It’s really encouraging hearing Pat talk about how many folks want the job. All there is to do now is sit back and wait for wren to do his thing. Wren has hit on both basketball teams I have no doubt about him bringing in the right candidate for football
As always I have faith in Baker I think he will definitely choose the right coach he has done an excellent job so far so why not let's go mountaineers 🏈🏈🏈🏀🏀🏀🏈🏈🏈
It is no risk signing with WVU. If they don't like the coach, they can redshirt the first year and go in the portal as soon as available. That would give them four years of eligibility elsewhere. I have heard the Penn State OC will interview for the head coach job at WVU. I am OK with a coach leaving on their own as that would mean they are paying WVU the buyout and that WVU is obviously doing very well for the coach to be desired by a higher tier college. RichRod is my pick. Just have to be smart with contracts. The good thing with RichRod is I believe he would retire from WVU and not leave again.
My humble opinion and trust me I’m no subject matter expert. My concern is WVU cannot afford to swing and miss on this if we do we won’t be relevant again in our lifetimes. With that being said I don’t think we can take the chance with brining in a G5 coach again we seen it at WVU Auburn and Florida it doesn’t always translate. I also feel we can’t afford to bring in a coach past their prime Jimbo and Rich Rod had their hay day but I don’t think they would do well in a new P4 setting. If I had to pick a top candidate I would really try to get the D coordinator from UGA.
What would you think of the Ohio State coach today coming to West Virginia because I don't think they're going to keep him unless they win a national championship 🏆
I'm not a fan of him personally but I'm also not convinced OSU is gonna fire him, and even if so, it would probably too late for him to be a candidate for WVU as they will likely be in CFP and WVU will probably make a hire in the next couple weeks at max if not sooner IMO.
Had him on my candidate list but haven't heard anything about him being involved/getting an interview yet. Although I did see a clip on social media where he said he would accept an interview with WVU and would love to.
Actually it is paid as his normal monthly salary through the end of 2027. It isn't a total one time payment. he definitely isn't hurting financially though.
Amazes me i hear. No one talking even a single word why neal brown was fired... Defense. Who ever we hire if he uses the same defense coaches an Joke style of the 3 man D line zone he will be booed out of town sooner then brown. I cant wait to see what the new head coach does with single handed biggest problem with WV football an why we havent been to a major bowl in 13 years....

Exactly Sam, just got to trust in Wren! It is super exciting that people are campaigning for the job to McAfee it sounds like!

Right on Tim! Got to trust Wren!

Becht?

People quit being sorry for Neal Brown. He is leaving town with almost 10 million dollars. He wont have to coach again if that is what he wants.

Don't sleep on Chip Kelly.
sleeping all day because thats never happening
Had him on my candidate list as well. Fan of the power conference experience but think he would be down the list if even considered.
I think both are a mistake, but Rich would be better than Fisher. Jimbo is a disaster.
Jimbo all day
Prefer Rich Rod as well. Thanks for watching and commenting BigDanT!
