Bleacher Report

WVU's defensive backfield will be counted on as it has rarely been before during the 2009 season; defensive coordinator Jeff Casteel has promised more blitzing, putting his defensive backs in more one-on-one situations. The good news is, the defensive backfield in WVU's unusual...
Auburn Tigers vs. West Virginia Mountaineers: A Week Three Prediction
September 18, 2009 by
Bleacher Report

Two weeks under our belt and two convincing wins over two mediocre football teams. Yes, we seem to be re-writing the rushing record books, but the quality of the competition just doesn't tell us much about Auburn at this point. La. Tech's loss to Navy demonstrated that they...

John Radcliff, of the Mountainlair and AOL FanHouse, is back for the post game interview (which is a bit late thanks to the three day weekend I had). BTW, once you have read this interview, go to this url and check out the song done by John, it is awesome to say the least.

Tomorrow at noon Syracuse will be on the field against West Virginia, and while the Orange are nothing to write home about, except if you want to yell about something, the Mountaineers haven't had the best start of the season either.

Five WVU Freshmen To Watch: No. 3, CBs Broderick Jenkins and Pat Miller
August 26, 2009 by
Bleacher Report
| Comments
It's not unusual for a skilled offensive player to get playing time as true freshman. Running back Noel Devine did it, as did running back/slot Jock Sanders. Sometimes a wide receiver will get in the mix. If a freshman makes a mistake on offense, it's usually a missed hole...

Today, I launch my unit-by-unit preview of the 2009 West Virginia football team with the group that has the most question marks coming in—the offensive line. (Apologies to who make a credible argument that the not-so-special-teams unit—among the worst in the nation last...

George Selvie, DE/LB, South FloridaSelvie is probably the only true 1st-round talent in the Big East that will enter the draft this year. He is a hybrid player that struggles to fill out his frame. Ideal for a speed-based 3-4 defense.Noel Devine, RB, West VirginiaWithout Pat White...

The Bills were really impressed with Ellis Lankster senior season at West Virginia and that’s likely why they took him in the 7th round. Lankster is on the small side at 5′9″, 181 pounds and he’s not the fastest corner around running a 4.51 40. But, it&...

If there's one reason to be optimistic about the 2009 Mountaineers, it's the linebackers. There's no way of knowing now if this is the best group in the Big East, or the nation, as some have said, so I won't. Instead, let's be a little more empirical. In Jeff Casteel...

Unlike its counterpart on the offensive side of the line, the experienced and deep experience defensive WVU is expected to help anchor the 2009 season. Because of WVU’s unusual 3-3-5 stack defense, the Mountaineers play a three-man line, which is expected to plug up gaps, occupy...
