I assume App does mention the guys who we've gotten to the NFL. Why wouldn't we? It's a standard recruiting pitch for pretty much everyone, and we've had pretty good success there relative to our peers.
I think we'll have some guys drafted in the next couple years. Gossett, Moore, maybe Gibbs have those measurables the pros like and the production to match. And we're recruiting bigger, faster guys now across the board, so I think that will continue as we see which guys pan out from our FBS classes.
Here is the link to the fall sports streaming schedule.

WV, me too...I'm not saying the NFL guys are wrong, or I know better. I just thought more of our 9 would have been signed as UDFAs by now.WVAPPeer wrote:Don't get me wrong, I am not upset at all...I guess the best word might be perplexed.

Re: Is it just me with this question?
When you look at how many players you have and only what, 250? get drafted I am just not at all surprised that we didn't have any. There is just a ton of competition. You also have to take into account teams needs. Those 250 may not be the " best " players they may be the ones that are needed.
