Football: Ex-Aggie lands at San Diego State
Remember those Utah State football players who ran afoul of the law two summers ago and were subsequently booted off the team by coach Brent Guy?

One has apparently cleaned up his act and landed at San Diego State.

Taylor Wallace, a 6-foot-5, 290-pound offense tackle, signed with the Aztecs during the junior college signing period recently. Wallace played last fall for El Camino College in Torrance, Calif.

SDSU coach Chuck Long said he spoke to Guy and did a lot of investigation into Wallace's past before deciding to siign him.

"It's over and done with," Long told the North County Times. "That happened two schools ago, and it was the kind of mistake young people make."

Wallace was initially charged with felony drug distribution for allegedly providing marijuana to five teammates. The charge was later reduced to a misdemeanor.
