EA Sports’ new college football video game will be hitting the shelves in less than two months!
How much love will West Virginia’s roster receive by the rating adjusters? The truth is, we won’t know until the game is released, but we’ll project what EA will rate every scholarship player on the Mountaineers’ roster.
Keep in mind that this is a projection of what I believe EA will rate the players and not what I would rate them as. So, don’t get too upset with me if some players are a little lower than expected. EA typically rates pretty harsh, so I took that into account.
Also, there may be some players who opted out of the game or may not be included because they are a late addition or true freshman. EA has not revealed the full list of players who have opted in, nor have they provided clarity on the status of the incoming freshman class.
With the 2024 NFL Draft kicking off Thursday (April 25), one West Virginia University economist is offering analysis and insight on a burning question facing every star college athlete: “Should I stay or should I go pro?”
Brad Humphreys, professor and associate dean of academic affairs and research at the WVU John Chambers College of Business and Economics, has studied college player decisions to either continue their educations or enter the professional sports landscape.
In a new study, he analyzed early draft entry decisions made by college football underclassmen with remaining eligibility from the 2007-2008 through 2018-2019 seasons.
