Coach Hoping to Have Tillie Back Against TCU
Coach Jim Boylen said he expects injured forward Kim Tillie to play again when the Utes play host to TCU at the Huntsman Center on Saturday -- which would be a huge help to their depleted frontcourt.
Speaking on his weekly radio show, Boylen also said that although he was wary of saying anything to reporters after the game, he thought that two of the five fouls that put center Luke Nevill on the bench for almost all of overtime of the 77-67 loss at San Diego State last night "didn't have to be called."
Without a doubt, losing Nevill only 20 seconds into overtime really hurt the Utes by forcing them to play a small lineup, which the Lobos outscored 17-7 in the extra period. Nevill had been pretty good in the second half, after not scoring in the first.
Boylen also repeatedly emphasized that he hopes fans understand that rebuilding the program will take some time. "We are getting there," he said. "We are getting better."
