    RR Success Depends On......What?

    Every good FB coach knows it starts with Defense. Don Nehlen used say he wanted his best players on D. Poor D is why RR was fired at Michigan. On O, it starts with the QB. Woody Hays used to say the QB was the most important player. Next, you need to run the FB. Nothing takes the will...

    WVSPORTS.COM Toughness and physicality are key pieces to Rodriguez's teams

    Barry Alvarez said after playing RR' s Team in Morgantown years ago, they get football at West Virginia. We won the game, but they beat us up. This is the kind of FB I am looking forward to seeing at WVU again. It start fading under DH and left the building under NB. We need to get it back.

    To be honest, my real frustration with HCNB

    Yeah, NB was married to his RPO offense, and he was determined to run it h*ll or high water. He did not care how well it fit his personnel. If he threw in a variation, it was for only 1 or 2 plays per game. He valued player senority over talent. He was passive with his offense when he got...

    WVSPORTS.COM Greene reflects on final home game as a Mountaineer

    Greene gives it all. I respect him a ton. He's everything you want in a WVU FB player. He cares. He takes me back to the 80s. If everyone on the Team played liked Greene, we would be playoff team.

    WVSPORTS.COM West Virginia looking for answers before the critical stretch

    He is most likely to finish the season at 2-2. However, none of these 4 games are a given, and he could lose all four. If Baker keeps him at 6-6, 5-7, or 4-8; Baker needs to be fired as well.

    We all know what's going to happen....

    I do not see how it is possible for Brown to finish better than 6-6, mostly likely it will be 5-7. Baker can't keep Brown at 6-6 or 5-7, and Brown knows it (thus his recent testiness). Nevertheless, I always want to see the Mountaineers win. I will be pulling for them in every remaining...

    Speaking of tenure...who is this board's most tenured/still active poster?

    Probably not me, but I have been here nearly since Vernon start this board. I was here well before he started the Blue Lot. I occasionally posted on a more general AOL College Football board prior to the start of this board.

    Hardest hitters in college football?

    To me, Joesph reflected how we used to play in the 70s - 80s. In those days, we used to play D will a tough edge. We had guys like Tim Agee and Daryl Talley who would bring it. I recall Dan Marino complaining that his receivers were afraid to go across the middle against us. Even under RR...

    Basketball Question

    This team is bad in every statistical category that matters. You would think they could be at least average at something. So, the answer to your question is obviously yes and yes.

    WVSPORTS.COM West Virginia head coach Neal Brown press conference

    Another game lost as a result of a lack of discipline. Players playing for themselves rather than for the team. Not playing with discipline falls on the coaching staff. As it as been stated by so many, the margin between losing and winning in FB is often small -- a matter of inches so to...

    Blowhard Yormark failed

    Deny truth as you like. And, I could careless about the typo. I have been here since Vernon started this board. Ask him if you like. There used to be a lot of good posters here, but nearly all left and went to the Blue lot when Vernon started it.

    Blowhard Yormark failed

    It was Luck, hired as a consultant, that lined up Cinn, Central FL, BYU, and Houston as additions. It was BY that cut the line and got a new TV contract, and saved the conference. Bowlsby? Other than collecting big paychecks and giving an occasional lame speech, what exactly was his...

    WVSPORTS.COM Brown sees pathway for improvement with West Virginia football

    This PSU game went exactly how I thought it would. Our D looked almost as bad as last year's D. We couldn't throw and PSU stacked the box. For the most part, as expected, NB ran his RPO offense with an occasional gimmick play. Yeah, he threw in the triple option a couple of times and other...

    Crazy how our expectations have decreased with Mountaineer football

    I am not sure who you are speaking for? My expectations for WVU FB have not changed! I am not happy. My friends are not happy. I suspect most WVU fans are not happy. I was not happy with what I saw from this coaching staff on Saturday. If we end this season with less than 7 wins, there has...
