And Scott Mitchell will be in the house
September 15th, 2014 at 12:35 AM ^
Scott Mitchell? Good thing we have a Big House.
September 15th, 2014 at 10:28 AM ^
:(
That's not nice. True, but not nice.
September 15th, 2014 at 10:09 PM ^
eligibility left?
Do not want.
Or are you talking about your house, since you posted "the house" rather than "The House" or "The Big House"?
September 15th, 2014 at 12:34 AM ^
Reminds me of the all white uniforms that OSU wore for The Game last year.
September 15th, 2014 at 12:47 AM ^
White uniformz means poor tackling, right?
September 15th, 2014 at 2:07 AM ^
I sure hope the man that made white uniformz = poor tackling is back for the Utah game.
But the way he was limping around on the sideline on Saturday, I'm not sure he'll be available.
September 15th, 2014 at 9:12 AM ^
hopefully they mean that funchess plays.
September 15th, 2014 at 12:35 AM ^
We are so in their heads.
September 15th, 2014 at 12:42 AM ^
So is that your way too early coaching wish list?
September 15th, 2014 at 12:48 AM ^
David F'N Cutcliffe?
I wouldn't just refulse to renew, I'd burn the letter in effigy first and then put the ashes in an envelope to the AD.
Jeebus.

I skipped the obvious Miles, Shaw, Sumlin holy trinity that is very popular and went to the next group of more realistic ones. Scanning the Big 5 conferences there aren't many ones who (a) have done something and (b) are realistically available. Charlie Strong would have been very appealing if this was a year ago. Without going to college assistants or the NFL route (ooh Schiano!) it is hard to find anyone after Graham who fits points (a) and (b) and are really appealing. Dude who went to Wyoming might be interesting in a few years. I guess Briles is popular but with a 10 year contract at $4M+, doubt he is going anywhere.
D.C. is actually someone I see Brandon being more interested than myself - he loves Duke. Can't you hear the "They do it right" mantra already?
I say all this with the reality that either Harbaugh is like a 0.5% chance.
If we knock off MSU in EL or look like caged animals who lose by 3-4, I'll revoke the list immediately and bring out my pom poms.

Snyder
September 15th, 2014 at 8:27 AM ^
Bronco Mendenhall should get more respect. Dude has been solid for almost 5 years now.
September 15th, 2014 at 8:47 AM ^
He's been a western guy his whole life except for a single season at Louisiana Tech. His career makes perfect sense for BYU, or if Colorado decided to turn over their HC position again.
September 15th, 2014 at 11:50 AM ^
Dude, this is a thread about Uniformz, not Coachez. Save that for the rest of the threads please. I just want to read about Utah's Wimbledon all-whites.
September 15th, 2014 at 9:06 AM ^
I am extremely tempted to neg you on sight for as long as you have that stupid signature.
September 15th, 2014 at 12:36 AM ^
Glad to see they used that bye week wisely.
September 15th, 2014 at 12:38 AM ^
Fontes with that Cosby Sweater. Gotta love it.
September 15th, 2014 at 1:44 AM ^
I saw the Lions wearing their WCF patches, spaced out for a second, and thought to myself, (1) Wayne Fontes died??? and (2) Wayne Fontes dying warrants a uniform patch???
September 15th, 2014 at 7:11 AM ^
That's ok- I saw it and thought "women and children first"
September 15th, 2014 at 7:14 AM ^
Name a Lions coach since Wayne Fontes who has lasted a full season with a better record.
September 15th, 2014 at 6:12 PM ^
Gary Moeller.
EDIT: Shit, thought he got a full season.
September 15th, 2014 at 5:59 PM ^
If it were Wayne, would be C W F
(Cocaine Wayne)
September 15th, 2014 at 9:30 AM ^
that is not a cat sweater?
September 15th, 2014 at 6:24 AM ^
I think Scott ended up eating Cocaine Wayne.
September 15th, 2014 at 9:30 AM ^
366 freaking pounds!
September 15th, 2014 at 9:33 AM ^
My, how things changed.
September 15th, 2014 at 1:02 AM ^
So to me, that uniform is pretty "whatever." No love/hate for it, it just is what it is.
I wonder if Utah fans see it and scream "UNIFORMZZZZ!!!!" like we do at times.
September 15th, 2014 at 2:03 AM ^
I can speak to Utah fans' feelings on the all-white uniforms (I started teaching at the University of Utah this semester, so I have been able to observe Utah's fanbase up close on almost a daily basis):
I am sad to report that when Utah fans see these special, all-white uniforms, they do not scream "UNIFORMZZZ!!!" Instead, they view the special, all-white uniforms as a reflection of team morale. And as of this past week, that morale is very, very high among the fans.
I am given to understand (by sources I personally trust and know to have inside access) that Utah's football team is most excited to return to the Big House: that they remember their last visit, that they enjoyed that outing, and can't wait to pay us another visit.
I was sure hoping that Ray Taylor and Jarrod Wilson would be available for this game. I think the D needs them more than the O needs Funchess. But after none of them dressed for Miami (NTM), and after seeing Funchess hobbling around on the sidelines, I'm not very optimistic about their return for this one.
September 15th, 2014 at 3:04 AM ^
Tradition is fun but, all tradition had to start somewhere. I never understand the hate for the special uniforms. Imagine 100 years ago if everyone got mad when football switched to jerseys instead of sweaters or the first time we touched the banner coming out for a game, if the fans had said we need to pet Fritz Crisler cat before every game.... imagine how hard it would be recruiting if we had to rub a cats corpse before every game!
September 15th, 2014 at 8:49 AM ^
If everyone does it and it changes every time, it's not a tradition.
September 15th, 2014 at 10:42 AM ^
in 10 years that constantly changing uniforms for big games became its own tradition?
September 15th, 2014 at 11:48 AM ^
What if every team had a banner they ran out underneath?
September 15th, 2014 at 1:14 PM ^
Then it would be "College Football" tradition and not a "Michigan" tradition. Your first comment kind of implied that anything that isn't our tradtion cant be called a tradition, which is illogical.
September 15th, 2014 at 1:08 AM ^
Our defense, and our only defense, should wear all white, too, to confuse the shit out of them.
September 15th, 2014 at 11:42 AM ^
And obviously Utah helmets as well
September 15th, 2014 at 1:17 AM ^
not bad.
September 15th, 2014 at 1:24 AM ^
Thanks for posting this Saturday's date in your thread title. I was confused about which this Saturday that we're playing Utah you were talking about until I saw that.
September 15th, 2014 at 6:28 AM ^
Being a Dick is easy. Almost as easy as being a douche (see Mark Dantonio).
September 15th, 2014 at 10:00 AM ^
You think it's easy being a douche like Dantonio!?!
You can't handle being that douche! Son, we live in a world that has steroid-shrunken balls. And those balls have to be guarded by men with clear gels and special creams. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Manballsblue? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Denard's neck and you curse Narduzzi. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Bulloch's bowl suspension, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at couch fires, you want me on those balls. You need me on those balls.
We use words like "acurate", "Staee", "whereas" ...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the fragrance of the very douchedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a needle and "audit" a class. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!
September 15th, 2014 at 10:12 AM ^
you want me on those balls. You need me on those balls.
TWSS
Great work EveryoneMurders!
September 15th, 2014 at 11:48 AM ^
I liked "under the very fragrance of the douchedom I provide"
September 15th, 2014 at 9:42 AM ^
It actually was a very informative thread title. I could of done without the sept.20, but other than that. Thanks for your opinion. Jerk.
September 15th, 2014 at 2:38 AM ^
To be completely honest, I have no idea what Utah's normal away uniforms look like.
