Report: W.Va. star RB Slaton to enter NFL draft FOXSports.com



Mountaineers star running back Steve Slaton will skip his senior season and declare for the NFL draft, his father, Carl Slaton, said in a report by the Philadelphia Daily News.

The departure of coach Rich Rodriguez to Michigan played a major factor in Slaton's decision.

"It was pushed on him with Rodriguez leaving and taking the whole coaching staff," Carl Slaton told the Daily News.

"If he went back, he would have to learn a new system and the coaches coming in now, they are looking toward the future."

According to the report, Slaton's family has been told he is a projected second-round pick, but "the NFL draft is a crapshoot," Carl said.

Slaton rushed for more than 1,000 yards in all three of his seasons at West Virginia. As a freshman in 2005, he gained 1,128 yards and scored 17 touchdowns. He set a school record with 1,733 yards on the ground in 2006, scoring 16 touchdowns.

This season, however, his yardage numbers dipped to a career-low 1,051, including just 9 yards rushing in his final two games. He did match his career-high with 17 touchdowns.

Mountaineers football spokesman Mike Montoro confirmed Sunday that Slaton informed the coaching staff of his decision Sunday afternoon.

I really don't see him being a second round pick.

Oh well, we still have Devine.

Stop talkin' bout stayin' the course
You keep on beatin' that old dead horse
You know they lied about why we went to War
I can't take it no more
