E<\/span>ntering the student section of the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum, fans find a staple of Utah State University Men\u2019s Basketball home games. Filled with dirt on the other team and cheers for the Aggies, the Bull Sheet is a satirical newsletter that encompasses the spirit of USU\u2019s HURD. <\/span><\/p>\n

A long-running tradition that has had several teams of volunteers composing its editions, the current \u201cAnonymous Writers\u201d of the Bull Sheet allowed The Utah Statesman to interview one of its authors. The author has been provided anonymity to protect their ability to continue creating their sometimes controversial content and home court advantage. The Statesman has independently verified their identity as an author of the Bull Sheet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Even though it is run by Aggie fans and students, the Bull Sheet is unaffiliated with the university or the HURD. The author shared it was intentionally not professional but is instead for fun. The author began writing the Bull Sheet because of their love for Aggie basketball, and they have enjoyed the role.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a big basketball fan, believe it or not, and I love the Mountain West basketball \u2014 the conference,\u201d the author said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They said this passion makes them a better writer. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI watch a lot of games, and I read a lot about these games, and I interact with a lot of other fans, and they tell interesting things,\u201d the author said. \u201cI write a lot about the basketball side of things. Obviously there are some times where I do talk about their personality and personal life, but it\u2019s a lot about basketball and what\u2019s happening on the court.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

When it comes to writing the sheet, they say it takes about five to seven hours to curate. They\u2019ve also said they had a few standouts in their tenure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m pretty proud of Boise because, as we all know, we all don\u2019t like Boise,\u201d the author said.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They added that Boise\u2019s proximity often allows people to have friends who attend and even USU players could be former teammates with their Bronco opponents. In addition, they said they were proud of the Wyoming Bull Sheet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI really liked calling head coach Sundance Wicks \u2018the high school coach who looked like he would give you Kendrick Lamar lyrics to dissect in class\u2019 or something like that,\u201d the author said. \u201cI do really respect coach Sundance Wicks. He\u2019s a really great guy, and I hope that he\u2019s successful, but it is just a little funny.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

The author said the next paper they are excited to write is for the game against New Mexico.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m personally really licking my chops at New Mexico,\u201d the author said. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of stuff about there.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

The author shared how they determine what goes into the sheets. They said there are lines they will not cross. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t want to be in the news \u2014 or the university in the news \u2014 for the wrong reasons,\u201d the author said. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of stuff that we\u2019ve written that we can\u2019t use because it\u2019s too dark. We want it to be fun, creative and hilarious.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Statesman then asked the author to break down USU\u2019s players and create a \u201cPro-USU Bull Sheet.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor Mason, he embodies the Utah State kind of player where he\u2019s from Cache Valley, and he works hard, and just every single play does the small things right,\u201d the author said. \u201cIt\u2019s so fun to watch him play and succeed for Utah State.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Ian Martinez was next on the list.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think we\u2019ve seen a more athletic person at Utah State University than Ian Martinez,\u201d the author said. \u201cHe has done things that I didn\u2019t think the human body was possible of doing. I mean, we love him. It\u2019s so fun to watch him take over games.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Isaac \u201cFish\u201d Johnson then got a second in the spotlight.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe love Fish. He\u2019s so fun,\u201d the author said. \u201cI mean, he\u2019s come here, and he\u2019s found a home. I mean, he was the deciding reason why we beat TCU in March Madness to give us our first NCAA Tournament win in over 20 years. And so he\u2019s going down in Aggie history for that.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

The author then sang the praises of Karson Templin. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cKarson Templin is the greatest player ever. He\u2019s a future All-American,\u201d the author said. \u201cA lot of people might not remember Justin Bean. He\u2019s Justin Bean if he had 20 pounds of more muscle. His stat lines from this year \u2014 they don\u2019t look super impressive in a vacuum, but if you watch the game, you realize he\u2019s always there. He\u2019s always helping. He\u2019s always doing everything.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

USU\u2019s true freshman Jordy Barnes also got a moment to shine.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJordy Barnes is such an incredible story,\u201d the author said. \u201cIn the state of Utah, he has done amazing things. I cannot wait to see him grow. And he\u2019s also really crafty.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, the author spoke on Dexter Akanno.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s also really fun to watch Dexter Akanno,\u201d the author said. \u201cJust for him to be here and just be a blur on the field and still be humble and so passionate. It makes me so grateful that he\u2019s in a Utah State uniform.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

The author shared one of their favorite aspects of writing for the paper. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOne of my favorite things about this is I have a lot of thoughts and a lot of opinions, and I really get to sit down and write it out and broadcast my thoughts and my opinions to a ton of people,\u201d the author said. \u201cI\u2019m not saying that my opinions are better, but it is also fun just to hear that a lot of people care.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kolton Freeman, a member of the HURD committee, shared what he loved about the Bull Sheet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly, the Bull Sheet is kind of just like a representation of what we\u2019re about as a student section,\u201d Freeman said. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of a fun way that we can do a little bit of research on other teams and make each game more personal. It gives us ideas on what we can cheer on and what we can do. I think it\u2019s something creative that is a tradition at this point. It\u2019s been going on for years, like over 10 years, and it\u2019s just something that sets us apart from the rest.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n

Jaylen Porras, another HURD committee member, added to Freeman\u2019s statement. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Bull Sheet is something that students look forward to every single game, something exciting, and it\u2019s something super unique that no one else does in the country, and it\u2019s very much so a bragging right that we have earned and has given us credibility,\u201d Porras said.<\/span><\/p>\n

As much as the “Anonymous Writers of the Bull Sheet” love their work and its impact, they recognize that it is a part of a much bigger machine that creates Spectrum Magic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Bull Sheet is obviously one part of it, but I would say that the HURD and the Spectrum as a whole is special,\u201d the author said. \u201cThe reason why we win isn’t because of the Bull Sheet. It’s not because of any one person. It’s because there are thousands of students who, every single night, no matter who they play, pour in and care. It is a team effort.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The author shared why USU is special.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou don’t see this at other universities. Cache Valley and Utah State loves basketball and the Spectrum,\u201d the author said. \u201cSpectrum Magic is real, as corny as it seems, as stupid as it sounds. It is real.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They also shared how students can help make Spectrum Magic.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf everybody is loud and everybody is jumping and everybody is bought in all the way, it’s almost impossible to lose in the Spectrum,\u201d the author said. \u201cIt’s such a dominant atmosphere. I’ve seen teams just give up and quit because of the Spectrum.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They shared some last advice for students who love Aggie basketball.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIf you just have an idea, a stupid idea, that you think would be fun, just do it,\u201d the author said. \u201cThe HURD is known for its creativity and freshness. It takes everyone to keep on and improve.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
