Sad day, a WVa great has passed on.

[WVUDAD]

The dean of WVa sportswriters, a guy who covered WVU sports for 70 years, he did more for WVU sports than any but a select few.
Remembering Mickey Furfari, the ‘dean’ of W.Va. sports writers

I would agree that He was an icon, growing up Mickey was the gospel....wished he would have hung it up about 10 years earlier though, his reporting and opinions in his last remaining years just were so far off course I felt bad for him..
