In 15 seasons on the major college level, West Virginia defensive coordinator Tony Gibson's units have produced about one pro player per year on average, a list that includes Pro Bowl cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones.
The first time Gibson laid eyes on Daryl Worley, Gibson thought he'd someday join the group.
"He stood out from Day One as far as his leadership and his abilities," Gibson said. "He wanted it. The way he worked, you could tell he was an extraordinary guy."
The hard work paid off last week, when the Panthers traded up in the third round of the NFL Draft to select Worley.
