AMES, Iowa – All West Virginia defensive end Reese Donahue can think about is the laser pointer.
Just in case it wasn’t obvious enough, West Virginia defensive coordinator Tony Gibson paused Thursday’s film study with the Mountaineers defense to hammer a point home. Iowa State freshman quarterback Brock Purdy is going to try fool you with his killer pump-fake, just like he did against Oklahoma State the week before.
Despite that training, the lesson didn’t take. Purdy never appeared to get spooked against the West Virginia defense in his second career game and first career start.
