[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 131696176, member: 1428007"] 2 of the last 3 didn't "have to be assistant coaches," thats who WVU chose to hire. Holgorsen ended up being the second winningest coach in WVU history--him being an assistant didn't hurt that--had he had solid defenses his teams would have won even more games. Being an assistant doesn't mean you couldn't be or aren't a great coach. Again, what does a "big name" coach have to do with anything? Dabo wasn't a "big name coach" and look at Clemson. ISU's coach wasn't a "big name coach"--they are moving up quick. You need a solid staff, a "big name coach" isn't the only way to win games. Holgorsen started off with a D coordinator that was already at WVU (Casteel-who quit). Then he tried Bedenbaugh and he moved on pretty quick so he moved someone in that didn't work out great--and then Holgorsen was pushed to hire Gibson (WV ties) who had never been a coordinator, did ok but never could get those stops when it was needed. The university should have found and paid the best possible, just like they found Gibson and pushed him on Holgorsen. Meanwhile Clemson hired a top notch D coordinator and paid him like it and the results speak for themselves. Brown is losing at an epic clip, in the bottom four of coaches EVER at WVU. His defenses haven't stopped anyone more than the previous staffs did, from winning games, and the offense is now non existent. I see Brown with multiple 14 pt or fewer games (8 so far in 2 seasons)--if the D can't hold anyone below that? Meanwhile the D is giving up these scores-not exactly stellar: 2020 OK State 27 WVU 13 ISU 42 WVU 6 2019 Mizzou 38 WVU 7 Texas 42 WVU 31 ISU 38 WVU 14 OU 52 WVU 14 T Tech 38 WVU 17 [/QUOTE]
