Utes kick off new era with successful start to camp

by JazzyUte on Mar 9, 2011 1:52 AM CST on Block U

Utah began its first official camp as a BCS member Tuesday and by all accounts, it went fairly well. You can bet that move to the Pac-12 dominated the discussion at practice and though Kyle Whittingham admitted the players were excited about the move, he's certainly not allowing it to become a...

Norm Chow and Tim Davis are officially in Utah and met with the media today to discuss the future of the Utes' offense. That hoodie looks pretty good on Norm, don't you think? Thanks to KSL for the video. You can view it after the jump... Video Courtesy of KSL.com

So, what's the deal with Norm Chow?

by JazzyUte on Jan 17, 2011 11:38 PM CST on Block U

Is he coming? Are we being played? Was this some cruel joke? Don't worry, I still feel confident. But, as it was with the news about the Pac-10 expanding, stuff like this takes time. Chow is still technically under contract with the Bruins and the whole situation is pretty messy at the moment. If...

Schramm & Roderick

by JazzyUte on Nov 4, 2009 1:47 PM CST on Block U

Shitty photoshopping FTW! Okay, so maybe this sounds like the name of a failed TV sitcom, but with the changes on offense, I think it's an important discussion point. Do you agree with the change? We talked about Whittingham's pulling Cain, but it seems this has gone a bit under the radar and it...

Utes to return to more true spread option under Schramm

by JazzyUte on Aug 10, 2009 12:14 AM CDT on Block U

Music to our ears? Not to say Andy Ludwig was a bad OC, he wasn't, but I can't help but feel Schramm is moving the program a bit further on the offensive side than Ludwig ever could - and that's without even coaching in a game. They're also working at a faster tempo than before, even though their...

Colorado's New Offense: Square Peg Meet Round Hole

The Dan Hawkins era at Colorado took yet another step towards "train wreck" with the departure of offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich for Oregon last month after spring practice. Knowing the importance of continuity, Hawkins promoted Eric Kiesau from receivers coach to offensive coordinator. Then...
