During his Ute career, Scott Mitchell rewrote the NCAA, Western Athletic Conference and school record books as the most prolific passing quarterback in the land. In 1988, Mitchell led the NCAA in total offense, amassing 4,299 yards to set a new NCAA sophomore record. He also broke the NCAA record for total offense in a game with 625 yards against Air Force in 1988, and it--as well as his 631 yards passing vs. the Falcons--remains a school record to this day.
Behind Mitchell, Utah led the NCAA in passing offense and total offense in 1988--a season in which the Ute QB set 24 school and 10 NCAA records. Twenty years later, Mitchell still holds 30 Utah passing and total offense records.
His many awards included twice being named Sports Illustrated offensive player of the week, as well the Sporting News' national player of the week. He was also finalist for the Davey O'Brien Award, the league's media pick as the WAC Offensive Player of the Year and first-team all-WAC quarterback, and Utah's 1988 Offensive MVP.
Mitchell went on to play in the NFL for 11 years for four different teams, including four years as the starter for the Detroit Lions. He also made some starts for Miami, Baltimore and Cincinnati.
Scott Mitchell was inducted into the Crimson Club Hall of Fame on Monday, April 19 2010.
Mitchell has since returned to Utah, and in January 2008, he was announced as the head football coach of his alma mater, Springville High School.
