No one is exactly sure what happened with Daniels this year. First month of the season he looked like the QB we hoped he would be, but when the calendar hit October he started regressing. He’d have a bad game, then a pretty good game, then a bad game, and so on.
There was speculation maybe he was playing though an injury. Then after a terrible performance against Iowa St when he went 8-22 for 81 yards Neal Brown was finally asked if he was injured and his response was, “You will have to ask him.” The problem with that was WVU had stopped making him available to the media.
The next week against Oklahoma he starts off the game by throwing a terrible pick and then just flat missing two easy throws. They pulled him from the game and he was never seen from, heard from, or talked about again.
