Isaac Asiata hopes to add 'NFL' to resume

SALT LAKE CITY — He’s a four-year starter, a Morris Trophy winner and one of the best offensive guards to play at the University of Utah.

“That sounds great,” Asiata said. “That sounds like a lot of hard work paying off.”

A lot of hard work has also led to a lot of fun for the cousin of former Ute standout and current Minnesota Vikings running back Matt Asiata. But it wasn’t always fun, Isaac Asiata admits.

“At first, it was kind of intimidating,” Asiata said.
