Utah State OC David Yost has turned the Aggies into an offensive juggernaut. This is how he did it.

Logan • The brains behind one of the highest-functioning offenses in the country takes a swig from his giant gas station styrofoam soda cup directly in front of his keyboard. Surrounding him on this end of his elongated desk are mounds of papers riddled with plays. On the whiteboard behind him? A gluttony of schemes and outlined plays. On the projector screen near the end of the table? Yep. More plays. A Microsoft Word doc is being pieced together ahead of Utah State’s road trip to Laramie, Wyo., this weekend.

David Yost is multitasking. With reading glasses falling further down his nose, with his black Oakley shades nearly lost in his signature blonde surfer bro mane, Yost is asked why his job is so fun, so easy these days.
