The Mountaineers’ loss will be Lane Kiffin’s gain. The infamous head coach is looking to rebuild the Owls’ program and Durante will breathe fire into the team’s offense. Durante will have to sit out this season, though. He can fully join FAU in 2018.
In 25 career games for the WVU football team, Jovon Durante had 59 catches for 709 yards and seven touchdowns.
Those statistics will leave a hole at wide receiver depth for the Mountaineers. It’s especially troubling because the WVU football team will be without the services of Marcus Simms, who was suspended for the first game against Virginia Tech on Sept.
