MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — By design, Neal Brown got off to a late start with his first recruiting class at West Virginia.
Though he was already running behind in a game that starts in earnest when high school players are still juniors and sophomores, he needed to be sure of what West Virginia had on its roster before building the class.
Unfortunately for the 2019 Mountaineers, the team’s deficiencies quickly became clear. Fortunately for the future Mountaineers, that also made it plainly obvious as to how Brown needed to repair the roster.
West Virginia needed depth on the offensive line.
