Utah's first private post-high school collegiate football program. We give student-athletes another shot at their dream — on the field, in the classroom, and in life.
Junior college football has disappeared from numerous states, leaving many high school graduates without a path forward. Starting in Fall 2023, USA Collegiate and The Coaches Team Foundation brought junior college football back to Ogden — along with a gap year program designed to give recent graduates another shot at achieving their goals.
"Helping post-high school players develop academically, athletically, and physically to reach their ultimate goal — playing major college football."
The Ogden Jets are one of Utah's first private teams, committed to the complete development of every player who puts on the jersey.
The complete development program built around who you become — not just how you play.

Coach Hunt-Loveless brings championship experience and a deep connection to Utah football. A former All-Big West linebacker at Utah State, his playing career included three conference titles — and that leadership carries seamlessly into coaching.
Last season he served as Defensive and Special Teams Coordinator, Linebackers Coach, and Academic Coordinator. His ability to connect with players and support their academic growth made him the natural choice to lead the Jets.
Rooted in the local community where his own football journey began, Coach Hunt-Loveless is passionate about preparing athletes for success — on and off the field.
The Ogden Jets aren't just a football program — we're a community institution. Ogden City Mayor Ben Nadolski shares why he believes in what we're building for young athletes right here in Weber County.
When local leadership rallies behind a program, it says everything about the impact it's having on the community.
Every player deserves a second chance to prove themselves. If you've got the drive, we've got the program. Come try out for the Ogden Jets.
