The Utah star Brant Kuithe was on the cover of the 2020 edition of one of the Athlon College Football preview magazines along with Nate Landman of Colorado and Zach Wilson of BYU. For the upcoming copy of one of the 23 regional magazines, Kuithe will be on the cover with Landman and BYU RB Tyler Allgeier.
Kuithe, Allgeier and Landman will be on the cover of the Mountain West magazine.
The Katy, Texas native had the option to go to the NFL but will be returning to Utah for the 2021 season. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, college eligibility was frozen so Kuithe will be a junior again in 2021. He was named second team All-Pac-12 for the second consecutive season.
