Breaking: Andy Staples Picks WVU to Win Big 12!

Predicts Major Accolades for Neal Brown and Jahiem White

In a stunning preseason prediction, ON3’s Andy Staples has picked West Virginia University (WVU) to win the Big 12 Conference this season. Staples, a respected voice in college football analysis, has placed his confidence in Head Coach Neal Brown and the Mountaineers, highlighting a remarkable turnaround and significant individual performances.

Neal Brown’s Impressive Turnaround

Staples commended Neal Brown for his exceptional coaching over the past season, emphasizing that Brown has successfully “coached himself off the hot seat.” Brown’s journey with WVU has not been without its challenges, but his perseverance and strategic adjustments have started to pay off. Staples noted Brown’s character, describing him as a “good guy,” which further underscores his ability to rally the team and the community around a common goal.

Garrett Greene’s Untapped Potential

One of the key factors in WVU’s projected success is quarterback Garrett Greene. Staples believes that Greene has only “barely scratched the surface of his potential” last year. Greene’s performance was pivotal, but it was the narrow loss to Houston on a last-second Hail Mary that kept the Mountaineers from reaching double-digit wins. With Greene expected to build on his experience and display even more of his talent, Staples anticipates a breakout season for the young quarterback.

Jahiem White: Player of the Year Contender

Perhaps the most exciting prediction from Staples is his pick of running back Jahiem White as the Big 12 Player of the Year. White’s dynamic abilities and consistency make him a standout player in the conference. Staples’ confidence in White’s potential to dominate on the field is a testament to the hard work and dedication the running back has shown. If White lives up to this prediction, he will not only elevate his own status but also significantly contribute to the Mountaineers’ success.

Looking Ahead

As the season approaches, the anticipation among WVU fans is palpable. With Andy Staples’ optimistic projections, there’s a renewed sense of excitement and hope. Neal Brown’s leadership, Garrett Greene’s growth, and Jahiem White’s explosive potential form a compelling narrative for a successful season.
