Utes Working Out Again as Assistant Search Continues
The Utes were practicing together for the first time since the season ended today, in the first of what coach Jim Boylen hopes will be four team workouts before a moratorium on such sessions begins next week.
And Boylen said he expects that will help him get over his team's poor stretch run during the regular season, a shortcoming on which he has been fixating since it happened.
"I need to get past it," he said.
Nothing about the future has changed for the Utes since the season ended, though. Boylen said his post-season one-on-one interview sessions with his players went well, and he still expects all of his underclassmen to return next season.
He still needs to hire two assistant coaches, though, something he expects to complete by the end of the month. He has compiled various lists of possible candidates, but still is debating which will be the best fit.
"The perception of people" in the industry "is that we're going to get this thing done," he said. "And we have gotten it done, but we're going to get it done better. People are excited about coming here, which is what I want."

Boylen needs a translator. What in the world is he talking about? What is the "thing" he is going to get done? Who in the heck are the "people in the industry"? What is the industry?
That's easy. The thing is turning around a broken program. The industry is college basketball.
"broken program" is a program that goes from winning its conference every year to finishing under .500 (that's more losses than wins).
"college basketball" is the game that Boylen coaches.
Hope that helps. Terminology can be confusing for a rookie. Feel free to ask anytime.
The real issue is that Boylen could also choose to use English as a primary language. That would be a very good place to begin.
Sorry Boylen can't be as robotic as Rose and Mendenhall.
p.s. the word industry was inserted by the author, not Boylen.
