SALT LAKE CITY – The 2024-25 Runnin’ Utes are beginning to take shape after looking like the wheels were coming off just a few weeks prior.
Craig Smith and crew picked up another big transfer commitment, this time from former San Francisco forward Mike Sharavjamts.
Sharavjamts comes to the Utes as a four-star transfer prospect, making him the third four-star pickup for Smith in this class.
Looks like some more good news for @UtahMBB came out around the same time as the CFBHOF news.
Nice four-star forward pickup for Craig Smith and crew in Mike Sharavjamts.#GoUtes
