Maybe Home Cookin' Is Getting Nevill Going
Maybe we know now why center Luke Nevill played so well against Missouri State last weekend.
His mom is here.
Nevill's mother is visiting from his native Australia, and a fleet of other friends and family are expected to join her within the next week -- including Nevill's dad, brother and two family friends -- and stay until at least late January.
One of those friends has kept in pretty regular contact with us here the past couple of years, and joked in an e-mail today that she has told Nevill "that he better play great, as I have paid $1,500 US to fly to see him. I will tell him at the end of the game if I got my money's worth."
Meanwhile, things are pretty slow today, with the Utes having canceled practice while coach Jim Boylen and his assistants are out recruiting.
Boylen, of course, went to Texas, while assistant Jeff Smith visited Michigan -- probably to watch signee Jason Washburn, among others -- and Marty Wilson went to California. Assistant Chris Jones stayed behind to hold down the fort and monitor film and weight-lifting sessions.
