[QUOTE="Ohio1nole, post: 129825713, member: 740241"] Just a passerby.. My opinion doesn't mean anything but here are my thoughts.. When has WVU ever been a recruiting power? They are highly up against the 8-ball considering that the state of WV produces hardly any D1 talent. So right there you don't get the benefit of plucking the top prospects in your state then going out of state to finish off your class. You have to go to Florida, Texas, or wherever and try and recruit theirs. Problem is, those kids normally go to the big school in that state. So you get their leftovers and try and find diamonds in the rough. Yeah there is the occasional Noel Devine who will join but for the most part WVU isn't getting the top kids outta state. From an outsiders point of view, it seems that WVU fields a good football team whenever they have a roster full of seniors that have been in the program for a while and put together a good season.. Also the location isn't really ideal in trying to sway kids to that part of the country. Most kids couldn't locate Morgantown on a map. You don't have weather as an ace in the pocket, no beaches, no city life. But the biggest problem is high school football in WV is terrible. Again, just a passerby's opinion on the topic. Thoughts?
