SALT LAKE CITY — Utah opens its season against Michigan Thursday in one of the most anticipated returns to college football.
Many will be tuning in to see Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh in his return to the college ranks, but locally, many are just as excited about the return of Heisman candidate Devontae Booker and the future he holds for the Utes this upcoming season.
Following a 1,500-yard rushing season last year, Booker had the difficult decision of deciding whether to return to Utah or to pursue a career in the NFL. It was a 50/50 decision, he said, but one that wasn't too hard when he put everything into perspective.
