News item number two of the day, another big one (possibly much bigger) is that Kylie Fitts, Utah’s defensive end, is going to miss the rest of the regular season with a foot injury. This is an injury that Fitts had happen in the BYU game, and that he actually played on for a little bit. The injury will require surgery, Coach Whittingham said tonight at his coaches show.
Coach Whitt said that they’re going to petition for an extra year for Fitts, since he played only about a game and a quarter this season. Fitts also had to sit out some time after transfer from UCLA to Utah.
