Gary Andersen's return home has been 'awesome' for coaches, players

SALT LAKE CITY — Gary Andersen looks relaxed on the sidelines as he watches players battle it out in the first week of fall camp at the University of Utah.

The former head coach seems to be enjoying himself in what almost seems a spectator role following a departure from Oregon State, where he left approximately $12 million on the table when he resigned midseason last year. Now, he’s back at Utah as its associate head coach and enjoying every moment at his alma mater.

“It's great to be back home in Salt Lake City,” Andersen says with a smile.
