Readers share their thoughts with Gordon Monson on what it would be like if Utah, BYU and Utah State were to rise to the level of SEC powerhouses — and whether Utahns should even want that to happen.

Let me share with you a few fricks and fracks of what I received from a most recent column about whether Utah, BYU and Utah State could ever reach and match the football powers and pinnacles that are found in the SEC.He wrote the following, which I’ve edited a bit:

“The Utes have shown me that they have the tools to compete with the big boys. They would have cleaned FSU’s clock this year, along with probably the last five years. I marvel at what the Utes do with a bunch of 2- and 3-star recruits. Maybe BYU and Utah State can edge in that direction, too. Maybe all the schools here will haul in and further commit the required resources to make Utah a bastion of football, a place where the fans breathe it in and blow it out as one of the most meaningful aspects of existence.
