Bring on Phil Knight U.! (fka the Oregon Ducks)

McAfee is a toxic guy. I don’t like his show, and don’t watch it. Didn’t like him prior to his elevation to ESPN.

Then again, I find most of the alleged sports shows on the networks to be basically trash. Just a lot of noise and very little useful content.

And they wonder why there is a death spiral in play here.

I have to admit it’s pretty funny to watch the Zoobs collectively grasp their pearls over the (gasp) foul language. :joy:

I don’t see this posted above. Sorry if I’m duplicating anything.

I’m no Zoob. Uttimate and Greg aren’t either. I thought it was an embarrassment. You be you, but it’s OK to call out crass behavior when it happens.

Wasn’t meaning to imply anyone here.

I happened to glance at Cougarboard and their entire first three pages were posts about “classless Utes” because of McAfee’s show.

Wife beater chic isn’t something I admire, either.

I’ve been a trash talker for a very long time; and there are times when I will break out in a swear fest that would make a sailor or longshoreman blush (and it has happened more as I have aged). That said, what I heard today from the crowd at that show was uncalled for low-class trash.

There are plenty of ways to trash talk the East Provo Ecclesiastical Academy that are far better and smack them around harder than swearing. Signs that say “Social Security is their NIL Sponsor”, or a picture of a trashed minivan with “This is how BYU NIL’s” would be funnier. Even posting the overall record with a ‘Nuff said” over it.

Even chanting “Never Rated” when they got brought up would’ve been better.

Unfortunately that is not where they went. Opportunity lost.

I’d argue having no class, no respect, and no integrity is en vogue these days.

I may get flamed here, but I hate that Gameday is in SLC and The Pat McAfee show was broadcasted from campus. It’s a total distraction, and apparently some of the fans have given the overall fan base a black eye with their classless behavior

I actively try to avoid anything involving McAfee, but was curious how far out of bounds Utah fan’s behavior was today. So I googled “vulgar chant McAfee show”. There are articles for each of the past four weeks about students chanting “F*ck [rival school]” and ESPN not being able to bleep it out.

Classless? Maybe. Unique to Utah? Nah.

with all the cost cutting ESPN did, why did they decide to sign Aaron Rodgers puppet McAfee? All these shock jock sports shows are awful IMO (Cowherd, Jim Rome, Stephen A. Smith)

I get it, college kids are going to cuss, but they could have classed it up a bit. Perhaps " Go fornicate yourselves"

I’ve only watched Pat McAfee once before, briefly, I don’t really know who he is or where he came from, but my two twin 8 year old grandchildren appear to have more brains. How the hell did this guy get this gig, how does he keep it?

Believe me, I’m far from a pollyanna or prude, but I agree with 330ute, Gameday has morphed to the point where it takes away, taints the game it is associated with. Everything has an expiration date.

Was it last year that Oregon fans chanted f*ck the Mormons! That’s deep, profound, classy.

As evidenced by most of my post, I too am the furthest thing from a Pollyanna or a prude, but I believe in karma, so my plea to all of you chanting drunkards is to tone it down. Cheer your frickin hearts out, but keep it classy.
