West Virginia Defensive Preview: A Big Hole To Fill

So Karl Joseph is out. That won't be changing. I guess that is to the benefit of the Cowboys, but even Cowboy players have even expressed their disappointment of not getting to play a top level talent. Who takes over though for the All-American? The answer is Jarrod Harper. Harper is a redshirt junior who has seen plenty of action even while playing behind the star of Joseph. Harper has played in almost 30 games in his career and has recorded over 25 tackles in his career. Yes, he is nowhere near the production of Joseph and probably won't be getting there, but Harper has shown to be a threat in pass rush, run defense and even special teams, where he blocked a punt last season against Maryland.
