<body><div>It's about that time again, which is crazy because it feels like just yesterday I was writing the spring camp previews. Back then, football preparation was taking a backseat to the pending basketball coaching search. This time around, fall camp will be in the spotlight of the WVU sports world. Today we continue the position-by-position preview for preseason camp. The Mountaineers went 9-4 last season, including beating up on UNC in a bowl game that ended with <a href="https://247sports.com/Coach/neal-brown-450/">Neal Brown</a> being covered in mayonnaise. <a href="https://247sports.com/college/west-virginia/">West Virginia</a> football enters the 2024 season with significant wind in its sails, so fall camp should be particularly interesting to watch next month. At this current time, there is no media access schedule.With all of that said, let's continue the previews with the cornerback unit.<figure><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=02lKPh_0ugstfwx00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=02lKPh_0ugstfwx00" width="620" height="320" ><figcaption>(Photo: USA TODAY Sports)</figcaption></figure>Current Scholarship Players Returning: <a href="https://247sports.com/Player/jacolby-spells-46094391/">Jacolby Spells</a> (Jr.), <a href="https://247sports.com/Player/jordan-jackson-46149615/">Jordan Jackson</a> (r-Fr.)Incoming Recruits: Keyon Washington (Fr.), Chris Henry (Fr.)Transfers In: Garnett Hollis (Sr.), <a href="https://247sports.com/Player/dontez-fagan-46055467/">Dontez Fagan</a> (Sr.), Kekour Tarnue (Sr.)*, <a href="https://247sports.com/Player/ayden-garnes-46097908/">Ayden Garnes</a> (r-Jr.), TJ Crandall (So.)Transfers Out: <a href="https://247sports.com/Player/andrew-wilson-lamp-46084468/">Andrew Wilson-Lamp</a>, <a href="https://247sports.com/Player/montre-miller-92497/">Montre Miller</a>Declaring early for the NFL or retiring: None*expected to play safetyThe breakdown: We've officially hit the position group with the most turnover on the roster. Both starting corners from last season, Bishop and Ruffin, depart with no remaining eligibility. Montre Miller, who was expected to be a big contributor in 2023, transfers after missing almost the entire season with injury. Also transferring out is Andrew Wilson-Lamp, who began the season as a starter but swiftly fell out of favor after a poor showing in the first couple of games. Neal Brown and company brought in a host of transfers to fill the void, and did a pretty good job at doing so. Garnett Hollis, a legitimately good starting cornerback at <a href="https://247sports.com/college/northwestern/">Northwestern</a>, comes in as the most high profile addition and will almost certainly take over one of those starting spots. The other will most likely go to Ayden Garnes, a versatile defensive back who transfers in from <a href="https://247sports.com/college/duquesne/">Duquesne</a> after an elite showing for a couple of seasons at the FCS level. Dontez Fagan and TJ Crandall, a pair of former group-of-five standouts, expect to join the returning Jacolby Spells and Jordan Jackson to fight for second string. Keyon Washington and Chris Henry are the only two high school recruits here, but neither project to make an early impact in 2024.What to watch for in fall camp: Will Ayden Garnes be challenged for the second starting position? I feel pretty confident about Hollis' status as a starter. Garnes, on the other hand, is certainly the leader for the other spot… but it's more up in the air. What I'm looking for most in fall camp is if guys like Crandall, Spells and Fagan, who all have more FBS experience than Garnes, can push him heavily for the job.
