Former Florida quarterback Will Grier is transferring to West Virginia, multiple sources close to the WVU program confirmed to ESPN on Wednesday. Per the NCAA's transfer rules, Grier will sit out the 2016 season and work with the Mountaineers' scout team. But there's also the complicating factor that, in October, the NCAA suspended Grier for one calendar year following a positive test for a performance-enhancing substance. At the time, Grier said publicly that the positive test was related to an over-the-counter supplement. Sources told ESPN that WVU officials were satisfied with Grier's explanation. What is still unclear, sources say, is how much of a punishment Grier will ultimately be required to serve. Prior to his decision to transfer, ESPN reported that Florida intended to appeal whether Grier would have to sit out any games this fall. Sources told ESPN that West Virginia will work toward Grier being eligible to play in the 2017 opener as a redshirt junior. Whenever Grier is deemed eligible, he figures to be a nice fit to take over for Skyler Howard, WVU's second-year returning quarterback. Inserted into Florida's lineup in 2015, Grier led the Gators and Jim McElwain's first-year staff to a 6-0 start. At the time of the suspension, Grier had thrown for 1,204 yards (65.8 completion percentage) and 10 touchdowns and had just three interceptions. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound Grier reportedly decided to transfer after McElwain would not guarantee Grier that he'd return to the starting role following the suspension.

Good.
Didn't have the patience to win back the starting job after his suspension.
I wish him luck, but he dug himself into a hole and he can't blame anyone but himself.
