West Virginia’s receiving corps hasn’t quite reached its perfect form, as seemingly everyone has dealt with a mild case of the drops at some point this season. But the unit is proving deep enough to overcome those individual lapses.
In every game, a different receiver manages to show himself as the guy quarterback Will Grier can trust the most.
Against Tennessee, David Sills and Gary Jennings were those guys. Each had more than 100 receiving yards. Against Youngstown State, Marcus Simms was Grier’s favorite target with eight catches while Jennings scored three touchdowns. Sills was the man against Kansas State with a trio of touchdowns, and Simms took over as top target at Texas Tech.
