Heisman candidates in the Big EastNoel Devine, running back, West Virginia: Nobody creates better highlights than Devine, and that's something the voters live. He'll have to do better than last year's 1,465 yards and 13 touchdowns, and the Mountaineers will need a big season. But he has the name recognition already.

WVU's Stewart to lean on Sanders, DevineMORGANTOWN, W.Va. -- Forget, for a moment, what can become of this 2010 West Virginia University football team -- a squad with nine starters returning on offense and nine on defense.
Imagine how different everything could look had two players chosen another direction.
Running back Noel Devine and receiver Jock Sanders, seniors and the Mountaineers' two most potent offensive weapons, thought about jumping into the National Football League draft pool after last season.
Had they left, this team would have been staring at a large problem. Instead, West Virginia is among the favorites to battle for a Big East Conference title.
