And Holiday hasn’t been a very good recruiter (not that it would be easy to recruit WR to Utah anyway). Rumors that not all was well in the WR room.

The Scalley stuff is being brought up because his son is pulling the race card

That’s about it

Ute fans, why did Whit let Guy Holiday go? And the Scalley story getting thrown around. What’s up here?

I think it’s because their WR’s keep transferring out & not developing

They don’t develop mostly because they try not to throw it. They’re mostly just edge blockers.

Yep. Don't understand how they are able to get good receivers to come play there

They don’t throw the ball & the QB situation was crap last year.

It’s a combination of factors they’re TE were good and targeted more

Do all the good ones still switch to defense?

In today's environment, his son has a valid complaint.

The idea that Whit fired Holliday b/c he’s black is ridiculous and embarrassing

That is not what his son was saying

This is the point I was trying to make. Not that claiming he was fired because

I’m not sure I agree with that statement

Sounds like the same thing without the specifics so you can change calling

Players, past, current and future, can decide for themselves how they feel

I don't think it was due to his race either, but saying what Scalley admits to

I was only referring to your last paragraph.

I disagree, completely. And it doesn’t help solve actual problems involving

So are you saying Scalley never used racist terms or that he shouldn’t have kept

Isleofavalon

2/28/21 8:26pm

Just saying the racism card being played when racism isn’t the problem doesn’t

Tuiakismother

2/28/21 8:34pm

The reality is he didn’t use the term but forwarded the message with the term

It is not a valid complaint, it's the environment that is invalid.

I’d bet not all was well in the WR room due more to the OC and QB play. And demands of the HC on the OC.

Could have waited 1 more day. Probably not official so they’re good;)

Stay away from Fesi. Don't think he'd go there anyway though.

Seems like a really strange time for a coach to get fired.

2/28/21 5:22pm

Will be interesting to hear a reason. But I doubt Whit talks about it directly.

Why should he, if he decided that he wasn’t getting the job done to his

Remember when Y fans and Cougarboard had a total meltdown when he left?

With the son deleting the tweets and no word from the Yew, did Whit keep him?

With no knowledge of the situation I would imagine

This does seem logical to me. But I'm sure Utah media saw it too. You'd think it

Well, his son's newest tweet resolves my question. Sorry i can't link it.
