Azeri Coby Pushed the Limits in Indian Relay Racing
Azeri Coby Pushed the Limits in Indian Relay Racing During the winter months, Azeri Coby can often be found out in the frigid cold and deep snow, launching off cliffs and traversing the steep backcountry of the Intermountain West on the back of a snowmobile with his daredevil friends and relatives. But that feels like a very long way away on this early August day in Southeastern Idaho. It’s hot, dry, and dusty.
Clearing the Way: Pratts Restore Land and Support Rural Students
Clearing the Way: Pratts Restore Land and Support Rural Students It’s a unique vocation that comes with the expectation of being either very cold and wet, or extremely hot and dry. But it can apparently also be dark and eerie. “We’ve had grown men call just bawling,” Scott Pratt says of the unique adventure of being alone in the wetlands surrounding the Great Salt Lake in the middle of the night. “They’ve been on the phone just sobbing.
Eugene Gardner: Utah State's Tragic Genius
Eugene Gardner: Utah State’s Tragic Genius In the early 1950s, Utah State University was still known as Utah State Agricultural College, and what would come to be known as the Taggart Student Center was simply called the Student Union Building. When the much-anticipated grand opening of the new SUB officially happened in May 1953, USAC students were greeted by a large painting of a man wearing a beige lab coat over a white shirt and dark tie.
The Ballad of Bobby Wagner: Catching up with a Utah State Great
The Ballad of Bobby Wagner: Catching up with a Utah State Great It is April Fool’s Day in the Pacific Northwest, but the weather is no joke. This is genuine Seattle weather. The kind that authenticates every cliché you’ve ever heard when it comes the Emerald City — wet, gray, cold, rainy. It’s all on display on an afternoon when one’s windshield wipers need to be cranked up full bore if you want to catch a hazy glimpse of the Space Needle from Interstate 5.
2001: An Aggie Odyssey — Looking Back at Utah State's Upset of Ohio State 25 Years Later - Utah State Magazine
2001: An Aggie Odyssey — Looking Back at Utah State’s Upset of Ohio State 25 Years Later Recent NCAA Tournament success may feel like the norm, but for Utah State, wins in “The Big Dance” have been historically elusive. The Aggies’ 2024 victory over TCU and this year’s 86-76 defeat of Villanova represent two of USU’s eight tournament victories since their first appearance in 1939. And Utah State, which has made 26 total trips to the NCAA tourney, won just one game between 1970 and 2024.
Cleveland's Rock: Sam Merrill Breaks Out with Cavs
Cleveland’s Rock: Sam Merrill Breaks Out with Cavs To the average NBA fan, it could be considered a relatively meaningless game late in the regular season. After all, the Utah Jazz are “playing out the string” at the end of a brutal season that will conclude with 11 losses in their last dozen games, while the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers are all but locked into the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference with eight games left before the playoffs.

Neemias Queta’s Game Takes Huge Leap in Boston Jaylen Brown has seen a few things during his nine-year NBA career.

Leveling Up: Nivi Baral's Path to Gaming Company 2K Launched in Logan
Leveling Up: Nivi Baral’s Path to Gaming Company 2K Launched in Logan Sometimes turning a dream into reality involves carving out a career in something that’s not reality. And maybe even in something you’re not all that familiar with. “The only video game I ever really played was like … Mario,” Nibedita Baral admits with a small laugh. “But you’ve got to visualize what’s next, and I just think that nobody knows what that is. Everybody’s trying to figure it out.

USU Herbarium Houses Uintah Basin’s Unique Flora
USU Herbarium Houses Uintah Basin’s Unique Flora Thanks to the fruits of a lot of labor involving the gathering and cataloging of regional vegetation, two collections of plant life evolved into one very impressive herbarium on the Utah State University Uintah Basin campus.

Tanner Room Houses Unexpected French Furniture
Tanner Room Houses Unexpected French Furniture Situated on the third floor of a building constructed during the Great Depression, it certainly wouldn’t come as a shock if one encountered something of a vintage nature in the Tanner Room. But behind the wooden door and frosted windows of the otherwise nondescript chamber in the Family Life Building is housed a unique collection of hand-carved furniture that dates back nearly as far as Utah State University itself.

