MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – Nick Kwiatkoski isn’t looking forward to Sept. 14.
That day, his beloved Mountaineers are hosting one of his closest personal mentors as former West Virginia defensive coordinator Tony Gibson will return to Milan Puskar Stadium with NC State.
“I saw NC State on the schedule, but I haven’t even thought about that [part],” said Kwiatkoski, a West Virginia linebacker from 2011-15. “Gibby, I’m very close with him. He did a lot for me and my career. It’s going to be tough. That’s gonna be something I have to figure out when the time comes.
