Colorado State Transfer DB Completes Move East by Signing with WVU Football

TJ Crandall’s move east is now complete. The WVU football program announced the signing of the Colorado State transfer defensive back Friday morning.

It’s believed Crandall picked the Mountaineers over staying on the west side of the country and going to UCLA. Instead of staying out west, the Colorado State transfer decided to move to the other side of the country and join the WVU secondary.
