From ESPN article talking WVU's upcoming season
West Virginia has a lot to replace on defense, on the offensive line and at receiver. On top of that, the Mountaineers have somewhat of an unknown in Grier, who though talented, hasn't played for a season-and-a-half. Yet with all that being said...
Heading to Cincy....I am not sure I like this, I imagine he wanted more, but with Wickline there did not get it. I think he has done a real good job for us, Cincy is getting a good coach.
Not sure Wickline is worth it...
Maybe they bring in a full time special teams coach??
Man what a treat it was to watch this guy play this year. Had one of the best defensive years in our schools history.
62 tackles 8 ints 1 TD 24% defensive completions
Amazing how much improvement in one season. Seemed to be one player that showed up every week to play.
I am still...
I am as happy as I can be right now with the direction of the program.
The next test for DH and this staff if can they win when they are the favs and getting all the praise in the press...can they keep this team focused and prepared for the next game. Last year he answered the critics with...
Damn gentlemen.... here we are sitting at 3-0 and all we are talking about is who will be the next coach.

So what are you guys thinking about this weekends game?
Someone has to check this....
I read today that in the 121 year existance of Marshall they have only beaten 20 power 5 teams. I did not check this......but i would have never guessed that.
I would like to announce that during the National Anthem at the WVU game I will be standing in protest of the mistreatment of our nations veterans, the flooding of drugs into our communities by big pharmacy, and Pitt. Feel free to stand with me as one nation always striving to better ourselves...
We really need to start talking football.
We usually have our prediction thread soon, but I need something.
Anyone have any good topics besides why DH is good or he sucks?
Come on boys give me something.
Gentlemen,
As I read more and see more I still cannot believe the gripes oh DH and his job at WVU. Short list of good and bad, feel free to add.
Good:
36-28 Winning record 4 out of 5 seasons while rebuilding...7 and 8 wins rebuilding. (just for comparison sake-DN was 34-22-2 in first 5 of...
West Virginia spring game: Three things to watch
We should be solid on both sides of the ball. Biggest concern is CB and RB as we sit today. I do think Howard will have a wonderful season and if you checked he had a very good first year of running this offense comparable to the history of the...
