IN THE ZONE PODCAST: UA Next Camp, Spring Ball and the Mailbag
Summary
Utah lacks promotion of accomplishments; BYU media office pre-writes puff pieces that local outlets publish without vetting.
Interesting comments about the lack of interest in promoting Utah stories... like having two first‑round offensive line draft picks. Another missed opportunity is the viral clip of Semi Taulanga trucking his way to the end zone. If that had been a BYU player... the coog media office would have had it playing on a loop in Times Square and calling it a cultural moment. And on another point… I’m convinced that a lot of the local puff pieces about ‘special’ BYU players are basically pre‑written by the BYU media office and handed off to the complicit outlets. Many in the local media are simply tired... lazy... and/or happy to let the Cougar PR shop do their work for them. If BYU provides the copy... they’ll publish it...no questions asked.
