Quoting the entire news story for reference:

2013/2014 - New Thrill Coaster - Rumor - (10/27/11) I’m told that Lagoon’s next coaster will be in the 200 foot tall range [~60 metres] and feature inversions, and is intended to take over the Top Eliminator location. Don’t look for it to open until 2013 or even 2014 at this point however.

Basically, it sounds very, very thin for me. Discounting the vague source (could be an overenthusiastic guy who have talked to a ride op for all we know), the only coasters in the 60-metre range to feature inversions are the Giant Inverted Boomerangs, the S&S 4Ds and the legendary Moonsault Scramble. Out of these three, only the first seems plausible enough for this small park in the middle of Utah.

Small park? The place is actually pretty big and has no competition for a looong way.

Is this plausible? Maybe, but it certainly can't be summarily dismissed because the park is an independent.
