MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Since hauling in a 60-yard touchdown against Virginia Tech during last season’s opener, Gary Jennings has made 86 subsequent catches yet no more scores.
That statistical anomaly seems certain to end soon for a such a high-volume receiver. However, the drought continued during preseason camp,
“I was laughing because yesterday at practice he makes a phenomenal play,” WVU offensive coordinator Jake Spavital said. “But he catches it and goes out at the half-yard line. Gary’s got a ton of catches. We just have to get him in the end zone.”
Hot, hot, hot
A steamy 82-degree afternoon awaited the Mountaineers on Tuesday for their first fully padded preseason practice.
