For those who complain about there not being enough West Virginians on the WVU football team there are NINETEEN on the 2021 football roster.
However, on the spring depth chart I see on #1 (first team)
Zach Frazier, offensive center
Casey Legg of Cross Lanes (Charleston), kickoff kicker
Dante Stills of Fairmont #1 nose tackle on defense
So 16 of the 19 have a hill or totem pole to climb.
I’m sure I missed something which there are posters who will be delighted to correct me (and I will thank them for it)
Every football coach in America, from Nick Saban to whoever will be coaching Long Island when it comes to Morgantown, goes after the best talent. They don’t say: “Nah, not from same state as my school so I’ll pass.”
Owen Chafin of Spring Valley (Huntington area) at RB
