It's the latest in a long line of incidents involving Hogan. According
to ESPN.com's Big East reporter Brian Bennett, "Hogan has also been in and out of Stewart's doghouse and spent much of this spring running stairs instead of practicing for being out of shape, skipping classes and receiving a citation for disorderly conduct and public urination."Hogan will miss Saturday's game against Maryland, and the Mountaineers will certainly miss him for much longer than that.
CBS Sports rated Hogan a mid-second round pick in its 2011 NFL mock draft, ranking him the seventh-best cornerback prospect.
Walter Football ranked him as the No. 11 cornerback in the nation.
The senior had become a leader on the West Virginia squad, and was named to the Jim Thorpe Award watch list in the preseason, awarded after the season to the top defensive back.
As a junior, Hogan, Sports Illustrated named Hogan honorable mention All-American. He was an All-Conference first-team selection, starting every game and finishing the season with 74 tackles. He led the team in pass breakups (11) and was one of the Big East's best pass defenders.
Without him, head coach Bill Stewart will have to find his replacement. Stewart named three possibilities: senior Brantwon Bowser, sophomore Pat Miller or redshirt freshman Broderick Jenkins.
