West Virginia quarterback Nicco Marchiol will miss the remainder of the season and plans to medically redshirt and enter the NCAA transfer portal at the end of the year, On3 reported Wednesday.
Marchiol had been battling a foot injury the last few weeks. He missed last Saturday's Mountaineers loss to Utah due to that injury and was seeing a foot specialist in Colorado, according to coach Rich Rodriguez.
