Adam Hensley

Adam Hensley has the most experience at the Division I level, compared to Quondarius Qualls and Dylan Tonkery, but that doesn’t mean he will get the most playing time out of the three.

Hensley played in seven games for the WVU football team last season. Most of his time was on special teams, but he was able to play some linebacker.

That experience will help him as he will grow into a bigger role without Long readily available.

Hensley is 6-foot-3, 228 pounds, so he is also the biggest of the others that have been mentioned. He was a three-star recruit out of Centreville, Ohio two years ago so he certainly has the potential to help the Mountaineers.
