Throughout the season, the Utes have searched for answers to inconsistent play. Struggles on defense, rebounding and turnovers have all contributed to their 5-17 record. At the edge of a breakthrough against the Oregon Ducks, the same miscues ultimately led to a 79-68 loss. The difference against Oregon was that these mistakes were sporadic instead [...]
The one thing the Utah women’s basketball team was hoping to avoid against Oregon was a slow start like it had in its previous game. The Utes overcame their slow start to defeat USC, but they couldn’t repeat that success as they fell 72-67 to the Ducks. “We shot really, really poorly to start the [...]
For as long as he can remember, Brian Johnson has achieved goals at a young age. So perhaps it shouldn’t have come as a surprise when the Utes announced they would hire the 24-year-old as the new offensive coordinator. Johnson jumped to second grade when he started school at 5, signed a national letter of [...]
The number five. It’s how many fingers are on your hand. It’s how many rings are on the Olympic logo. But most importantly, it’s the combined ranking of the No. 1 Utah Utes and the No. 4 Georgia Gym Dogs. Needless to say, it’s all about to go down at the Huntsman Center tonight. And [...]
The Utes have tried everything to fix it, but they can’t quite put their collective finger on its cause: Two-thirds of the way into the season, the Utes still haven’t won a game away from the comfort of the Huntsman Center. It’s not just that the Utes lose on the road — it’s never easy [...]
After a lengthy search, the Utes have named quarterbacks coach Brian Johnson the team’s new offensive coordinator. The 24-year-old spent two seasons as the quarterbacks coach before being promoted following the departure of Norm Chow to Hawaii. “After spending the past month conducting a national search for an offensive coordinator, it became very apparent that [...]
At the midway point of conference play, the Pac-12 women’s basketball landscape is a jumbled mess. Ten teams, including Utah, are separated in the rankings by just three games. That means every game for the rest of the way will greatly impact conference tournament seeding. The next of those crucial matchups for Utah is tonight [...]
Utes get big names, and players, in the 2012 recruiting class. A month ago, the Utes were celebrating their overtime win against Georgia Tech in the Sun Bowl. On Wednesday, head coach Kyle Whittingham was all smiles again after the Utah football program received 28 commitments as part of National Signing Day in college football. [...]
He’s confronted more imposing struggles and overcome much bigger obstacles than playing point guard for the Utes. Growing up without a father, Storey helped his mother raise two sisters and keep them safe from the crime-ridden streets of Baltimore, one of America’s most dangerous cities. “I had to be the protector of them,” Storey said. [...]
With as much modesty as they can muster, the Red Rocks aren’t hiding their excitement about being No. 1 in the country. Despite Utah being a perennial powerhouse, it is the first time since 2009 that it has held the top spot. “Everybody’s so excited,” freshman Georgia Dabritz said. “We see it all over Facebook. [...]
