New Recruits Show Up Early for Utes
While coach Jim Boylen has been busy with his summer camps and analyzing the NBA Finals for us, his players have been working out on their own — with two notable additions.

Incoming recruits Matt Read and Marshall Henderson both have paid their own way to enroll in summer school and get a jump start on their careers with the Utes. Both look good, as far as Boylen can tell in his office — coaches aren't allowed to watch their players work out in the summertime — and have been playing with other members of the team.

Henderson, you'll recall, was one of the top prep scorers in Texas for L.D. Bell High School last season, and possesses a deadly outside shot. Read, meanwhile, is a 6-9 forward who played at Collin County Community College in Texas last season, whom Boylen regards as the kind of player who might not score a ton, but who does all the hard work required to win games.

The rest of the incoming recruits are expected to join the Utes at the start of the fall semester.

Thanks for the update. I hope he's right about Read. We need some hustle toughness.
