I have been to several games this year and just think you're awesome. I WILL be at the 1st and 2nd round of NCAA if in fact they end up here. To the Seniors - What a way to go out your Senior year! UNBELIEVABLE. Just keep playing the way you have been and the MWC Championship and deep NCAA run are assured -- Jim Munro

Go Utes!!! We wish we could be there to cheer you on in person. Maybe at the NCAA Tourney somewhere. Best of luck and most important beat BYU!!!! UTAH BY 5!!! -- Matt and DeAnn Simonic
Congrats! I knew you would be strong this year, but this is just great. I've enjoyed listening to your games over the internet and seeing a couple on DirectTv. I made every womens and mens home game last season, conference tournament included. Unfortunately, my girlfriend is ill and I was needed back in CA this year. I am looking forward to attending the U again next year. Best wishes in the conference and NCAA tourney. If you get a top four seed, I'll be there cheering you on. -- Eric Lopez
Both the men's and womn'ss basketball teams have done the University and the state proud. As you both go into the MWC tourny I wish you well. Don't get caught up in all the "hoop la" and remember why your there....To bring the championship home. Coach Elliot and Hunsaker certainly deserve coach of the year honors. Play like you want it and stay focused on what they tell you. Most of all good luck and thanks for a great year! -- Guy Crossley
I want to wish both men's and women's Ute basketball teams all the very best in the Mountain West Tournament. Through good times and in bad, all of us Ute fans are always behind you and supporting you every season. Good luck in Vegas and GO UTES!!!! -- Tyler Kimball
Congratulations ladies on an incredible season. It has been so much fun to check the various web sites on Mondays (ESPN, RPI, AP) and watch your meteoric rise through the rankings. Good luck at the tournament and dont take anyone for granted. I am really looking forward to your getting to host the 1st and 2nd rounds of the tournament at the Huntsman Center. Now go get em and bring home the Tournament Championship! -- Bruce Harmon
Give them Hell Utes! -- BJ Bedont
A 30+ win season is within reach!!! UNHEARD OF!! Set you goal and go for it. -- Stanley H. Reed
You represent our University well, so go down to Vegas and bring home the titles!!! You have been great to watch all year long, Thanks for your hard work! -- Jeremy Lewis
Good Luck, UTES - Not that you'll need it. I know for a fact that both teams are Final Four bound. It's not about talent, coaching, or match-ups - though the Utes have OBVIOUS advantages here. It's all about destiny. We WILL NOT be denied. Karma cannot be stopped. GO UTES!!!!!!! 2001 Final Four Bound!!!! -- Scott, Angela, and Jaden Everitt
Go get em!!! -- Don Moore
You have the unique opportunity to do something that no Utah women's team has ever done, go deep into the NCAA tournament. If you can lock up the Mountain West Conference tournament championship, along with your high RPI and national ranking, you could be seeded higher than any Ute team in history.
A top seed, as we've seen with the men's team, is critical to a deep run into the tournament. And, unlike past Ute women's squads, you've avoided the team's signature late season swoon.
You're poised to pull off the historic and rewrite the Utah record books. Go for it! We're all pulling for you. Play together. Play defense, and show the country that there really IS good women's basketball being played West of the Mississippi.
I'm looking forward to talking about the women's team in the same breath that we do the men's, producing future pros.
-- Steven R. Ford
I want to wish you all the best in Vegas. Congratulations to the Men on fighting back back through all of the adversity. Congratulations to the women on doing the unthinkable in going undefeated in conference play. Both teams are a great asset to a great university. Keep it going and we will see you both at the Big Dance. -- Blake Ferrin
Go Utes of all genders! You will ALWAYS look back on this week as one of your most enjoyable life experiences--- hope it will also be one of the most successful !! -- john e. jones
Good Lucks to both teams!!! -- Chau Nguyen
Best of luck. We will see you in Las Vegas cheering for a double Utah championship. -- Paul Mogren & Chris Mogren
Go Utes!! Thanks for all the great basketball you've given us over this season. We are ready for more!! Good luck in Vegas. We'll be there to cheer you on. -- Kimberli Jones
Best of Luck in the Mountain West Tournament. I wish that I could be there with you. Had a chance to go to the final four a couple of years ago and would love to do that experience again. Go UTES!! -- John Koegler
I can't attend this year in Las Vegas, but I will be cheering you on from my living room. Stay focused, have fun and be safe. Bring the title back to Salt Lake where it belongs. Best of luck to you all !! GO UTES !! -- Linda Ronne
The championship is ours....and Kevin Bradley is FINEEEEEE! MVP! -- Kevin Bradely's #1 fan
