BYU's Matt Hadley grateful for senior year do-over, has become one of Cougars' top running backs

Ravell Call, Deseret News

PROVO — For the second time in as many years, BYU’s Matt Hadley will experience Senior Night festivities Saturday when the Cougars host New Mexico State.

But this version will be much different from the other.

“It’s pretty emotional for me personally. I already had one of these last year. I didn’t know if I was going to get another one,” Hadley said. “I’m grateful that I’m here. It’s gratitude and humility.”

Hadley suffered a broken kneecap early in the 2017 season as a senior and played in only four games before undergoing season-ending surgery.
