  Yeah, I just read this article. That’s quite the comparison. I hope he becomes everything they hope he will.

    Just looking at him I will say yes. Says 5’10” online. I think Covey is like 5’7.

  Can he catch the ball as well as Covey? When Covey joined the team all those years ago it seemed our receivers couldn’t make difficult catches. Covey’s sure hands were a welcome bright spot.

  In the Salt Lake media there always seems to be elements of jest best explained as a view from 40 miles south with bits of sarcasm. What we do know is Matthews is on the short side like Covey and has had a good start. We will see if he becomes a reliable possession receiver, makes the defense pay great attention, and becomes a return man that makes cover teams look like cowboys in boots trying to catch a chicken.
