      Not surprising given his sparse playing time over the last half of the season. But no idea why he wasn’t given any Rose Bowl reps when our D was getting beat like a 1970’s step child.

      Too bad, but the coaching staff seemed to prefer Elliss and Suguturaga.

      Oh wow! I thought he was coming along great and would be starting next year on the other side with Van Fillinger?! What happened??? Anyone know?

        Elliss and Suguturaga got more snaps than him, especially as the year went on. Wonder where he’ll end up.

        Listening to Bartle this morning on Riley’s show and he mentioned that the coaches wanted to move Carlton from end to tackle given his big body.  Sorry to see him leave, more depth the better.

      Source?  There’s no mention of it on his social media (still shows “University of Utah”), which is pretty uncommon these days.

      with a starting spot open for next year? that seems strange unless he had indications from the staff that there was nothing he could do to win the spot.

      maybe the rumors of Utah wanting him to move inside were true and he wanted to stay on the edge? Not everyone wants to get themselves up to the 300+ necessary to play inside.
