Heckstall off the team

Post by rAggie » July 6th, 2019, 12:45 pm

I've seen a few posts and tweets discussing WR depth and no one has acknowledged that Devin Heckstall is no longer part of the team.

I have confirmed with three separate sources that he is no longer a part of the team. He's still on the official roster, but that's more a matter of it not being updated (you'll note there are other players, like Mariner, who aren't on it yet).

Consider this a follow up to the brouhaha regarding his tweets recently.

Heckstall off the team

Not shocking at all. Hope he can go to Grambling where he will fit in. Nothing but good wishes for him.

Yeah, after his many tweets (and the long thread here viewed nearly 6k times) I would say this seemed expected. Wish the best for him wherever he goes but I think he saw the writing on the wall when it came to his pecking order among the Aggie WR's. With the new arrivals, things didn't get any better for him.

You'd be pissed about everything too if your name was the Mormon version of Hellstall. This is a similar situation to how Sam Logwood (UNM bball player) was almost Sam Longwood (infinitely cooler). But these are things we have to live with.

It's pretty late in the game. But I haven't heard of another WR coming in.

We did bring in Sean Carter late. Maybe the writing was on the wall.

The coaching staff always had intentions of bringing in one more guy and Sean Carter has been on the radar of the new staff since late December.

I think we bring one more in. The staff has been looking. Has to be the right guy. Has to be eligible immediately. And has to be able to contribute immediately. I hear we are waiting on summer school grades on a few.

No me and him talked a few weeks ago about this. I had heard a name he checked and the guy was not in contact with usu. But I am hearing we are looking. He has different sources than I do.

I just keep hearing we are in the market for the "Right guy". The grades part including a good bit of speculating and reading the tea leaves so to speak.

Since we're speculating, are you thinking grad transfer or JuCo guy?

My gut tells me late qualifying grad transfer.. Or a 3 year JC kid... I would think the 2 year JC guys are thin at this point.

If I had to guess summer grad transfer

If I had to choose, I'd go with the 3 year JuCo kid. Taking a kid like that kind of became a Matt Wells thing, I don't know if Coach Andersen and the boys will adopt the same philosophy. I do know the JuCo coaches that I've talked to love Stacy Collins!

I hear the same thing. He is making a name for him self. I think we are going to be lucky to keep him on after this year.

I think Stacy is one of those rare guys that truly enjoys coaching here at Utah State.

I can't say for certain but the coaches that were here with Coach Wells and then became members of Coach Andersen's staff all entertained other job offers before ultimately choosing to remain at Utah State.

Heckstall is the last guy we need on this team. If a player is miserable where he is, he just stirs the pot of discontent.

Well said! 100% agreed. If you can't be happy playing for a players coach like Coach Andersen then you probably ought to start looking elsewhere.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
