Utes looking for another winner
I had a story in today on Brian Johnson and how he could pass Alex Smith for the most wins by a starting quarterback. That might lead to some questions, such as who is Utah's next great quarterback? Corbin Louks will be in the running, as will Griffin Robles, who is on a mission but is expected to return this summer.
Another guy the Utes are looking at, but haven't offered, is Doak Raulston, a 6-2, 180-pound quarterback at All Saints' Episcopal in Fort Worth, Texas. Raulston, who is 16-3 as a starter, is drawing interest from several large schools including Tennessee and Purdue, his coach, Aaron Beck said.
Beck said Utah assistant Aaron Alford paid Raulston a visit last Friday and has been keeping tabs on him. Raulston is visiting Louisiana Tech this weekend.
"He's No. 2 on a lot of teams' boards," Beck said. "He is very, very interested in Utah. He loves the coaches. I know I am biased, but I think he'd be a good one."
Beck said Raulston visited Utah during the summer and participated in a camp as well as visiting New Mexico, CSU and Kansas.
TCU is keeping tabs on Raulston too, but already has a commitment from Casey Pachall from Brownwood High in Texas.
So why haven't the Utes offered? They're still looking and evaluating is what Beck has been told. One guy they are keeping tabs on is Keith Price, a 6-1, 176-pound quarterback at St. John Bosco in Bellflower, Calif. He has committed to Washington after giving the Utes a hard look, but word on the street is he might be wavering and Utah could be back in the mix.
