Finally healthy, Brandon Cox makes his move at QB for Utah
When Utah’s Brandon Cox talks about his maturation as a quarterback, he notes that he’s now using his eyes more than his legs. That’s a big reason he’s turned in his best spring and has transformed what was expected to be a coronation for juco transfer Troy Williams into a competition that will last into the fall.
But really, Cox is happy with both his eyes and his legs, and not just because he’s a true dual-threat quarterback. Cox is glad that his legs are just healthy and working after multiple injuries — most notably to his feet — helped derail his previous attempts to win the starting job, something that hasn't escaped head coach Kyle Whittingham's notice.
