I hoped when Jensen was hired that we could tap into the Hanno Mattola pipeline. They played together from 97-99. I am not sure that this came through his connection with Hanno, but I think we will see a number of Finnish players at Utah during the Jensen era. (Mattola is a coach on the Finnish national team.)
This roster is looking good! By far the most athletic team the Utes have had in years maybe ever. AJ is tuned in and knows exactly how he wants the team to look. First time in years I’m excited for BB season. This team has a Houston feel to it. AJ will develop these athletes into team and role players. I like our 6’8 6’9 athletic post men that can jump and block shots.
