they are the defending conference champions but BYU can say they have won three straight championships?

If co-championships don't count, BYU hasn't won three straight. You can't have it both ways!

Cougars will win NCAA games... | 11:19 a.m. Nov. 12, 2009
Ha! yeah, right... and Danny Ainge has returned to the team in the form of J Tavenauri (SP) Good luck with that...

Sorry, but the Cougars continue to recruit players that are good in conference, but cannot match up against good teams on a national level in the tourney. Enjoy the good times in conference this year... Utah is back on the rise and will be competing again nationally soon... very soon

Utah's 4 recruits are rated an 88, 88, 87 and 76 by ESPN.com.

BYU's 2 recruits are rated an 88 and 75 by ESPN.com.

Guess somebody believes in Boylen.

That can't be! No way Utah's recruits are rated higher than BYU's... I mean, BYU gets the BEST players in Utah County, and we all know that Utah County has the best players IN THE WORLD!

Something doesn't compute...
