“I want to start by thanking Coach Anderson along with the rest of the coaching staff for giving me the opportunity to be a part of this team which has become family,” the Pottstown, Pennsylvania native wrote. “I will forever cherish the bonds that have turned into a brotherhood. I appreciate all of the love and support Aggie Nation has shown me.”

“After immense consideration, I have decided to enter my name into the transfer portal. I’m excited to see what my future brings. I’ll forever be grateful for my time here at Utah State University!”
