After losing senior standout running back Marcus Cox in week three vs. Miami, redshirt sophomore Jalin Moore has emerged on the scene to keep the Mountaineer run game as its most effective weapon.
With the ground game being a key component of the App State offense and Cox being the number two active rusher in the FBS, it was essential for someone to fill the running back slot effectively and keep the run game strong. Moore has done just that.
“We hate that Marcus is out, but obviously when a guy is out at any position the next man up has to step up and Jalin has definitely done that,” running backs coach Stu Holt said.
