Therefore, whenever you hear the same name pop up over and over during player conversations throughout preseason camp, it’s worth a little closer investigation.
The name we’ve heard a lot this summer is Justin Crawford, last year’s junior college offensive player of the year. His list of accomplishments at Northwest Mississippi Community College is long enough to fill almost a third of a page in this year’s media guide, but sometimes accolades can be a little deceiving.
Not Crawford’s.
The 3,161 yards he produced in two seasons at Northwest are completely in line with what his new teammates at West Virginia University have seen so far in training camp.
