WVU Football To Add Players To Running Back Room During Preseason Camp

There are a lot of questions surrounding what was presumed to be one of the strongest position groups inside the WVU football program as recently as last week.

Before preseason practices started last Wednesday, expectations were high for the Mountaineers at the running back position, but now it seems the tide has quickly changed. It started last Thursday when WVU head coach Rich Rodriguez told the media that only two players at the position finished the second practice without "tapping out," and continued when only four of the seven players at the position took the field during the team's first practice open to media on Friday.
