WVU running backs turning heads before spring practice even starts

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Neal Brown has yet to see his West Virginia football team with an actual football in its hands. So with spring practice little more than a week away, the possibilities – and perhaps a few problems – are still limitless.

But based on the interactions he has had with the Mountaineers during offseason workouts and meetings, one position group is standing out.

“Running back,” Brown said. “I think that’s the strength of our offense right now.”

That probably shouldn’t come as a surprise.

Running back is the most intact position on the roster from last season.
