William Crest may never be QB with WVU football

Two years later, he still might not assume the role at QB, in any capacity.

Skyler Howard is the team’s starting quarterback. His potential and work ethic have gained favor in the eyes of WVU head coach Dana Holgorsen. Some struggles won’t land him on the bench. He is the team’s go-to guy and will remain in that role for his entire season season.

So, where does that leave Crest? The Baltimore native had just as much potential as Howard two years ago. After all, they both arrive on campus in Morgantown roughly the same time.

Crest had to deal with some injuries when he first suited up in the old gold and blue, thus receiving a medical redshirt in his first season.
