Incoming Recruits All on Campus for Summer Classes
Summer classes have resumed at the university, and all of coach Jim Boylen's incoming recruits arrived on campus last week in time to get going on them yesterday.

Guards Jace Tavita, Jordan Cyphers and Chris Hines joined forward Josh Sharp and center Jason Washburn all are present and accounted for, according to director of basketball operations Jonathan Dykema, and they're all starting to get acclimated into college life and acquainted with their new teammates -- except for guard Tyler Kepkay and forward Kim Tillie, who are away playing for their respective international teams.

Coaches are not allowed to supervise workouts with their players during the summer, but the players are allowed strength and conditioning workouts and pick-up games on their own. Meanwhile, the Utes are preparing to release their schedule for next season -- one Boylen is describing as the best in school history. That should happen in the next couple of days, so get ready.

I'm loving this scheduling attitude. It's great to see good teams come to town. Way to go, coach!

Mike lives!

Goodness knows you deserve a summer break from Bloging (which has to be a bit of daily drag) but, on the other hand I want you to know that you do have your core of "geek fans" that click on your Blog every day hoping for a "pellet"... Kind of like a pigeon in a BF Skinner experiment.

Gee, guys ... it's nice to hear you missed me -- or at least, my effort on keeping you updated on the Utes. Thanks. I'll keep plugging away, although tdl is right, the summertime schedule is going to be a fair bit lighter than during the season.
Mike
