The Sock 'Em, Bust 'Em Board Because that's our custom

Twenty-one!

This was from before Lamonte McDougle committed yesterday, so I’m pretty sure West Virginia wasn’t nibbling fingernails waiting on his decision. But add the mean man in the middle to the 2017 class, please, and make room for the slightly more surprising addition of receiver Reggie Roberson. He chose the Mountaineers over Utah, Washington State and Illinois.

With those two now on the list, WVU has 21 players committed to the class, and receivers coach Tyron Carrier, who landed Roberson, seems to have room for at least one more. He’s feeling pretty good these days.

About that … that’s certainly optimistic. Maybe it’s true, but the reality is the Mountaineers are about to rely on a roster with darn near the least returning production in the country.
