Battles said what helped him make the decision to come to Utah is the history of DB’s being prepared for the league. Noting the amount of DB’s they put in the league; coach Shah, coach Scalley and their defense are the best for the next level.
•During the recruiting process he was able to reach out to Clark, ask about the coaches and program. Clark told him Utah is one of the best groups to prepare him for the league and well respected too. He said that really helped in his decision making.
•Switching to the Pac-12 he says the size of the players are different, but skills are always going to be the same; speed out here is a lot faster than the SEC in the skill positions.
•He also noted the group plays a lot of man, Battle’s come from a quarter system. Playing a lot of man is a little bit of a change but he feels like it’s the best option for him and it will prepare him the best for the league.
