SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The Utes have added competition to the quarterback room with graduate transfer quarterback Jake Bentley joining Utah from South Carolina.
He was the starting quarterback for the Gamecocks for the last two full seasons before suffering an injury in the first game of the 2019 season, which ended his season.
