[QUOTE="3xWVUenginEER, post: 131700184, member: 1476506"] Donald EUGENE Nehlen’s first 14 seasons were some of the finest coaching WVU has ever had. October 25, 1996 was really when it went down hill from a “kick in the nuts standpoint.” The guy was a good coach who started with WVU at the rock bottom and brought some modernization to WVU football Starting in 1980. Steve Spurrier said when he left Florida ‘I simply believe that 12 years as a head at a major university is long enough and a change is needed. Don went 21 years——maybe 2 or 3 years too long. Don should be credited for giving a great foundation of modernization and also for two of the most iconic symbols in college sports: “The Flying WV” for WVU and I’m sure those bastards in Blacksburg took note with their similar VT. The Flying WV is as recognizable as any letters in college sports. I wonder how much money that trademark has made WVU the last 40 years. Overall Don is the best WVU Head Coach overall at WVU. Bowden was the best coach to ever coach at WVU but that was due to his Free Shoes U days. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. [/QUOTE]
