Utah State lost most of its coaching staff to various programs across the country and that might put a lot of pressure on him at Utah State. Not only do the Aggies have new coordinators but they also lost their four starting linebackers to the NFL.

All is not lost for the Aggies. They have credit built up and while their are questions on defense history has shown they are a good unit and until Utah State proves otherwise the defense should be fine.

The quarterback situation is finally settled after having years of uncertainty with plenty of injuries to go around, and Chuckie Keeton is no longer around casting a huge shadow over the program. The quarterback position is securely in the hands of Kent Myers who does not have to look over his shoulder. This could be Myers breakout year now that he is the guy under center.

There are some concerns on offense with the wide receivers being green with the loss of Hunter Sharp to the NFL, but the running game should help counter that with the combination of LaJuan Hunt and Devante Mays.

While the division is out of reach, this year, the Aggies should be heading back to a bowl game.
