[QUOTE="pressvirginia, post: 129403844, member: 1348623"] 8 wins should've been the mandatory goal considering it's proven impossible the last three seasons. anything short shows no progression or sign the program is moving forward. I just don't see any way they rally at this point to win 5 straight. WVU is a top 25 program in all-time wins. Program has more all-time Ws than any in the current BXII other than TX & OU. people lose sight of that. other programs of that variety would move on to another coach if they had our recent results. UGA, for example, is upset with 9 & 10-win seasons, beating ranked opponents every year and winning bowls. a 7-5 finish [I]and[/I] a bowl win to get to 8 may save him. but if they fall at K-State in the finale & it's a sour taste, do Gee and Lyons wait on a bottom feeder bowl result to determine the future? & when other teams will be humming with their coach searches there in December? I doubt it. I felt since the summer 7 wins ain't enough. & this would be the time to evaluate an extension because there's just 2 remaining contract years. can't recruit with that. [/QUOTE]
