All of the "talent" real or just hype?-Noel Devine

I keep reading that WVU is loaded with talent. I have written the same. The question that comes to mind is: Hype or not? I will start with the most hyped player on the team. I hope to break down the rest of the "talent" in the days to come.

Noel Devine. Well if this kid needs further explanation I would say you haven't been watching this team in the last 3 years. He is a senior who has done nothing short of living up to all the 5 Star accolades he received when he was being recruited out of high school. His numbers have born that out as well. In the 38 (out of a possible 39) games he has participated in he has contributed the following: 520 rushing attempts 3,381 yards and 23 touchdowns. That breaks down to a rushing average of 6.5 yards per carry for his career. His longest carry from scrimmage was 92 yards but that is just one example of the explosive rushes witnessed since he has been a Mountaineer. He basically is a one man highlight real. He has also contributed 64 catches for 452 yards and a touchdown. It is believed that he will be utilized in this capacity even more this year as "the plan" is to get him more touches. Finally for his career he has also returned 30 kicks for 674 yards for a 22.5 yard average. Again, it is believed that he will be utilized in this capacity with greater frequency this year. If given the ball good things shall happen. Bottom line Noel Devine is for real not hype but "talent".
