WVU athletic director Shane Lyons was quick to temper expectations for the Mountaineers football team in 2019.
“We have to be a bit realistic here,” Lyons said. “We lost five guys to the NFL Draft. Several key players on the offensive side of the ball.”
The Mountaineers are replacing quarterback Will Grier, left tackle Yodny Cajuste, tight end Trevon Wesco and wide receivers Gary Jennings and David Sills.
Lyons was blunt in addressing the challenges facing Neal Brown in his first year as head coach.
The biggest name among the returning defensive players was safety Kenny Robinson, but the all-Big 12 selection left the school due to a reported academic violation.

“We’re young, very inexperienced,” Brown said. “What we look like in the fall, I’m not sure of. I’m really not. We’ve only had 15 practices. But I do like our guys. They’re hungry and very humble. It’s going to be a fun group.”
According to college football numbers analyst Phil Steele, the Mountaineers are 119th nationally in overall returning experience.
“We’re going to be a young football team and I think our fan base understands that and there’s going to be some patience.”
(apparently some trolls on this board do not understand anything)
“We’re always going to try to build our team through high school football recruiting,” Brown said. “That’s how you build your foundation. I think it’s important to have guys in your program for four or five years.
(What a concept. Build through high school football recruiting)
