Emphasis still on WVU receiving corp
When WVU released their updated depth chart last week many assumed the lack of a fourth receiver insinuated an emphasis on the running game this season. However, wide receiver coach Lonnie Galloway reiterated the fact that the Mountaineers are still working to field four receivers.
“We will line two guys up on the outside, and hopefully, we’ll have four guys soon, so we can go two and two,” Galloway said when asked what is left to be accomplished before the Georgia Southern game.
As of now the depth chart shows Ka’Raun White, Daikiel Shorts, and KJ Myers starting at the receiver positions. Galloway made it a point to emphasize a key word in the depth chart though, “I’m sure you saw the depth chart a couple weeks ago and how it said ‘or,’ but we will have someone that goes out there.
“We have to solidify who’s going to start. Time and chemistry are something that you can’t have enough of.”
Newcomers Jovon Durante, Gary Jennings and Ka’Raun White are all showing a competitive edge that will result in playing time this coming season. However, with still two weeks to prepare for the start of the season there is no immediate rush to name starters. And according to Holgorsen it may be a collective effort.
