2015 Senior Book.Indd Contents This publication has been produced to provide information on the 22 Mountaineers who either completed their eligibility for West Virginia or entered the NFL draft early following the 2015 season. It contains updated information through the conclusion of the 2015 campaign. Mountaineer Senior Reviews ....................................................................................................3 Highlights, honors, superlatives and fi nal statistics for the 22 Mountaineers who completed their careers in 2015. 2012 Season In Review ............................................................................................................35 West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen led the Mountaineer football program into uncharted territory, beginning an affi liation as a new member of the Big 12 conference. The Mountaineers fi nished 7-6, their 11th straight winning season, made their 11th straight bowl appearance, a school record, set numerous off ensive records, had several players earn postseason honors and established a solid foundation in its new conference home. 2013 Season In Review ............................................................................................................45 Three words that come to mind when summing up the 2013 West Virginia football season were inexperience, inconsistency and injuries, and the Mountaineers had plenty of each, resulting in a 4-8 record and tying for seventh place in the second year of Big 12 competition. 2014 Season In Review ............................................................................................................53 West Virginia played the toughest schedule in school history during the 2014 season, facing fi ve teams ranked in the Top 12 nationally. However, facing such a tough schedule still didn’t hinder WVU from showing improvement, as it fi nished with a 7-6 record, had a 5-4 mark in its third year in the Big 12 Conference, its highest conference fi nish and made an appearance in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl. 2015 Season In Review ............................................................................................................62 One of the top accomplishments for the Mountaineer senior class in 2015 was to fi nish with the most wins (8) by a WVU football team since becoming a Big 12 Conference member. The WVU seniors also led the program to a bowl game for the third time during their careers and won the Cactus Bowl. WVU fi nished with an 8-5 record, tied for fi fth in the Big 12 Conference and earned the 15th bowl win in the school’s history.
