Whittingham: White will get bulk of carries

In Monday's press conference, Utah coach Kyle Whittingham confirmed that John White will be the starting running back and said that "he will get the bulk of the carries."

Whittingham said that White uses his speed and elusiveness to his advantage and that makes him different from his backup, Tauni Vakapuna, and the other backs, Thretton Palamo and freshman Harvey Langi. Vakapuna will get some carries and Palamo and Langi could see action, too, depending on the game's ebb and flow, said Whittingham.
