Good story Rock. I really like Boylen. We need to get more fans out to the game.

Nice article. People really don't appreciate what a great basketball tradition the U of U has. In every measurable way, total wins, All-Americans, NCAA invites and wins, seasons finished in the rankings, Utah is in the top 20, maybe top 10, nationally. And Utah's no Johnny-come-lately like, for example, Arizona. Utah has been building a winning basketball tradition since at least the 1940's. Go Utes! Go Boylen!

Boylen is doing a great job! The Utes are going to be the force in the conference and a national program again after a couple of years off. It is nice to see the Utes scheduling teams that we want to see. Cal, Oregon, and Gonzaga at home next year will help a ton with the attendence. I don't like all the afternoon games. Night games are better, and I think we will get better attendence.
Go Utes!

I remember back during the Majerus years beating Air Force was the standard; nothing to get excited about. Coach Boylen has been doing an amazing job in just a short period of time. Here's to the return of those Utah teams.

GO UTES!!!

Thankful to be at Utah? Does that mean he thinks it was a higher power that lead him there and a higher power that helped the Utes win? HA! Just kidding. This guy may turn out to be a great coach and if so, will probably leave Utah after a few seasons. I hope not. (On the leaving part.)

He only has 2 seniors on the team and neither start he is starting 5 Juniors and winning. Just think about next year!!!!
Go UTES
