The Big 12 will have a bit of a new-look to it next fall, as Baker Mayfield and Mason Rudolph leave Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.

At West Virginia, though, the signal-caller will return off a 34-touchdown, 3,490-yard performance in Will Grier.

The Florida transfer shined in his first year in Morgantown, and much of that was because of his top receiver, quarterback-turned-wideout David Sills V. Once Grier decided to make his return, Sills followed suit.

Sills hauled in 60 passes for 980 yards, with 18 of them being for touchdowns. He averaged over 16 yards per catch, making the 6-foot-3, 200-pounder a great prospect for the NFL.

Grier and Sills will look to build upon their strong first season together next year in hopes of making the conference title game.
