    He is our home teacher, or was until recently. That is qualification enough, since I am a gentile.

    Though not as relevant, he is dean of the business school and has done a terrific job getting its new facilities built and its reputation and faculty and programs improved.

    He used to lurk on Utefans and posted there once or twice. I cant remember his moniker. He may lurk here. In fact, he may be mUUser, tooting his own horn. Wouldnt put it past him. (tic)

    Taylor Randall is awesome, easily one of the best professors I ever had and from everything I've heard he's been very well received as dean of the DESB.

    From Athlon's ranking of top college football-basketball coaching duos:

    *****


    15. Utah

    Football: Kyle Whittingham
    Basketball: Larry Krystkowiak

    After a relatively rough transition from the Mountain West to the Pac-12, the Utah football program has averaged 8.8 wins over the last four seasons and is 19–17 in league play over that stretch under Whittingham (above, right). Krystkowiak has done a terrific job rebuilding the Utah basketball program. In his last three full seasons, the Utes are 13–5, 13–5 and 11–7 in the Pac-12.

    Oddly enough, they rank UCLA 14th because of Chip Kelly's hiring. Seems dumb to do that before Chip has coached a single game at UCLA.

    “True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”
