Patrick Kinahan: Utah losing Tuttle is par for the course

SALT LAKE CITY — The two quarterbacks walked off the field side by side after practice last week, sharing a bond as teammates but also competing for playing time for a position where all but one watches during games.

Little did Tyler Huntley know Jack Tuttle would leave the Utah football program the next day, apparently no longer willing to wait his turn. And so, after two years in the making, the highest-rated quarterback recruit in Utah history was gone.

Midway through his freshman season, after committing to the Utes well before his senior year of high school in California, Tuttle bolted without ever playing one down in college.
