      Getting super excited for the season to start and started looking at the actual roster, as I kept trying to think of all of the potential play makers on this team, so I put together this list. Pretty impressive!

      The next 4 Wide Receivers who could have an impact:

      Tight ends with the highest likelihood of making a significant impact on the field for the Utes in 2024-25:
      Brant Kuithe
      Landen King
      Carsen Ryan
      The next 3 Tight Ends who could have an impact:
      Miki Suguturaga
      Caleb Lohner
      Dallen Bentley
      My 2 intriguing prospects:
      Spencer Clegg – Was a big in-state get out of American Fork HS, who has returned from a 2-year church mission. Likely won’t play much this season, but could be a big impact player as early as next year.
      CJ Jacobsen – Comes from GREAT pedigree, as his Dad was a GREAT safety for the Utes. Was a high 3-star recruit who is very athletic. Also don’t anticipate him getting much, if any PT this year, simply due to the depth and talent ahead of him, but he should be a very good player as early as 2025.
      That’s some crazy good depth AND talent at those two key positions. Have we EVER had this much talent and depth at TE and WR? I do not think so and really hope it pans out this year. VERY good chance it does, with a 7th year Sr. QB who can sling it getting them the ball.
      Next position I will highlight will be the D-Line.
      Go Utes!

      I agree that Munir McClain could be one of our best contributors on the outside. He has all the right tools. Last years small sample size was proof that he can be a difference maker. His high-point catch against ASU was one of my favorite plays all year.
      I would be interested to hear some thoughts on where he fits on the depth chart this year.
      Good list!

        I can’t believe that Utah and Arizona were both 7-3. That is wild. With how much everyone is talking about how great Arizona will be this fall…

        Also, those were two wildly different 7-3 teams…

        Possibly the best we’ve ever had. That’s good, because we could be looking at RB by committee. There’s tons and tons of potential in the RB room, but who knows. The only proven play maker is Bernard. I’m thrilled to have him back.

        Spencer Clegg is a stud. He moved from linebacker to tight end during spring and is probably viewed as physical blocker that can still run routes and catch the ball if needed. He’s a walk on from the 2022 class that is trying to work his way onto the field. You’re mixing him up with his brother that returns from a mission this fall (will miss this season) and will play defensive end. But you’re absolutely right, that tight end room is loaded. The top three (and maybe even the top 6) have NFL potential and any of those 6 could be great starters for us!

          Thanks for setting me straight on that.

        Excited to see Landon King this year. Don’t sleep on Pittman.

      Great post, UtesRule.

      Yes, we are loaded at both positions and have a quarterback who can get them the ball. Will we average 300 yards passing this season? Maybe. But if we blow some teams out, we will call off the dogs, so who knows?
