WVU's Swiss-Army Knife Up Front
Brandon Yates has been one of West Virginia’s most versatile and reliable linemen, with 33 career starts and experience at tackle, guard, and center. In 2024, he was expected to anchor the Mountaineers’ interior after handling a late-season move to center, and reports described that transition as smooth and effective. At 6-foot-4, 310 pounds, he brings veteran steadiness, positional flexibility, and a team-first edge that coaches love. If your team needs a battle-tested, movable piece who can stabilize multiple spots, Yates is the kind of glue guy who makes an offense less chaotic and a lot more trustworthy.
