West Virginia’s spring practice has come to an end, marking the beginning of the next phase of the off-season for the Mountaineers. With the conclusion of the Gold-Blue Showcase, the team will now focus on evaluating players and making tough decisions about the roster. Head coach Rich Rodriguez emphasized the importance of letting players know where they stand and discussing their futures with the program. The team aims to bring the roster down to 105 spots as part of the pending House Settlement, leading to difficult decisions for the coaching staff. Evaluations will be based on the players’ performance during spring practices and individual cutups of drills and live team reps. Some players may be encouraged to enter the transfer portal in order to make room for new additions to the roster. The second transfer portal window is set to open in April, giving the Mountaineers an opportunity to address any remaining needs for depth and address concerns. Rodriguez highlighted the importance of finalizing the roster by July in anticipation of potential revenue-sharing changes. Overall, the culmination of spring practices marks the beginning of a period of evaluation, decision-making, and preparation for West Virginia as they look ahead to the upcoming season.
