The Utes rusher takes a step back to the MWC from Big 12
Former Utah running back Jaylon Glover has officially committed to UNLV out of the transfer portal, bringing his talents to Las Vegas under newly-hired head coach Dan Mullen. Glover entered the portal in November during the 2024 season after seeing his role diminish in Utah’s backfield. He played just three games, recording 12 carries for 60 yards, and his inability to redshirt ultimately pushed him to seek opportunities elsewhere.
Glover, a standout talent with a strong resume, brings a wealth of experience to UNLV. Over his two years at Utah, Glover played in 25 career games with three starts, rushing for 982 yards and six touchdowns. His 2023 season was particularly productive, as he played in all 13 games, accumulating 562 rushing yards and two scores while contributing seven receptions for 67 yards.
In choosing UNLV, Glover cited the program’s vision under Mullen and the appeal of playing home games at Allegiant Stadium, home of the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders. “Who doesn’t want to play every home game in Allegiant Stadium?” Glover told On3, emphasizing the excitement of competing on such a stage. Mullen, who previously recruited Glover at Florida, humorously reminded him that he “wouldn’t lose to me again,” sealing the deal in their renewed connection.
