Just speculation, but may not be a fan of Rich Rod style offenses for wide receiver development.

Tysean Griffin was a nice recruiting win at the time. I believe he had an injury, though. Is the consensus that he will remain a WR, or will he be in the DB room?

The last time we had a couple brothers on campus, it turned out pretty good.

No kidding!!! It's hard to imagine a WV player of the year not being offered a scholarship by his state school. That's probably one of things that upset his older brother and caused him to enter the transfer portal. But WV's poor decision is our gain.
Amazing what happens when kids want to be here! I hope both of these guys have a great experience and do a LOT of winning.
Because I think Josh was absolutely right, WE WILL WIN!
Or it could have been his coach getting fired
Good point.
He will be ready to have a break-out year next year. Him, Hank, Malik.. if we keep these 3 here I think with CDixon we are pretty stacked. Ash will be our deep threat and corner fade specialist.. he was pretty good in the slot, but him on the outside for a full season will lead him to break out! I’m guaranteeing it.

Kid can play … Sneaky add that Bret seems to have every year (Bailey, Resetich, Heckel) …
Is Wingfield a tackle? Or can he play tackle? Think I saw somewhere on X that he was the third highest graded tackle for PFF in last year's portal cycle (JC Davis was #1). But looks like he played guard at PU.

He can play both … Plan would be for him to play inside for us …
Davis, Wingfield, Kreutz, Henderson, Priestly …
That is really solid! I like a lot.
