Kyle Whittingham says it's...
Utah close to announcing new offensive coordinator
Finally, after over a month of speculation, it appears we're close to the end of the wait. The Utes are expected to announce the hiring of a new offensive coordinator this week and a decision might even come down in the next 24 or 48 hours. Since Norm Chow left in December to take the Hawaii job,...
No one likes the waiting game.
Tom Petty hated it. I hate it. You hate it. But what're you going to do about it? It's now been over a month since Norm Chow officially became Hawaii's next football coach and, outside hearing Gary Crowton's name linked to the job, nothing of note has transpired since. We've gone over how...
Four weeks later, still no offensive coordinator
Utah's search to replace Norm Chow continues to be painfully slow. Outside last week's news that Gary Crowton interviewed for the job, there has been a blackout of information. No hint of any other candidate - or even an end date to this decision. What we do know is that the potential (read...

Wanted: An offensive coordinator to run Pac-12 offense
Tomorrow will mark three weeks since Norm Chow said ciao to Utah and left for the sunny beaches of Hawaii. Since his unofficial departure, which I guess is now official with the Sun Bowl over, there has been an uneasy silence from the coaching world on who could replace him. No one, it seems, has...

The University of Utah released this statement today concerning the Drum and Feather: "The University of Utah and its athletics department periodically review the use of the circle and feather logo out of sensitivity for native tribes across the country as well as Utah fans. At this time, the...
Dave Schramm could be Fresno State's next OC
Utah's offense is potentially losing another coach, as Dave Schramm, who was Utah's OC for part of the '09 season and currently their running back's coach, has been offered, and apparently has accepted, the job.
