Underwood has to prove it on the field ...

Simply put, Underwood has to prove it on the field. He had an opportunity to show us improvement in the spring game and he blew it. Carr looked way more advanced than him.

We'll really see what he's capable of in the Oklahoma game. He has a new OC with a run heavy emphasis and a full time QB coach now. Underwood also has a full season's worth of play under his belt. The time for excuses is waning.

This team is going to have eight home game plus one of the most difficult schedules in the country. Underwood is going to have a strong offensive line in front of him and plenty of weapons around him at RB, WR and perhaps to a lesser extent at TE. But if we continue to see the very mixed decision making, the happy feet and the inaccurate passing, then yeah, he potentially joins the five-star QB recruit bust category.

    - Looks like Smith was a Whitt guy, well at least a large portion. Kyle Whittingham was officially named head football coach at the University of Utah on December 8, 2004, succeeding Urban Meyer.* - By TBW August 10, 2026 at 09:58:37 AM
      - Whittingham was Utah’s DC when Smith played there. Smith went 1/1 in the 2005 draft. Whittingham’s first QB as a HC was Brian Johnson - By brick August 10, 2026 at 10:16:06 AM
