Why do we keep playing Powell?

Dookie! We all thought you were dead!

I couldn't resist your allure!

I couldn't resist your allure!

You took 9 months off.....what for?

Grier would be better IF he wasnt in

You took 9 months off.....what for?

He may have heard the forum shut down and almost died.

I don't know if a good QB could make him stop tripping over his own feet or going down when someone sneezes on him.

He is a total waste of playing time.

It certainly appears that Powell has been affected by the foot injury he had last year. Don't know if it was one of those Lisfranc problems that are said to be debilitating but he no longer appears to have any burst or elusiveness with the ball in his hands.

A- The staff likes him
B- Alvin Bailey was a bust
C- Massey injury
D- All of the above

I would move "Massey injury" to A. Massey starts at slot receiver when healthy. Powell is a converted running back. Good kid, but very average college slot receiver

3 months off the sentence for good behavior?

So you're saying Grier would have just lit it up then?

It seems Grier's suspension to technically end in the middle of the 2017 season will actually end at the end of
this 2016 season. That's shortening the suspension by 6 games. Since Grier will be competing from the very
beginning of the 2016 WVU practices, we will see if his ability is outstanding. ?? See if he is their starter?
WVU's 2016 QB is a senior.

Hell of an effort today.
