SALT LAKE CITY — It didn’t take long for the University of Utah to replace Gary Andersen’s spot on the coaching staff.
A day after Andersen was named head coach at Utah State University, Utah coach Kyle Whittingham filled the spot with former Ute great Sione Po’uha. The former defensive tackle at Utah and the NFL will coach the defensive tackles.
“It’s great to have Sione back in our program,” Whittingham said in a statement. “In his playing days, he was an outstanding defensive tackle here at Utah and had a lengthy and successful NFL career as well.
