SALT LAKE CITY — Utah defensive linemen believe there’s a certain responsibility that recruits take on when they join the Utes. “It’s pride and responsibility,” senior defensive end Kylie Fitts said. The last time the Utes didn’t have at least one defensive lineman named first-team all-conference was in 2000. “Defensive linemen want to come here and they see the success that the defensive line has here and the notoriety that they get,” Whittingham said. “Just hard work and have that nasty mentality that we’re going to get after whoever’s across the line,” Fitts said.
