Why would Utah be interested in him after the last two years? Talk about a hard sell to the fanbase.

Pel makes sense. I could see Trent being interested, he does have a history of getting out while the getting is good(in this case it would be before the shite hits the fan), but how does any AD sell his last 2 years to fans?

Why wouldnt it be Trent? They don't have to be interested in him, it just says somebody wants it. He spent all those years out west at Nevada and Stanford too

Yea his interest. I don't know why Utah would be interested in any SEC West coach.

Sorry I misinterpreted. I agree with you. Both make a lot of sense.

TJ was an assistant at UTAH back in the 80s I think.

Yea I don't think Trent is damaged goods just because of the last two years and he could succeed here or at Utah but apparently the coach they just fired wasn't filling up the seats either and hiring Trent won't help with that in the short term.
