Monday Morning Coffee: YO! Utah Raps

Start your work week off right with Monday Morning Coffee, where Fanhouse scours YouTube for the finest college football footage available. Either that or we give up after a couple minutes and just post the "I Like Turtles" kid.

In the wake of the Josh Jarboe farce debacle traveshamockery, one would expect that colleges would be comically wary of any, any association between their players and the dreaded rap music. But young men are young men, and here we have not just one, but several collegians on camera, on YouTube, rapping. This time, they're from--wait, what? Utah? Oh no.



Jarboe's coach said it was "a cultural thing" when Jarboe decided to lay down his unfortunate lyrics, and after seeing this, we are absolutely in agreement. "We're not in it for the money/we're not in it for the fame/we're just in it to win it/for the love of the game" is a rhyme that... well, that probably doesn' t get dropped in at least 47 of the 50 states in the Union. Culture, you know.

We're only treated to two verses from rap's next great outfit, Utes 2 Men*, sadly. We're sure, though, that their debut album will feature such songs as "Straight Outta Ogden," "My Keds," and an absolutely devastating a cappella rendition of "My Favorite Things."

*That's definitely not their real name, but it should be.
