Utah hoops will play with ‘chip on our shoulder’ after picked to finish 8th

Deseret News: When he learned for the first time Thursday around lunchtime during a video conference on Zoom that the University of Utah’s men’s basketball team has been picked to finish eighth in the Pac-12 this season by the league’s media, Utes’ star Timmy Allen was more pleased than angry.



 

“I am not surprised,” said Allen, who was named to the Pac-12’s preseason media all-conference first team as part of the Pac-12 virtual media day. “They pick us around seven to nine every year. I think my freshman year they picked us ninth or something, and we finished third.”