USU Physics Professor Exhilarated by Progress of Black Hole Research There are objects in space so dense not even light can escape from them.

‘The goal is the same’: After tasting victory in 2024 NCAA Tournament, Aggies are hungry for more
LEXINGTON, Kentucky — After going a long and frustrating 23 years between victories in the NCAA Tournament, the Utah State basketball program hopes it can trim its next drought down to a mere 363 days. But in order to do that, the 10th-seeded Aggies (26-7) will have to find a way to best No. 7 UCLA (22-10) in the 2025 NCAA Tournament Thursday night at Rupp Arena. The first-round matchup between the Aggies and Bruins tips off at 7:25 MDT.
Utah State excited to begin NCAA Tournament play against UCLA in iconic Rupp Arena
LOGAN — Like any good basketball coach, Jerrod Calhoun anticipated the moment. After the Utah State Aggies’ name wasn’t revealed during the first two regionals while his team watched the NCAA Tournament Selection Show Sunday afternoon, Calhoun quietly told guard Mason Falslev and forward Karson Templin to watch the 7-10 matchup Thursday in Lexington, Kentucky. And Calhoun became even more adamant that USU was coming up next once UCLA emerged as the No. 7 seed in the Midwest Regional.
Aggies hit 16 3s in 90-69 win over Nevada Original
Known as The HURD, Utah State's celebrated student section showed up for Wednesday night's game against Nevada sporting orange safety vests and blue hard hats. But it turns out that building a big lead and burying the Wolf Pack wasn't all that hard. Thanks to 16 3-pointers - including an 11-for-16 performance in the second half - the Aggies ended up crushing their longtime rivals, 90-69, at the Spectrum. "It was raining.
How Mason Falslev became a star for the surging Utah State basketball team
It seems highly improbable, but by the time Jerrod Calhoun had guided the Aggies through the first two Mountain West Conference games of his career, Utah State’s new head coach already had a player who had won the MW Player of the Week award four times. Such is the emergence of Mason Falslev. “I compare him to some of the greats that I’ve been around,” Calhoun said of USU’s sophomore guard. “I was part of a Final Four staff at West Virginia, and I compare him to Joe Mazzulla and Da’Sean Butler.
Well-traveled guard coming up big for red-hot Aggies Original
LOGAN - Although Jerrod Calhoun was basically an unknown quantity in the West when he was hired by Utah State last spring, Dexter Akanno felt strongly that it was worth the risk to transfer from Oregon State to USU to play for the Aggies' new coach. And thanks to the Aggies winning the first 10 games of Calhoun's tenure, it definitely looks like the right move for the Valencia, California, native.

INDIANAPOLIS — As an assistant under Ben Howland at Northern Arizona in the 1990s, Jamie Dixon had a front-row seat to watch as the Lumberjacks tried to slow down a young, talented guard from Montana State. “They won the league when he was a freshman, so we go way back,” Dixon said of Utah State head coach Danny Sprinkle earlier this week, shortly after it was announced that Dixon’s TCU Horned Frogs (21-12) will be facing No. 20 Utah State (27-6) Friday in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

Great Osobor dominates as No. 17 Utah State beats San Jose State
A scoring correction during halftime cost Great Osobor his fourth 3-pointer of the season, and the way the Utah State’s star forward played in the second half, you would have thought he was mad about it. But he wasn’t. Although the junior from England scored 19 of his 31 points in the second half to help propel the 17th-ranked Aggies to an 82-61 win over San Jose State Tuesday night, he was actually aware it wasn’t supposed to be a career-high-equaling 32 points.
Utah State scores 12th win of the season over East Tennessee State Original

Five weeks later, the Aggies completely flipped the script, blowing away Air Force 73-46 Tuesday night at the Spectrum on the strength of their best-shooting effort of the year.
