Utah defensive coordinator Morgan Scalley is hoping to profit from the depth and flexibility he has at his disposal this season.

“Final 12 months, depth was an enormous deal,” he mentioned. “It’s going to proceed to be an enormous deal while you play the schedule that we play. You must have depth at each single place.”

The Utes boast plenty of gifted athletes that Scalley can be using. 

“It’s placing guys in the proper spots. You’re making an attempt to place your finest 11 on the sphere. And in addition understanding what’s one of the best 11 on this scenario,” Scalley mentioned. “Situational soccer performs an enormous half in what an offense goes to permit. … We do have some choices and we've some versatility on the security spot. A man like Cole Bishop can play within the field and may play again. Clayton Isbell offers some physicality within the field and a few size and vary up high. We now have versatility and we’re going to make use of it.”
