In the past few years, a number of Mountaineers have decided to transfer out of the program and seek greener pastures elsewhere. With the 2020 season now in the books, let\u2019s take a look at how those former West Virginia players fared at their new schools.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most notable transfers from West Virginia was wide receiver T.J. Simmons. Simmons left Morgantown after the 2018 season and landed at Alabama, where he became an immediate contributor. In his two seasons with the Crimson Tide, Simmons caught 66 passes for 859 yards and four touchdowns. He also earned All-SEC Honorable Mention in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Another former Mountaineer who made an impact in his new home was defensive lineman Reuben Jones. After transferring to Florida State, Jones made an immediate impact on the Seminoles\u2019 defense, recording 28 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, and two sacks in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Offensive lineman Jacob Buccigrossi also found a new home after transferring from West Virginia. He ended up at UCF, where he started all 12 games at right guard in 2020. He was part of an offensive line that helped the Knights average over 500 yards of total offense per game.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, defensive back Derrek Pitts Jr. left West Virginia following the 2019 season and ended up at Kentucky. In 2020, he started all 11 games for the Wildcats, recording 47 tackles and two interceptions.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, it\u2019s clear that the former West Virginia players who decided to transfer out of the program have found success at their new homes. Whether they\u2019re contributing on the field or in the classroom, these former Mountaineers have made an impact at their new schools.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The transfer portal has become an increasingly popular way for college football players to find new homes, and West Virginia has been no exception.
