Show Curtice Predicts Successful Sports Season at U "If the first two days of practice prac-tice are an indication, then this squad is the best conditioned, highest spirited I've had since coming co-ming to Utah," University of Utah head coach, Jack Curtice said Tuesday. "We've got good depth in all spots, except center and end, and although the boys are not big they have good speed and agility I look for a good season." Like the rest of the clubs in the Skyline the Utes are holding two-a-day practices with the morning morn-ing session getting underway at 10 a.m. and the afternoon session at 3:30 p.m. Curtice has stated that he will throw the ball a great deal more this year with about equal distribution between running and passing plays. The key to the Ute's 1957 success may well hinge on the ability of Curtice's quarterbacks quarter-backs to fling the pigskin. Lee Grosscup, Wally Suba, Pete Haun, Ken Vierra and Terry Nofsinger are the prospective signal callers. Grosscup, Suba and Haun seem to be the top prospects at present but sophomores Vierra and Nofsinger Nof-singer could make the older hands hustle. |
