West Virginia football‘s David Sills V isn’t just one of the best wide receivers in the nation, he’s the best wide receiver — and it’s not even close.

In his second stint with the Mountaineers – this time lining up outside rather than under center – David Sills V is a top-flight, No. 1 target for the Mountaineer’s offense. Long gone are the days of Sills playing quarterback. He’s all about catching touchdowns now.
