MORGANTOWN, W. Va. – Will the Camping World Bowl mark junior linebacker David Long’s swan song at West Virginia?
According to Long, not even he can answer that question at the moment.
“You’ll hear after the bowl game,” Long said.
Long’s long-term future is a promising one.
At 5-foot-11 and 225 pounds, he is not the prototypical size for an NFL linebacker. But guys who can play still find their way on the field – 5-foot-10 London Fletcher spent 16 NFL seasons at linebacker proving that point. And as the Big 12 defensive player of the year and a second team AP all-American, it’s clear that many people think Long can play.
