Most Michigan State football fans didn’t know Mylan Hicks. Not like they thought they knew his classmate, Mike Sadler. Hicks wasn’t the public showman. Or as visible. He was a utility player — a cornerback, then a safety, then a linebacker, rarely a starter. He played mostly on special teams until his senior year. But, like Sadler, Hicks left his mark on MSU’s football program and its people. And, like Sadler, his life is over way too soon.
