HENDERSON, Nev. — Football media are picking BYU senior quarterback Max Hall as their preseason pick to be Mountain West Conference offensive player of the year.

Hall was a first-team all-MWC honoree as a junior in 2008, with a conference-leading 35 touchdowns and almost 4,000 yards passing.
TCU swept three other best-of categories, with senior defensive end Jerry Hughes projected Tuesday as defensive player of the year.
Hughes was a consensus All-American and MWC defensive player of the year in 2008.
TCU teammate Jeremy Kerley, a junior kick returner, is projected to be special teams player of the year, and TCU running back Ed Wesley is tabbed as preseason freshman of the year.
Wesley is from MacArthur High School in Irving, Texas.
