Utah Basketball Offseason Grades: Better Roster, Bigger Questions?
Did Utah basketball do enough this offseason to take a meaningful step forward?
Steve Bartle and Andrew Crowley, aka Runnin’ Hoops Podcast hand out offseason grades for Alex Jensen, Wes Wilcox and the Runnin’ Utes. Following basketball media day, they break down a roster built for more size, better defense and greater depth—and how losing Noam Yaacov changes the outlook.
The conversation covers:
• Transfer portal grades and why Jackson Holcomb could set the tone.
• The international additions and what they bring to Utah’s rotation.
• Returning players, health questions and Lucas Langarita’s opportunity.
• The pivot to Trey Campbell and the uncertainty surrounding his eligibility.
• Whether the nonconference schedule gives Utah what it needs.
• Overall offseason grades and why the next step has to show up in the win column.
There’s a clear vision for what Utah wants to become. How much confidence should fans have that this roster can deliver?
