MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Sophomore receiver Marcus Simms, following his second DUI in four months, will be suspended for West Virginia’s season opener against Virginia Tech.
“We have very high expectations for our student-athletes,” said Mountaineers coach Dana Holgorsen, “and they know that how we represent this university is more important than their contribution on the field.
“While every case is unique and discipline imposed is based on varying factors, this suspension is warranted. It is my hope that Marcus works hard to fulfill his obligation as a member of our community and as a member of our football program.
