Statement from Coach Krystkowiak:
“We are very disappointed for Dave, especially with all of the hard work he put in and the commitment he made to our program over the last couple of years. It’s really a shame that he won’t get a chance to play his senior year at Utah. Dave is a great leader for our young team and will continue to be involved with our program.
