If you read this twice it is a concerning financial picture for WVU athletics. Heavy debt load from all the frivolous "upgrading" done to entice some 18 year old to accept a scholarship combined with the in increasingly heavy travel cost in the westward leaning B12 is a long term problem. Standing in the bottom third in revenue is a bad flag also. Look for a belt tightening.

It's not as bad as they want you to believe but it will be after having to buy Neal out.

Neal Brown hire at WVU has turned out to be a huge mess equal to Louisville getting Kragthorped.
