Mississippi State head coach Mike Leach announced that running back Kylin Hill won't play Saturday against Texas A&M.

"He won't be dressed out, he won't be on the sideline," said Leach, who added that Hill isn't at the stadium for the game, according to ESPN's Adam Rittenberg. "No other details."

Reports surfaced that the talented ball carrier would be suspended for the contest, though Hill appeared to respond to the rumors shortly after.

Hill has struggled to get going in Leach's offense after being selected to the All-SEC first team last season. He's accumulated just 58 yards on 15 attempts through three games.

Mississippi State announced that Jo'Quavious Marks will be the team's starting running back against the Aggies.
