How about that headline. You have no idea what I’m talking about. As usual? And speaking of William Crest — that’d be a hint to precede pressing play — his role this past Saturday and on Saturdays to come is sort of fluid.

“Will’s a good player,” Smallwood said. “I think we should get the ball to him a lot and let him make plays.”

That might not be the outcome. Holgorsen has given no indication he’s even considering making Crest his starting quarterback even as Howard has committed seven turnovers in this two-game losing streak and completed 35 of 67 passes for 361 yards.

It would also appear Crest’s role against Oklahoma State was a matter of necessity and not creativity. Smallwood missed practice time last week with a bad ankle and Seider wasn’t sure Smallwood would play, never mind top 100 yards for a third straight game. Crest practiced at running back for the first time in a long time in case Smallwood couldn’t play.

“I wouldn’t say he’s our third running back,” Seider said.

Seider said he intended to use Crest to keep Smallwood and Rushel Shell fresh, but he knew Crest could also capably replace one of those two and let WVU use its two-back sets.

“He’s a good athlete,” Seier said. “It gives us another chance to get a guy on the field they have to worry about.”
