I would just like to say it really shows that you did your homework on this great show and yes I'm a mountaineer fan, keep up the good work sir I do believe you will be successful at it. 🏈💥
Ok you know some ball, good stuff.. I don't think they lose to Tx tech tho, Tech lost a ton of starters from last season. I don't think they will be all that good.. I can see WVU dropping that game in AZ tho, AZ has a really good offense and KSU will be pretty good too I agree... Just to give ya an update on the depth chart, Josiah Trotter will start over Cutter at LB, he got hurt before the season started last year and was supposed to start as a true freshman, his brother just got drafted in the NFL from Clemson. He's gonna be a beast for us from what I've heard.. Trey Lathan is back from injury at LB for us also, he broke his leg in the TCU game. Our two starts at CB will most likely be Ayden Garnes and Garnett Hollis jr. out of Northwestern.. We also got a safety out of Northwestern Jahiem Joseph that will most likely start at either SPEAR or FS.. I believe Coach Brown might switch Burks to SPEAR from what he's been saying.. This LB/secondary group is gonna be really good from what I've been hearing and from the little I saw in the spring game.. Very possible big 12 championship team. That schedule is somewhat tough tho. Should be a really fun season I think tho
Great video. Only thing I disagree with is the K State game. Our defense has to scrimmage and practice against dual threat GG and Marchiol week in and week out. I dont think the defense is gonna be slipped up by Avery Johnson.
I think this is a fair assessment of how the season could play out. Although I think we could find a way in the B12 Championship game with a little luck.
Bausley most likely wont be starting this year. He was brought in to step in next year and serve as backup/rotational player this year since we lose 4 OL after this year. Our starting OL will be Milum(Sen), Rimac(Jun), Yates(Sen), Malone(Sen), Hubbard(Sen) (All of which started last year or was primary rotational players). Rotational players this year will be (Primary)Weidman, Williams, Bausley, (Secondary) Livingston, Hamilton, Krahe After this year we will lose Milum, Yates, Malone, & Hubbard, and while Moore has built a solid OL room with quality depth, we will likely need to snag 1-2 experienced OL in the portal next year to ensure we dont experience a reduction of OL play. I would say Moore will get the rotational players as much live reps as he can this year to prepare them for their increased role next season. If WVU remains healthy, despite a brutal schedule, we have the talent, skillsets, & experience to make it to Dallas as well to upset PSU. WVU has the #8 toughest SoS out of all P4, so if we beat PSU and just make the BIG12 Championship I think WVU will get a CFP spot. If we beat PSU, I dont think WVU will have to win the BIG12 in order to get in, as long as they enter the BIG12 championship game with 10 wins. Im not nearly as high on Kstate this year as many people are, but they have a good amount of youth on their team this year and while their QB is certainly talented, it will likely take him some time to find his rhythm. Kansas, KState & Utah all have far easier schedules, def a far easier path to Dallas than WVU's. Most people talk about losing pieces on offense for WVU, and while Frazier & Nester were both great players, our OL could actually be just as good if not slightly better as a whole this year, since Milum, Rimac, Hubbard, Yates, will all be better this year than they was last season. So while the center position may not be as dominant in certain ways, Yates is a bit more athletic than Frazier, so theyll likely play to his strengths a bit more. You also have to keep in mind last year Greene's first full season as QB1, he was throwing the ball to 3 true freshmen with a true freshmen RB. Jaheim White, Clement, Ray, Gallanger should all take healthy steps forward this year, and Bray(OkieSt transfer) should play better than Carter. We also brought in a Miss State previous 4 star transfer in Robinson, and we have a couple talented true freshmen coming on campus that will likely be productive after mid season or so(give them 4-5 games to find their timing), such as DayDay Farmer, Keyshawn Robinson, Brandon Rehmann, or Dominick Collins(who ran multiple 4.2x 40 yard dash in camp). Our portal additions on Defense should also help our defense play on par or better than how they did last year before the TCU game. We lost several critical players to SEI during the TCu game and our defense couldnt take those losses, since we already had other injuries prior, last straw kind of injuries. Our DL, LB, & DBs all return experienced high end play makers, and I think our defense will end the season as a top 15-25 defense(if we remain healthy). Portal additions were spot on for exactly what we needed to maintain that caliber of play. Both sides of the ball should take healthy strides forward this year, and as long as we dont get hit by the injury bug, and if we get a few bounces go our way(ie no more hail mary losses), I think this team absolutely has a shot at playing in Dallas this season.
@@TheYates27 I heard Williams was another NFL caliber talent, it wouldnt surprise me if theres not much difference between Malone and Williams they give Williams the job mid season to prepare him for 2025 & beyond. That makes sense from a roster management & development perspective as long as the diff isnt noticeable between a young player with a few more years to give and a player in his last season. Esp that we lose 4 OL after this year, so Moore will have to be strategic about giving Weidman, Williams, & Bausley a good amount of reps. I know the young guys Moore has recruited are very talented, but Id say we'll need to pickup at least 1-2 experienced OL after this year if we want to continue the ride in the Nicco era.
The biggest additions are getting linebackers back from injury. Lathan played 4 games and Trotter didn’t play any both will start and be top notch in the Big12. I don’t think Bausley will start, but he will play a lot, they will have a 6OL package and he will rotate in the starting 5. I think Crandall is the future, Garnes and Hollis will start and Tarnue is going to play a lot also. Joseph was a good pick up at safety also. They also signed a top JuCo TE to add depth behind Taylor.
You need to do your homework on other teams. I understand this is a fan channel, but West Virginia lost by 2 TDs to OSU on your own home turf. You play at Boone Pickens stadium against the team that dominated you last year. You call OSU one dimensional without realizing OSU passed the ball more times than they ran it last year and had a qb with 3,400 yards. OSU didn't need to do anything other than run the ball considering Ollie Gordon had 282 rushing yards. How do you think West Virginia is going to stop him when they couldn't slow him down last year? Also, Bray was our 4th leading receiver in yards, and that's because Stribling got hurt. He left to get more playing time. I would be surprised if West Virginia did better than 8-4. You're not that good.
@user-cw5ni9tf2q I agree too. That's what I point out to the guys going there. The deal is, was last year about the teams wv played weren't real that good. I know the teams wv playing this year will be good. As long as their qbs show up. I dnt see Daniels. Ksu has 2 returning starters, banking on avery to be the next mahomes, even tho he only won 7 games. Ucf has the Arkansas kid. Not holding my breathe. You could find you schedule getting soft again. I do know osu will be fine got to much depth. It in stillwater.
Colorado don’t have a snowballs chance in the Big12. You may not like it, but the Big12 is tougher than the PAC12 from top to bottom. Any given week there is no free wins..
WVU by 14+ !! vs PSU !! You can tell you did your research! I think if WVU can knock off PSU... The Mountaineers win 11 games and go to Dallas!! Possible playoffs!!
