Logan • Utah State coach Matt Wells didn’t plan on Jordan Love being an option at quarterback last season, not with incumbent starter Kent Myers back for his senior season. But, Love was so good in spring football and preseason camp, he essentially forced Wells and offensive coordinator David Yost to incorporate Love into the offense.
“It was apparent that we had to give Jordan a series and some reps with games in the balance,” Wells said.
Wells didn’t plan on Love playing well enough in limited time to take over the starting job during a redshirt freshman season where he was supposed to be learning.
