In 6 seasons at Utah, he went 98–86 and though he made three postseason appearances in a row from 1986 to '88, the program never advanced beyond the first round.

During his run with Utah, he would guide them through the most successful period in the program's history, but it was a run that got off to a slow start. </p><p>Shortly after his first season with Utah began, Majerus had to step down because of medical reasons. He faced heart surgery and would not be able to lead the Utes for the rest of the year. The team was taken over by his assistant Joe Cravens and they limped to a 7–9 conference record. However, when Majerus returned for the next season, he was healthy and so was Utah's basketball program. </p><p>In his first full year as head coach, Majerus guided the Utes to a conference championship and an <a href="/wiki/1991_NCAA_Division_I_men%27s_basketball_tournament" title="1991 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament">NCAA Sweet 16</a> appearance.
