I agree, Couz. Unless they underperform and make it an issue, I don't see the big deal of it for now.
Dude if he wins I don’t care if he hires his grandkids
@@thomasgoad83 haha! Well said.
They both have jobs that they have been part of before. Rhett knows what is expected out of the QB’s and knows the system. Raquel’s job is like a PR spot for football and handling the media points and such . Like a glorified assistant to all the behind the scenes office job. Huggs daughter worked for BBall for a long time and no one said anything. Let them do their jobs.
Just because the people in social media say its bad, doesnt make it so. People will disagree with everything he does no matter what
Amen
Just because people on here say it doesn't matter, doesn't make it so.
It’s blatant nepotism, Brett seems like very intelligent dude but he would not be in the position he is without that last name on his back but at the same time you really expect millionaires to play by the rules.
I could careless about their positions.... The buck starts and stops with HC, OC, DC and STC....
@@mr.smiles1031 well said
How much less could you care? Just ballpark estimate would be fine.
Think you are correct!
It only becomes a big deal if they do so poorly of a job that it impacts the team’s onfield performance. If that happens and Rich is not willing to make the necessary changes to correct the problem then that’s when those hires become a problem. I’m ok with whoever Rich hires as long as WVU wins football games. Right now I am neutral, I am not part of the fan base that hates Rich being hired but I am not part of the fan base that is wearing those gold & blue glasses thinking that we just hired the savior of the program. I will just wait and see what happens this next season. I also don’t think we will win more than 6 games and I am not going to freak out if that’s the case because when you hire a new coach it takes time to get things humming. I think too many of the fans have an unrealistic expectation to how next season will go.
Well said.
I'm a Miami fan. Mark Richt did this. His son was our QB coach. Name one decent QB we've had that didn't come from the transfer portal. I like Rich Rod, but this was a bad idea unless his kids have already made a name for themselves. (Which they may have. I don't know who they are.)
In every part of business people hire family. Who cares ? If he doesn't work out they all go too. Give them a chance.
On paper, did Rhett benefit favorably over more experienced candidates. Probably, particularly fans remember Pat White is still out there. In reality, this guy’s been trained for this job at the breakfast table for at least a decade now. By the dude whose offense he would be helping implement. I don’t think QB play is going to be the kryptonite of this team.
Remember that play rich did that when the ball.was snapped he had is team freeze in place for a second or 2
Yes
All the cool teams are doing it now 🤣
If he wins who cares , He losses there all be fired anyway .At this point trusting Rich Rod .Go Mountaineers
Winning cures all, but that's the hard part. Will he fire his son and/or daughter if they underperform? I think you all know the answer to that.
I think he is the head coach let the man build his staff however he wants to. That is his job. If I knew how to build a coaching staff I would be the head coach at wvu right now making millions.
If he wins, I don’t give a rip if he hires my dog.
Agreed
If he passed up better and more qualified people for these positions, than it’s probably an issue.
I'm sure he left no stone unturned to find those two.
No! They probably know more about Football than most all people. Just think they have been involved with football since Day 1 of there life! Just calm down! Stupid people smh
To me, i dont have a problem with it, however, if they start losing, he has to be willing to make the tough decision to let them go IF NEED BE!!!
If the kids don't perform at a high level, it will not be reported
It’ll be obvious by watching them.
People from West Virginia working for a team in West Virginia I seriously see no issues here I think people just want this to backfire on Rich Rodriguez because they don't like him and personally I think anyone that thinks like that is not a true fan of WVU wanting things to not work out for someone because you don't like them is a very ignorant way to think.
How about if they underperform? Are you OK with the Product not firing them?
@tutnod2449 if they aren't doing their job properly then I'm okay with them being demoted or fired
Most people complaining are the same that are complaining about rich coming back or not real fans.
I don’t blame you WVU fans for not caring but if this blows up in your face it shows that nepotism and expecting your descendants to follow in your footsteps doesn’t really work. Theirs a reason why Roman Emperors didn’t have their son or descendants usually succeed them and when that happened think about Commondus. Bill’s son is a rare case and but still he isn’t as good of a coach as they say. Not saying his kids aren’t good people but they wouldn’t be in a position close to where they are without their daddy. A lot of us don’t have daddy’s like that
Not a big deal. People need to get over it. There’s always a possibility that Pat White joins the staff and he would be fantastic in helping Rhett with coaching the QBs.
True.
I don't understand or share the accusations being brought against Rich Rod. He wouldn't hire someone that couldn't do the job and do it well. If you think any different he will get on them to get them right.
My only question would be does Brett have expertise is teaching quarterbacks how to be better quarterbacks? These other talents he has are wonderful be don't make quarterbacks better.
what up Couz!
What’s up Sascrotch?
If your new roof doesn't leak and it was installed on time and on budget, would you care if the crew was a father and his two children?
Nope. Ironically, I do indeed have a roof leak. So I definitely don’t care. 😂
I mean they have been around him and football their whole lives and his son played for him so no one should know how he wants it done more than them. So I don't have an issue with it as long as they do a good job which I expect they will.
As long as they’re not DEI hires and can add to the program bring the whole damn family in. Oh wait he has lol anyways let’s goooooooo. I didn’t even know Bob Huggins had a daughter until I started delivering to her house let me tell you that woman orders alot of packages lol
lol.
They might be DEI hires, but they are definitely nepotism hires.
The WVU family will be even better with these hires. Bottom line he can trust them to do what is best for WVU.
Well said.
How so? Are you OK with the Product not firing them if they underperform?
I think it's a big deal and this is the reason I think that we should be worrying about winning football game and who cares as long as you can win I mean yeah and there's more to it than winning I understand that
Ask yourself one simple question? Are those two more qualified candidates than others who you could have hired for less money? That being said who cares if he gets this team winning again.
Not sure about the less money part. I’d say hiring your family may be cheaper? 🤷♂️
Wonder what position the dogs will get 🤣. Jk I like the hires actually. Shows the strength of their family unit, and that translates in many walks of life including football…. Of course assuming they perform
That’s a great point.
That's the problem, if they don't perform up to expectations, will the Product fire them? I think you know the answer to that.
if he wins 9-11 games a season then I don't care if he hires his dog.
💯
Not sure it's a mistake Couz.... Maybe Rita demanded it!
Fair point.
I don't see it as an issue.
Win games the right way
Honestly I don’t give a shit. I don’t know why people spend so much effort on these things. Is it nepitism, of course, will this make the program more or less successful? Absolutely not. If this was a politician or something like that it would be an issue but this is just kinda par for the course for a lot of coaches and colleges as a whole.
Well said and love the new profile pic.
@ lol yea I figured it was time to change it.
Didn’t his daughter work for him at Jax State?
Yes. So did Rhett, but as an analyst.
Is any of them making 1.1 million to sit on the bench?😊
I honestly could care less….just win
How much less could you care?
Spend all that time and money for coaching and put a dud at coaching QB. Only WV
How do you know he’s a dud? How about giving him a chance.
No he didn’t- it’s a mole hilll
Andrew Caridi
@@billsheets1 another good example.
Idc wins cures all..
You'd think the Brown supporters would see whats happening at UNC compare the two, then not complain. " Karen's " 🥱
