8. Rasheed Marshall (2001-04)

Rasheed Marshall comes in at No. 8 as another dual threat quarterback for the Mountaineers. During his time in Morgantown he led the Mountaineers to three straight bowl appearances including being ranked as high as No. 6 in the country in 2004.

Marshall was known as the tone setter for the golden years of the Rich Rod era and helped the team build into what became a Big East powerhouse.

Most fans don’t give the credit to Marshall that he deserves. He had a 4-2 combined record vs Pitt and Virginia Tech during his time as a starter and paved the way for the Pat White years.

Marshall threw for 5,558 career passing yards and 45 touchdowns to only 26 interceptions. He took tremendous care of the ball and part of that may have been his ability to make plays with his feet instead of forcing throws. He racked up 2,040 rushing yards throughout his career which is actually good for 17th on the all-time rushing list at West Virginia.

Marshall signed with the San Francisco 49ers as an undrafted free agent and spent one year with the team as a wide receiver and punt/kick returner.
