      #87 Thomas Yassmin, RS Junior TE, 6-5 248

      Thomas Yassmin came to Utah in 2018 from Sydney, Australia via Scots College in NSW, having never played American football.   He was a rugby player recruited for his size, athleticism and intellegence.  He is a student of business analytics and the tight end position.  He earned his BS in Quantitative Analysis Markets & Business, in May, 2022.   To date he has mainly been used in special teams where he’s logged a few tackles, but this year will be needed to fill-out the 2- and 3-TE sets.  Let’s hope he graduates Freddie Whittingham’s Tight End School Magna Cum Laude.

      I have been anxious to see his rugby skills migrate to the football field.  I am hoping he can be a big part of replacing production.

        His is a great story and I would love to see a huge season for him.   Similar to Yassim, Dalton Kincaid had only played one year of HS football before going to Univ of San Diego.  Dalton has some significant plays on ohfense on his resume already, not so much for Yassmin, yet.

          Kind of admire Yassmin for getting a headbutting penalty against the Ducks in the PAC12 championship game.
