How a BYU Fan Becomes a Ute

I grew up a BYU fan, but went to the U, and now have two sons who've gone to the U, and, well. . .it's more fun cheering for a winning team, but I still like to see BYU do well. In fact, I think Utah should advocate for BYU to get into the Pac-12, probably with Boise to even things out.

My journey went like this:

1. I hate the Utes. Want them to die. (childhood)

2. Grudging respect. (teenager)

3. Want them to win when not playing BYU. (student at the U)

4. Cheering them on in a big way. (2004, 2008)

5. Utes first, BYU second. (Pac-12 period on, with a boost when my son got a presidential scholarship at the U)

Hold on, so ReyOso "grudgingly respected the utes" in the 90's? That makes no sense. I think he's a liar. (Ragnar Danneskjold, Dec 3, 2019 at 6:25pm)
