Mississippi State head coach Dan Mullen announced Tuesday after his team’s two-hour spring workout that sophomore linebacker Michael Hunt has left the Bulldogs football program this week. Hunt, who was projected on the 2011 spring depth chart as a starting linebacker, had 22 tackles in 17 career games at Mississippi State in a reserve role during his first two seasons on the active roster. The Bulldogs third-year head coach said he expected this decision by Hunt to be permanent. "Just doesn’t like football," the coach said. "He lost his love for the game." Hunt was ranked as the No. 63 safety prospect in the country by ESPN.com following his senior season at Franklin County (Miss.) High School in 2006 and listed as the No. 16 prospect in the state following his senior season by Rivals.com before signing with State over Ole Miss.
Mullen also announced Tuesday evening that junior defensive tackle Fletcher Cox was absent from practice due to “personal reasons” involving his family back home in Yazhoo City.
