Fans Can Get Free Look at the Utes
The Utes plan to hold their first and only public "JimmyBall" scrimmage of the season at the Huntsman Center at 7 on Thursday night, and the event is free.
Coach Jim Boylen plans to have his players scrimmage for about half an hour -- technically, two 15-minute halves, with running clock and a 5-minute halftime -- after setting a game-like atmosphere with player introductions. Women's coach Elaine Elliott will address the crowd, too, though her team does not plan to scrimmage.
The scrimmage takes the place of a "Midnight Madness" type of event, and will be the only chance for fans to see the Utes before their exhibition opener against Grand Valley State on Nov. 8.
"We are trying to make everything as fan-friendly as possible," Boylen said.
The Utes noted in a release today that the scrimmage also will feature Rick Bouillon, the new public address announcer for the upcoming season.

The Sweater forgives your sin of omission.
