Donaldson recorded 798 rushing yards with 11 touchdowns during his sophomore campaign. Donaldson scored in nine straight games during the 2023 season. Donaldson will join a young and talented running back group with Jahiem White, who had nearly 1,000 scrimmage yards as a true freshman.

Spells appeared in 12 games for the Mountaineers during the 2023 season. The Fort Lauderdale, Fl. native had eight total tackles and a pass deflection this past season. Spells’ sole interceptions with WVU occurred during the Virginia Tech game his freshman year, where he returned it for a touchdown.

Country Roads Trust was founded in January 2022, one of the country’s first NIL collectives at the NCAA Division-I level. CRT was created by Oliver Luck and Ken Kendrick, and currently has an advisory team highlighted by Jerry West, Pat White, Don Nehlen, Darryl Talley and other WVU greats.
