Four seasons ago, Utah linebacker Chase Hansen was asked what his goals were in football. His response:
“I’m not one to brag, but for me, I’ve always felt that it’s not really a choice. I have to be the best. And whether that’s here at Utah, in the conference or in the country, I’ve always set my goals pretty high. My goals are set as high as anyone can set a goal.”
That was before Hansen had played a single down of college football, all the way back when he was a quarterback-in-waiting for the Utes.
