Overview

  • Marchiol is not expected to play again in 2025 and is already ruled out for Friday’s game at No. 23 BYU, per CBS Sports.
  • He suffered a foot injury against Kansas and has been consulting specialists in Colorado and Arizona as medical staffs coordinate evaluations.
  • On3 reports he is expected to take a medical redshirt, which would preserve two years of eligibility if granted.
  • Multiple outlets, including On3, report he is expected to enter the NCAA transfer portal after the season.
  • With Marchiol sidelined, West Virginia has turned to Jaylen Henderson and redshirt freshman Khalil Wilkins, who split time in the loss to Utah.
