Here’s what Andy Ludwig is changing about the Utes offense and what he’s keeping the same

A month after Utah receiver Britain Covey’s knee surgery and a couple of hours into Andy Ludwig’s second stint in the Ute program, Covey visited his new offensive coordinator in January. He asked one fundamental question: What’s the look of a Ludwig offense?

Ludwig's response reflects adaptability, as opposed to indecision. “He knows exactly what he wants to do,” said running backs coach Kiel McDonald.

That means making sure what he’s doing fits what the Ute athletes do best. From his start with tiny Augustana College to working with five Power Five programs, Ludwig, 54, has done everything from complete overhauls to merely using the team’s old playbook.
