MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — There’s a bowl game wedged between now and the offseason Shelton Gibson expects to define him. And if one didn’t know better, one might think the receiver is more excited about the winter weightroom workouts and behind-the-scenes pass-catching sessions than he is about playing on ESPN on Jan. 2.
“I’m going to have to do way more offseason work than I’ve done before,” admitted Gibson, who leads West Virginia receivers in yards (744) and touchdowns (eight) by a wide margin, but blames himself for the margin between a decent season and one that’s elite.
