Utah Utes track: Hurdler has high hops, hopes

Good Luck Chelsea in your High Hops and High Hopes.

Back in timea singer by the name of Frank Sinatra,
had a song (which was one of his many hits) entitled
"High Hopes". It was a novelty type song and was sung with a small chorus of children.... A song about positive thoughts and actions...

This is a pretty amazing story since the UTES don't own a track. When the new football stadium was built, the ol' track was thrown out. Since that time, Chris Hill has done little to help promote this sport or even show financial support to even be competitive. Prior coach Mike Jones and the new coaching staff did everything but jump over the moon to keep the Utes program alive and kicking. Rumor has it a track is finally being built, some twenty years since the last track was thrown away. I guess it is okay to treat non-revenue sports poorly, until Title 9 laws catch up and you have to make things look right. Shame on Chris Hill and the Crimson Club. GO UTES!
