As Pimm left the family's home that day, Judkins turned to his parents and said, "He's going to regret saying that."
Pimm, of course, never did. He instead jumped aboard Judkins' expanding game and enjoyed a whole lot of winning. After growing and adapting his skills during his freshman season, Judkins led the Utes in scoring for the next three years. He helped Utah beat Kentucky — yes, you read that right — during his junior season, the Wildcats' first loss ever at Rupp Arena. He made the United States' World Games team that same year — 1977 — playing alongside other notable schoolboys Larry Bird, Sidney Moncrief and Darrell Griffith and winning a gold medal.
