West Virginia Running Back Donte Thomas-Williams Dismissed From Team

Former 4-star running back Donte Thomas-Williams has been dismissed from the West Virginia Mountaineers.

West Virginia backup running back Donte Thomas-Williams has been dismissed from the team for an undisclosed violation of team rules. Coach Dana Holgorsen announced the dismissal in a news release Monday. Details of the dismissal weren't provided and the release said Holgorsen would have no additional comment.

Thomas-Williams rushed for 43 yards in four games as a redshirt freshman in 2015. Thomas-Williams slipped to fourth on the running back depth chart in 2015 after running backs coach JaJuan Seider left a critical review in late August.
