    Highly sought after QB coach hired

    Oh, that's not my opinion, that's RR's. "...there is great value in coaching at your alma mater, at your home university and in your home state." Rodriguez "didn't think the place was necessarily any more special than anyplace else," Garrison testified, "and I was angry about that." __WVU...

    Highly sought after QB coach hired

    Yes, completely agree. There is no problem. This is exactly what you look for when hiring a QB coach. But wait, why the "grew up in WV?" That's not important at all. There's nothing special about West Virgiinia.

    Wow! Therefore, that's proof positive that he will be a legendary coach! Wooo-hoo!

    Pat McAfee says "something special"......what do you think he means?

    It's great your RIchRod's buddy. I rooted for him too at one time. I remember him as an all-stater at North Marion and then being pumped to see him play at WVU. That was pretty rare back then. I know he grew up just miles from WVU and his family is still there. He was born and bred - a...

    Pat McAfee says "something special"......what do you think he means?

    I'd say RR had more chances than anyone in the working world would get and surprisingly more than anyone in the public eye would get. Don't you remember? He announced he was leaving four months after he renegotiated his contract and "his stated long-term commitment to the Mountaineers." He...

    Pat McAfee says "something special"......what do you think he means?

    Your knowledge of me leaves a lot to be desired, but that's beside the point. You want a 61 y.o. (a geezer!) coach who had three good seasons, as you yourself say, 20 years ago? And then, nothing. He had it all at Michigan and was a failure. He had it all at Arizona and was a failure. Who's...

    Pat McAfee says "something special"......what do you think he means?

    Geez, I leave for a couple of years, and here you all are back talking about the ********. He's an egomaniac and I care how he left us. You clearly fail to grasp the seriousness of his transgressions. There are many people that will never let it go and I don't blame them. He accused the...

    Hearing a lot more smoke on RR

    RichRod, LOL. He's nothin' special.

    Serious question. Does it seem that the...

    I agree with WVUBRU and JasonV. Same as it ever was, but they're my team, win or lose. I don't even have a choice in the matter since I was raised gold and blue. The internet makes it much more contentious. It seems to me sports fans are about the same every where. You love it when they're...

    I was there the same time, graduated in '85. I remember seeing The Silencers, from Pittsburgh I think, there.

    If you go back to the 80's you're probably thinking of "The Touch." Live bands, hard rock bar.

    Many have asked about Pat McAfee and his relationship with WVU. Here you go...

    RR's responsibility in the pitt loss was a thousand times worse than McAfee's. Geez

    Old Mountaineer Field should have never been demolished.

    I still have one of those styrofoam hats, lol. I do wish I had taken a piece of the old bleachers from there.

    Congrats

    I honestly think Marshall would have played better against any other 5 seed. You could see how emotional it was for them in the early going. Coming off such a great performance on Friday, their first tournament win, they didn't need all the extra in-state rivalry baggage. The tournament is...
