It appears that when it comes to playing BYU (in the sports that count) the Utes can do no wrong. First football, and last night in an unexpected turn of events, basketball. Chris Hill's hire of Ray Giacoletti a few years ago was a serious setback to the Utah basketball program, however it appears the program is making a comeback, at least in the big rivalry game. I am not convinced that Jim Boylen is the coach of the future for this team, but his first victory over the Cougs is definitely a step in the right direction, and the fact that he was able to keep his team focused all the way to the end of a close rivalry game is definitely a positive reflection on his coaching abilities. We'll see how he holds up in a month down in Provo.
