As EerSports reported earlier in the week, offensive tackle Marcell Lazard had not been practicing with West Virginia this spring. Tuesday marked the fourth practice of the spring, and when he did not show up for that as well, West Virginia officially confirmed what was already suspected - the former starting lineman is no longer with the program. Details were not provided.

Lazard played in 26 games during his career and started twelve of them. The redshirt senior was listed as the backup left tackle on the pre-spring depth chart, however, with former starter Yodny Cajuste expected to be fully healthy and taking his job back. Lazard is on pace to graduate in May and could be eligible to play elsewhere as a graduate transfer if he chose to do so.
