University of Utah football fans who tuned into the opening episode of “The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” on Wednesday night may have noticed a familiar face.
Cornerbacks coach/special teams coordinator Sharrieff Shah appeared in the episode, as his wife, Jen, is one of the six housewives the show features. The Shahs’ two sons, Sharrieff Jr. and Omar, also appeared.
On the show’s website, Jen Shah is described as “the queen of her house and her businesses as the CEO of three marketing companies. Always decked out in designer brands, Jen loves to host parties and spares no expense — it’s important to her that everyone knows she is the best host in Utah.
“With an extravagant personality and sharp tongue, she can go from 0 to 100 very quickly, but usually comes back with apologies and love. But it’s not always fun and games for Jen with this group of women when she quickly finds herself at the center of the drama.”
The senior Sharrieff Shah, who played at Utah from 1990-93, is in his ninth season on the Utes’ coaching staff. Prior to that, he was an attorney, agent, trainer and radio sideline reporter.
Sharrieff Shah Jr. played for the Utes from 2013-16, making all of his appearances on special teams.
