Kyle Whittingham and the Utah Utes face a pivotal moment as top recruit Aaron Dunn decommits, shaking up their 2025 recruiting class. Can the Utes overcome this setback and maintain their competitive edge in college football?

This episode dives into the Utah Utes' upcoming clash with the TCU Horned Frogs, analyzing key players like Micah Bernard, whose performance against TCU Football's vulnerable run defense could be game-changing. Despite the loss of Dunn, the Ute's offensive line remains strong, with expectations of returning intact next season. The discussion also covers Utah's recent defensive challenges, particularly tackling, and anticipates improvements against TCU's offense.

On today's episode of Locked On Utes, JT Wistrcill and Elijah Grayson Murray of Athlon Sports discuss Utah Football's recruiting loss and which Utah player will ball out vs TCU.
