SALT LAKE CITY — Day six of spring football for the Utes and the offense shined highlighted by a couple of long QB/WR hookups.
The Utah coaches have spoken all spring about how Travis Wilson and also Adam Schulz have looked really good and in command of the offense.
It is apparently not too different to what they did last year but the players have really taken to what Coaches Dennis Erickson and Brian Johnson want to do.
Travis Wilson is the leader but all three quarterbacks have had good moments. Wilson's 75-yard bomb to Dres Anderson was great to see as well as Brandon Cox's deep rainbow throw to Brian Allen.
Running backs have also been very impressive thus far. Lucky Radley has a spring in his step and is in on many reps with the ones while Kelvin York is hurting. Karl "The Truth" Williams has also been impressive; the guy just will not be tackled.
Wide receivers continue to drop balls they should catch, but the two deep shots today must have been a sight that all Utah coaches loved to see.
It appears that one of the greatest strength on this team might be the offensive line. They are big and physical and you can tell listening to Head Coach Whittingham that he really likes that position group.
Kalani Sitake was great after practice and a great interview. He spoke about the fact that he is enjoying how explosive the offense looks. He loves watching the offense get better and admits "it's easier to coach when the offense scores points."
On a side note, it was great to see a big group of fans enjoying the great weather and practice today. We saw players signing autographs and interacting with some fans after.
