Didn't someone say that the Ute players are young, but very talented?
Admittedly, I watched the game on the slingbox (which was connected by VGA cable to my DLP ![]() But besides Neville, I would have a hard time saying that Utah has any players. I look at that team, and I am not surprised at their record. The players look very, very average. |

That was the first I've seen them play, but based on what I saw, I don't think they have much potential in the near term. It was a little surreal to be playing Utah and dominating them on the boards--with not a great rebounding team to boot. |

I really like their 6'6 Freshman Point Guard Curtis Eatmon but Giac hardly plays him.

Frank Layden was right when he commented when Giac was hired that he would be in way over his head as coach of Utah.

Foster is a hell of a talent and he is wasting him away on the bench. Eatmon is talented and he is wasting him away on the bench.
He continues to play terrible players like LB and Ricky Johns. Utah's biggest problem is defense, and defense is not about talent. Defense is all about coaching, and Giac is deficient. |

athleticism counts for something on defense. if guys are beating you off the dribble, goodbye defense, hello o-rebounds and putbacks.

Those weren't the most athletic guys, but they were ball players. It was funny watching the Utes play offense. Just standing around, maybe the occasional cut or pick. It was just sad. |
