Note to Kyle Whittingham

Ludwig has to go. In 2004, no one could even remotely stop the U of U offense. Only three years later, the U of U is shut out by UNLV. UNLV!!!!! Let's look at the season in whole. Oregon St.- 7 pts. Air Force- 12 pts. UCLA- 44 pts. UNLV- 0. So which one is the abberation? Utah's defense was remarkably stout against UNLV given what the offense did. But today, I am embarrassed to be a Ute fan. When BYU blows out UNLV by four touchdowns, we'll understand just how lame Ludwig is.

My uncle, a devout Ducks fan, informed me that the best thing that ever happened to his team, was Kyle's ill-considered hiring of Ludwig as offensive coordinator. As a former collegiate athlete, I worried that he might be right, but still hoped for the best. I've concluded that the Utes have managed to hold their own, not based upon Ludwig's skill, but by their own juevos. The UNLV confirmed that.

To Andy Ludwig. It was a good run. However, offensive coordinator doesn't seem to be your thing. When you take a team from blowing away teams in BCS games to getting shut out by UNLV, perhaps it's time to reconsider your career choices. There are many career choices out there. I recommend you explore those options.
