After reading this AP article, this has been the national media reaction to Carrington’s coming to Utah that I have seen, rather than the continual hysterical writings of the local SLC hacks.
DARREN CARRINGTON, WR, UTAH
The Utes are going up-tempo this year under new offensive coordinator Troy Taylor. Carrington, a graduate transfer from Oregon, has just the kind of experience that makes him a good fit in Salt Lake City. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound receiver had 43 catches for 606 yards and five touchdowns last season as a junior with the Ducks. He was dismissed by new Oregon coach Willie Taggart earlier this year after a DUI arrest.
“He creates separation. He’s got big hands, huge hands. Incredible ball skills. He’s a special guy,” Taylor said.
