Gordon Monson: 'Utah football is top drawer, and everybody knows it.'
Fans pose for photos before the Rose Bowl NCAA college football game between Utah and Ohio State Saturday, Jan. 1, 2022, in Pasadena, Calif.A year ago, I said they did, at least that it was important for them to do so. There was work left to get done, a program reputation yet to build, beyond all the fine and fun things that come to the team, the players, the coaches, the fans alongside the winning.
What’s happening in the years ahead is what should have happened years ago, but the slugs who control such matters — and the money that is divided among them — are about as glacial as any group anywhere. This is an issue that’s been discussed thousands of times, in this column space, in other column spaces, on talk shows, around your dining room table. The proper answer is almost here.
So Utah’s football quest is far from over. There’s work still to do. The program has not arrived. But much of the heavy lifting has already been done. Its chances to conquer the college game are smiling at the Utes now, if they continue on their upward path. Bottom line here is this: Utah no longer has to play to legitimize its entire program. There’s some fluidity to everything, but its credibility is not up for debate with every outcome. It has already ascended that hill. Now, it wants to simply enjoy the view, and look and work for another peak to mount.
