Kyler Hack of Utah State?

Recommended Posts

One month ago, in this article, Kyler Hack was being suggested as one of the five starters for Utah State (at RT) this season on their offensive line:

Yet now he is no longer even listed on the Utah State roster

and this recent (4 days ago) projection of what the Utah State offensive line will look like this year makes no mention of him.  What's up with that?

The same could be said for Utah State's DL Caden Andersen - who is also no longer listed on the Utah State football roster.  He was mentioned just last month as a likely starter for Utah State this season as a DL.

Caden is a local kid that got his degree got a good job offer and moved on.

Hack was a backup that was thrust into a starting role last year due to injuries and he struggled. The OL is probably the deepest group on the entire USU team this season and I think he saw the writing on the wall once the new guys were added to the returners and the depth charts were released. That MWC Connection article seems to be short on research since Koch is often labeled the most talented of the group and he's listed as a backup in that article. It also doesn't mention Falepule Alo who is battling for the starting C spot against returning starter Ali'ifua. Hack deciding to sit out or move on is not a big deal.

Caden Andersen was slated to be the starter in the middle of the DL so the fact that he decided to take a job opportunity and move on with life hurts much more. Especially since the DL may be the weakest group on the team.
