Utah State suspended wide receiver Hayden Weichers indefinitely on Tuesday for a violation of team rules.
On October 22, Weichers was cited for solicitation of a prostitute by Logan (Utah) Police. The offense is a Class B misdemeanor. According to ABC 4, the arrest was confirmed by the Logan police chief.
Weichers, a redshirt freshman, had 10 catches for 84 yards this season. Against Hawaii, Weichers had three catches for 27 yards. His father, Gary, played football at BYU.
When asked about Weichers suspension by the Deseret News, both WR Ronald Butler and center Austin Stephens used the term "next man up" to talk about the depth at the wide receiver position for the Aggies. However, one wonders if there was a different phrase available given the nature of the offense.
“You know, as a teammate we’re going to wrap our arms around him and love him,” Stephens said. “All I can really say is that, and next man up. We’ll be ready to rock and roll Friday night.”
Utah State, already without quarterback Chuckie Keeton, who is out for the year with a knee injury, faces Wyoming on Friday.
