LOGAN — Over the last couple of years, as summer turned to fall and fans' interest turned to college football, Utah State University's hopes for success rode on the rocket arm and fleet feet of quarterback Chuckie Keeton.
Unfortunately, in both 2013 and 2014, Keeton's seasons were cut short by devastating knee injuries. When Chuckie went down, just three games into the 2014 season and little more than five games into the 2013 campaign, Aggie fans feared the worst.
And who could blame them?
But despite the loss of their dynamic QB, something truly magical happened in Cache Valley — other players stepped up, and the Aggies kept winning and winning and winning some more without him.
