Along with Nick Nash, juniors Malikhi Miller and Charles Ross have stepped into bigger roles in the passing game with Lockhart sidelined all season.
SAN JOSE — San Jose State’s chase for a second Mountain West Conference title in four seasons starts on Friday night, but it won’t include star wide receiver Justin Lockhart.
Lockhart, a senior, was a preseason All-Mountain West First Team selection but hasn’t played a down this season. SJSU is coming off a challenging non-conference slate, but gets a fresh start with the opening of Mountain West play at Spartan Stadium against Air Force on Friday night. The Spartans have turned to junior Nick Nash to take over the No. 1 receiver spot with Lockhart sidelined. Nash leads the team in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns through SJSU’s first four games. Nash, a converted quarterback, had huge games against No. 5 USC and against Toledo over the weekend .
“We’ve always had a next man up mentality,” said SJSU offensive coordinator Kevin McGiven. “Justin was a good player, and there were some things that we’d like to feature in our offense with him, but we’re not doing anything different schematically because he’s not with us.”
