    EDIT: Didn't see this in The Wire. I need to check that more often.
    I adjusted this a little for you.

      EDIT: plus past seasons have shown that he is an injury away from significant time
      Unless, of course, Asiata plays during the next two years as well.

        I'm not sure how far along in school Asiata is, but he'd most likely have to start graduate school or go after another degree to be at Utah for two more years. I don't know if he likes school that much.

          Too bad he liked his hair too much to go to BYU.

          As if that's the reason, I know.

            I thought he chose the U because he didn't want to be around tennis racquets in the windows.

                It's easy. We cheat. I expect to have Asiata on the team until he's 30.
