Court McGee to be honored by Utah Government today

It was the call no one wants to get, and that was especially true for Court McGee.

“It was a detective, saying, ‘We need you to call us back.’”

“I hadn't received that call in a long time,” said McGee, whose voyage through the world of drug addiction had him on the local police department’s rolodex for a while. But that was years in the past. McGee was sober, he was a UFC fighter that had just won The Ultimate Fighter, and he had moved on.

“I kind of freaked out a little bit,” he said before turning to his wife, Chelsea.
