I stopped reading and lost all respect for their rankings when they had Bronco Mendenhall (who led the Cav's to a solid 2-10 record last season) ahead of DH.

I thought the same thing. I get it's the off season and trying to generate interest ect. But... come on.

Must all be based on the losses to Kansas and Iowa State:lol:

One thing speaks volumes about why our coach is not ranked very high. The game against Clemson in the Orange bowl, and the two teams positions now......

Seems Dana's rank rose after Shane took him off the hot seat. Top 25 is on the horizon.

Yup, Holgorsen is in reality a much better coach than Saban or Meyer, Lyons is holding him back!!!

Yep... Dana has proven he is better. If he could get those #1 and/or top 5 recruiting classes like Meyer and Saban, he'd kick their asses.

Just think how great he'd be with a 20 year contract, WVU would NEVER lose!!!

Not too sure about that, but he took over a bare cupboard... a team around 60 scholarship players... finished with 10 wins last year... top 20 ranking too. They're in everybody's too early top 25 2017 preseason rankings.

Maybe it is time to consider a 20 year contract after all...

Yea, those bare cupboard no talent bums with half of their old coaching staff won ten games, beat Clemson and Dabo by 70-33, and six years of his recruiting and we still get excuses......I think Holgorsen matured a LOT last year, and am interested to see how him handing off the offense goes, if he will really let go or not. If he lets go and lets Spavital really run it, he is finally a HC. Hope I see these high expectations come to fruition this fall!!!

Yeah... that same group with lack of depth... got worn down by LSU. Were in an embarrassing loss to SU too. Lost to a mediocre UofL team at home and barely won their last 3 games to earn a tie for first in the weakest conference among the AQ.

Luckily for them, they had time to heal and improve before the Orange Bowl... and were lucky Clemson's players quit.

Dabo is considered one of the best in the business today. He was nearly fired after his 2nd season as HC... and even more Tiger fans were on board in letting him go after losing 70-33 to WVU. Any coach who'd have his players quit on him like that Orange Bowl team did... deserves to be fired. Right DAD?

BTW, having a bare cupboard indicates lack of depth. Not talent. Of course you know that by now. We've only repeated this same line of bullshit for the past 6 years. Fucking troll...
