As Utah Utes travel to No. 25 Colorado, Larry Krystkowiak-Tad Boyle friendship put on hold

The head coaches at Utah and Colorado, respectively, Krystkowiak and Boyle didn’t grow up together. They didn’t go to college together, they’ve never been on the same coaching staff. Only in the last decade, as their programs entered and tried to find their way in the Pac-12, has a friendship blossomed.

Utah and Colorado are Pac-12 travel partners, playing the same opponents in any given three or four-day stretch. That fact alone gives Krystkowiak and Boyle reason to talk regularly. They’ve been in a lot of Pac-12 coaches meetings together, and with both schools in the mountain time zone, it stands to reason they’re going to wind up recruiting some of the same kids.
