During his junior season, Bey had 1,444 passing yards, 1,912 rushing yards, 41 touchdowns, and was the 10-6A Class Offensive MVP in the state of Texas. In an offense like Rich Rodriguez’s, Bey would be absolutely dynamic, and Rodriguez and his staff have made Bey a real priority in this class. Bey is shifty, fast and has a cannon for an arm. While other schools are offering Bey at other positions, Bey has been told that West Virginia is offering him as a quarterback, which is where he is most gifted.

Bey recently visited Morgantown, West Virginia on an official visit and told me that he absolutely loved what Rodriguez and the Mountaineers had to offer. For West Virginia to be included in this group of college football’s blue bloods is certainly a step in the right direction. If Rich Rodriguez can land Legend Bey, the future will be bright in Morgantown.
