Gwaltney Out for WVU

[JoeB]

Third leading rusher Jason Gwaltney will miss the next month for the Mountaineers.  That means he'll miss the Louisville game and the USF game.  So far he's gained 186 yards on the ground and has been one of WVU's top offensive threats.  This has to help our chances.

Go Bulls!

Is this a joke?  The third leading rusher totaling 186 yards over 6 games is a threat?

No seriously, 3rd on the depth chart is supposed to benefit us? Our 3rd string RB barely sees the field. I hope he doesn't get injured or WVU will be very worried.

Gwaltney is a beast.  Dont let the numbers fool you.  In third and short situations he's unstoppable and he's only a true Fr.  He was also the top recruit in the country.

yep he was S T R O N G

This is big news.  #1 recruit in the big east, #1 tailback in the country out of HS.

He's a Frosh, so he probably just started seeing the field in the last three games.  If anyone has seen WVU play, he's a threat.  For all we know Amarri Jackson is our third leading receiver, but I consider him a huge offensive threat for the Bulls.  Geez.

Just as a comparison, Gwaltney has as many yards as Ricky Ponton, our second stringer.  If we lost Ponton for a month, I would consider it a major blow to our backfield.  So would everyone else on this message board.  The numbers on these two are almost identical.  Also, Gwaltney leads their team in rushing TDs, so this tells me he's big in the redzone.

Griff and RH, before you speak so candidly, you might want to know the facts a bit more.  By the way, I just checked the numbers and Amarri Jackson is fourth on the team in pass receptions, but nonetheless a huge threat for the Bulls.

OK, so a guy who averages 31 yards/game is a threat to you?  Well, he isn't to me at all.  I know the kid has talent and will probably be a force at some point but not right now.  His stats speak for themselves.
