According to www.connect-bridgeport.com WV would like to announce new coach by this weekend. Has interviewed Gibson, Fickell and Brown so far.
Dana already did that.Hope not he will set the program back
Dana already did that.

He did not you please tell me you aren’t one that thinks the big east is the same as big 12. I agree he had taken us about as far as he could but We aren’t in a horrible position moving forward. Losing recruits in this class will be devastating though if coach can’t swing them back. Ali Jennings is one...
I'm not talking about 8 years ago. I'm talking about now. Where are we now? Where did he leave the program? Are we in a better position than when he first arrived? Nope.Before Dana, WVU was watching UConn play in a BCS Bowl because we couldnt manage to win that **** show Big East....when we had Geno Smith.
We were squeaking wins from Marshall.

I'm not throwing a tantrum. The program (and Dana's record proves it) has been average based on his tenure here. He hasn't improved it from when he first started. He was brought in to compete for championships. How many of those did he lead WVU to?Absolutely. Just throw your tantrum and move on.
I think they all offically inked their LOI
There are ways to get around LOI but for the most part schools don't mess them up unless you are Baylor.

Yeah, with somebody else's players. Then went down hill from there. And "there" keeps being described as nothing compared to the Big 12.He won the Big East and the Orange Bowl.
WVU has never won a national championship. If that is your standard then we have never had a good coach.
Try to imagine this program if Stewart was HC for the last 7 years.

Please direct us to the quote from GG where he declares that Fickell is the choice. Please, we need to see the direct information from the guy you reference as one who is responsible for noteing the winner. Everyone on this site is anxious to get/see the definitive statement from GG. We await th reference to this info.Yep, thanks to Gee.
Based on?It's Brown. 4-year deal probably announced Saturday.
break out the chicksuitsPruett still has not removed his name from consideration

Getting outdone by Houston in the salary department doesn’t work for assistants and Gee is “heavily involved in hiring.” Irritates me to the highest degree. I don’t pretend to know about running a university he shouldn’t pretend to know about what it takes to run a football program...
Is there anything you don’t know?Allison is not starting material at all. He never will be. Trey Lowe will easily beat him out after spring with a new coach that won’t discriminate against every dual threat QB. It’s like Dana screwed over every dual threat QB cause he likes slow pocket stiff boys. We don’t need slow QBs. We need a balanced, athletic QB that can run and throw well enough. We also need to play better defense. The new coach will love Trey Lowe. He’s 6-3 220, can run, has strong arm to groom and has 4 more years here after enrolling early last January. He still kept redshirt with new rule.
Trey Lowe is our QB with new coach. Dana won’t be here to stupidly pick Allison over him. Dumbass Dana is gone. Thank God.
Still waiting to see the documentation that you used to be so emphatic as to the outcome of the search. I want to believe and have some closure to all the rumors.However, I am beginning to wonder if you were functioning from knowledge or a case of indigestion resulting in the expulsion of hot, garlic scented, gut gas.Yep, thanks to Gee.
WVU's sports teams have a long tradition of shooting themselves in the foot that began long before Holgorsen arrived.Lyons is smart to listen to Gee but needs to do what will help him fulfill his vision for the program. That's what he is hired to do. I agree that Dana had done all he could do. It was bumpy at times but in the end he grew as a coach and guided the program back to a competitive league. Now it's up to this next hire to take the next step forward.
I wouldn't say he set us back at all....he brought in the talent to win. That was the most frustrating thing with his teams....other than a couple seasons you could see how close they were but would always find a way to shoot themselves in the foot.
