Utah State Aggies football coach Matt Wells was named the Mountain West Conference Coach of the Year on Wednesday, but will he be in Logan next year?

Wells’ name has been mentioned in connection with a number of open head coaching jobs as “silly season” begins. But Don Williams of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reported Wednesday that Wells “is the leader right now” to become the next head coach at Texas Tech.
