Against West Virginia, the Pirates won’t be throwing as much because of the talent level in the WVU football team’s secondary. A stronger rushing attack will be established early in the game against the Mountaineers’ young defensive front.
Scott busted out for a long run of 11 yards against JMU. He was a running fool in high school as one of the top prospects in the state of North Carolina in 2013. He earned a scholarship to Tennessee after totaling more than 6,000 rushing yards in four years of high school. He transferred from UT to ECU after one season and he is still developing.
