Utes Expect Solid Challenge in Florida
Here's a quick look at the upcoming opponents for the Utes in the Glenn Wilkes Classic in Daytona Beach, Fla.
The Utes will play Mississippi on Friday night, and the Rebels are rebuilding the frontcourt but coping with injuries, notably to swingman Eniel Polynice.
Much like the Utes, the Rebels struggled in their opener -- but still managed to beat a Division I team -- and hope to eventually display a run-and-gun offense following last season's 24-11 campaign that ended in the National Invitation Tournament.
Meanwhile, Morgan State is coming off a 22-11 season that included the regular-season Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference championship, but not a trip to the NCAA Tournament, after the Bears lost to Coppin State in their conference tournament and wound up in the NIT.
Disgraced former Cal coach Todd Bozeman is in charge, and he's trying to replace three key starters from last season, including the point guard. The Utes will play the Bears on Saturday, with the Bears coming off a disappointing loss at Manhattan last night.
