EX-WVU FOOTBALL PLAYERS HELD WAITING BOND - Police Say They Robbed Glenville Foodland

(10/20/2004)
Two ex-WVU football players are incarcerated in Central Regional Jail, waiting for bond to be posted. It is set at $200,000 each.

Travis Garvin, 25, and Alvoid Mays, 38, were caught after they allegedly held up the Glenville Foodland at gunpoint Friday night, according to State Police spokesperson Sgt. Jay Powers.

Garvin, of Bradenton, Florida, was a wide receiver for the Mountaineers from 2002 to 2003.

He was WVUs third-leading receiver as a senior last season, but was suspended for part of the Gator Bowl in January for violating unspecified team rules.

Garvin also left the team two other times in 2003. Once after a cousin was shot to death in a Bradenton parking lot. He missed the 2002 Continental Tire Bowl for personal reasons.

The Big 12 freshman of the year at Missouri in 1999, Garvin left the team a year later after a disagreement with then-coach Larry Smith about a knee injury suffered in practice, but other news reports say he was suspended over a drug problem.

Mays, of Palmetto, Florida, was a defensive back on West Virginia's 1988 team that played for the national championship in the Fiesta Bowl, then played six seasons in the NFL with the Washington Redskins and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Mays later played three seasons with the Tampa Bay Storm of the Arena Football League.
