Jason Scheer of Wildcat Authority joins the show to break down Arizona football’s 2026 outlook, including Noah Fifita, Brent Brennan, the Wildcats’ Big 12 ceiling and the November matchup with Utah. Then, 247Sports national recruiting editor Brandon Huffman joins for a deep dive into Utah football recruiting, regional battles, key targets and how the Utes are building under Morgan Scalley.

Post-spring Big 12 power rankings are here. We break down where Utah lands in the conference heading into the summer, why Texas Tech still sits at the top, and which teams could rise or fall by the time the season kicks off. Plus, thoughts on Houston, Oklahoma State, Arizona State and more in the league in 2026.

Utah football is entering a new era under Morgan Scalley, but the expectations remain familiar. On this episode of the Utah Blockcast, we’re joined by Dalton Wasserman, co-host of the Preferred Walk-On Podcast, to take a national look at Utah’s 2026 outlook, the state of the Big 12, and the program’s growing NFL Draft profile. The conversation starts with Utah’s place in the Big 12 under Scalley. Is this still a conference title contender, or does the transition make 2026 more of a prove-it year? We dive into Kevin McGiven’s offensive vision, what Devon Dampier needs to show to reach another level, why Wayshawn Parker could be one of the swing pieces of the season, and which defensive position group matters most for Utah maintaining its standard. Then, we zoom out to the Big 12 as a whole. With multiple programs all capable of talking themselves into contention, Dalton helps separate real contenders from offseason optimism in one of college football’s most volatile leagues.

On this episode, I take a look at the top of Utah basketball's 2027 recruiting board with five names that fans should know this cycle. Also, recapping Utah baseball's series win over rival BYU and what it means for the Utes with two weeks to go before the Big 12 Tournament.   

In this episode, I break down five questions for Utah Runnin' Utes men's basketball heading into the season: whether Noam Yaacov can truly run the show, where consistent shooting will come from, how this roster holds up defensively, what the frontcourt identity looks like, and how quickly the younger pieces can become reliable in a league that doesn’t wait for development. I also spend time on some of the ripple effects of Brendan Sorsby’s gambling situation. 

It was a historic weekend for Utah football, as the program saw two players selected in the first round for the first time in program history. Recapping that and the rest of draft weekend from a Utah football perspective. Then, turning the page. Who’s next? A way-too-early look at the 2027 NFL Draft class. 

Two first-round picks. One statement night. Utah made history at the 2026 NFL Draft as Spencer Fano and Caleb Lomu both went in the first round — the first time the program has ever done it. In this episode, we celebrate the accomplishment for both. Then talk through what each landing spot means, why Fano is ready to contribute immediately, how Lomu fits as a high-upside investment, and what this moment says about Utah’s offensive line development model moving forward.

Breaking down Utah basketball’s 'essentially complete' 2026–27 roster from top to bottom — going position by position to define roles, and what this team is actually trying to become under Alex Jensen. Plus, CBS Sports’ Shehan Jeyarajah joins the show to talk Utah football and the Big 12 outlook heading into 2026 — including national perception, conference hierarchy, and what it’ll take for Utah to stay in the title conversation under Morgan Scalley.

In this episode, I break down the addition of Noam Yaacov - a big time recruiting win for the Utes. Landing a true offensive engine in Yaacov this is a look into how the other pieces fit — and what Utah still needs with one or two roster spots left to fill.

We opened the mailbag… and Utah fans delivered. This episode hits everything — opening with burgers and pizza debates to music takes (album Mt. Rushmore, walkout songs, and whether game-day vibes are about to level up). Then we get into the real stuff. At 27:00, we shift to football, it’s a deep dive — QB room beyond Devon Dampier and Byrd Ficklin, breakout candidates, whether the Utes can finally produce a 1,000-yard receiver, Wayshawn Parker’s ceiling, DL concerns, return specialists, and how this new staff compares to the old one in recruiting, culture, and scheme. We wrap with basketball — portal insights, roster outlook, expectations under Alex Jensen, and what it’ll actually take to rebuild this thing in the Big 12. It’s a full-spectrum Utah mailbag — smart questions, honest answers, and a clear look at where things stand heading into a pivotal offseason.
