  Utah kicker Jordan Noyes is transferring, announcing the move on his Instagram Thursday. The Australian walked on to the team in 2020, handling the majority of kickoffs in 2021 and making two field goals and 21 PATs. Noyes handled field goal duties through the first seven games of the 2022 season, but the job went to Jadon Redding after Noyes missed a kick in both the UCLA and USC games in October. Redding kicked field goals through the Pac-12 championship, but left the team ahead of the Rose Bowl. Noyes was a perfect 4 for 4 on PATs against Penn State. Noyes finished his career at Utah 8 for 12 on field goals and a perfect 55 for 55 on PATs. - Deseret News

  2022 ALL-MOUNTAIN WEST FOOTBALL FIRST TEAM: DB - Jack Howell, So., Colorado State,...Howell, who was named a freshman All-American a season ago and earned midseason All-American honors this season by Pro Football Focus (PFF), led the nation's defensive backs with 108 total tackles and 9.8 tackles per game – the second-best mark in the league overall. He joins his father, John, as the first-ever father-son duo in Mountain West history to be recognized as all-conference performers. The Howell's are believed to also be the first father-son duo to earn all-conference honors in program history as well. The Fort Collins, Colo., native is also Colorado State's first-ever underclassman defensive back to earn first- or second-team while a member of the Mountain West and first to do so by a Ram since Greg Myers as a freshman (1992) and sophomore (1993). He is the first Ram underclassman on defense to earn first-team honors since Nordly Capi in 2011. - Colorado State Football

  2022 ALL-MOUNTAIN WEST FOOTBALL FIRST TEAM: WR - Tory Horton, Jr., Colorado State,...Horton, the league-leader in receiving yards (1,131), receptions (71), and receiving yards per game (94.3), wrapped up his Biletnikoff Watch List junior season as one of the nation's most feared wideouts. His season totals put him at No. 8 in yards, No. 10 in receptions, and No. 11 in touchdown receptions (8) for a single season. Against his fellow juniors in school history, the yardage total was the second-most ever and the receptions total was the fourth-most.

Horton is Colorado State's seventh receiver to earn first-team All-Mountain West honors and first since Warren Jackson's 2019 honor made it six-straight years with a first team selection at wideout. Horton joins Jackson, Preston Williams (2018), Michael Gallup (2017, 2016), Rashard Higgins (2015, 2014), David Anderson (2003), and Pete Rebstock (2000) as first-team honorees. A weapon any time he touched the ball, Horton also received honorable mention designation by the voters as a punt returner. The Fresno, Calif., native finished with a 15.5 return average with 11 returns for 171 yards, including a 72-yard touchdown return against Wyoming. The average ranked as the seventh-best mark in school history. - Colorado State Football

  Defensive line star Mohamed Kamara announced on Tuesday via Instagram his intention to return in 2023. It will be his fifth season as a Ram, using his NCAA-granted extra year of eligibility due to playing in the COVID 2020 season. Kamara was second-team all-Mountain West in 2022.
