Boylen Takes Off in Search of Talent
With an entire week between games -- the Utes face UNLV in a huge game next weekend -- coach Jim Boylen took the opportunity to head out of town on recruiting.
His targets?
One is Alex Dragicevich, a 6-foot-6 forward from Glenbrook North High School near Chicago, and the other is Steven Baird, a 6-8 forward from James Madison High School in San Antonio, Texas.
Both are evidently great shooters, judging by scouting reports, and seemingly versatile enough to play perhaps a variety a positions -- a key aspect that Boylen frequently says he seeks in his players. And while Dragicevich seems to have been somewhat under the radar until recently, Baird clearly is not; his choices include Texas A&M, Marquette and Kentucky, according to Scouts, Inc.

They should stagger the bye weeks for mens and womens basketball in the MWC. My five-year-old has to endure an entire week with neither a mens or a womens game.
Not sure if he'll make it.
I hope all these top recruits pan out. It seems like every year I get all excited about the incoming recruiting class because of all the hype, but no one seems to quite live up to all the talk. But I have high hopes yet again for next year's bunch! On paper they sound great!
