It's unfortunate that Williams went down. Even if Taylor would have gotten the job anyway, his presence may have challenged Williams and forced them both to be better. Tackling in spring time is a risky ordeal. Before the season even started last year the team lost several guys. However, I know that the team down south is not tackling at all in the spring, and maybe not in the fall either. They are scared of an injury or two hurting their "quest for perfection." The way I see it, that mentality is sorry. They are playing (or at least preparing) not to lose. Sure Utah's plan is a bit of a risk, but it tells me that they are playing to win. There is no doubt that they will be more physically prepared for the season then the team down south if things continue this way.
