Are we going to stay the course with our defensive coaches or are we going address the elephant in the room?

There are issues that go much deeper than the injuries exposed.

In 2005 the lights went out or partially out and there was a long delay. This story was posted on the Cincy board.

“Butch would tell a story about how Dantonio and Rich Rod met on the field to discuss if they should keep playing.


Dantonio was not keen on continuing to play because he worried they couldn't pick up the ball in the air in the dim light. Rich Rod said, don't worry about it because we aren't gonna throw in in these conditions. First play after that, WVU threw a big bomb for a completion(TD?) and according to Butch, Dantonio lost his sh*t on the sideline.”

The entire D staff gets canned in the offseason and Neal and Ren will sell the next renaissance of mountaineer football. Oh and the plebs will eat it up.

Maybe I am in the minority on my understanding of this...

On the fake, the holder's knee was down on the ground when he received the ball. How is he then allowed to advance the ball?

Jesus....

It's a little bit crazy and some of these will be updated later this week, but I thought even a small ray of sunshine might improve a victory as sour as last night's.

What’s your prediction for the rest of the season? How does it compare with your preseason expectations?

I had us at 6 wins but I also had the Pitt game as a win. I think we lose this weekend and that will be the low point. I think we will go on to win 3 of the next 6, perhaps even 4 of the next 6 to finish with my preseason prediction or perhaps even exceed those expectations.

Will 6-6 or 7-5 be enough considering the three teams that beat us are currently undefeated? If we finish 4 and 1 post K State, can we hang our hat on momentum for next year or is it more of the same of false hope (ie last years schedule and subsequent record)? Does the bowl game matchup/outcome matter?

This quote is from an article you wrote in July.

“The defensive coaches saw coordinator Jordan Lesley going from $750,000 in the final year of his three-year extension to $775,000 this year and $800,000 the next. The other defensive coaches saw secondary coach ShaDon Brown going from $450,000 on his last contract to $500,000 this year and $525,000 the next…”

Did that mean that Lesley and Brown’s contract were up this past year and we gave them new 2 year deals with raises?

If so that is more negligent contract management. It’s not like the defense was good last year. Just the offense and one exceptional corner covered it up.

Sounds like we had a chance to get rid of both contracts and instead locked ourselves in for another 2 years.

as we've had in 7 games. Good grief.

FSU fan…preseason top 10. You sit at 1-7 and if you fired you coach you owe him 74 million buyout….plus you are tens of millions into a legal battle to get out of the conference that is handing you your butt - ROFL

Bill Bedenbaugh is having a tough year

Oklahoma has now allowed 38 sacks on the season, currently most in FBS. Gave up 9 again today vs. Ole Miss.

Most OU has allowed in a single season since 2004 is 41 (2015), per @TruMediaSports. And they have 4+ games left.

Defensive Coordinator. He is terrible.

Game will kickoff at 7 p.m. Saturday and be televised by FS1.

The saying goes "a win is a win is a win." Can't disagree. This was about as ugly of a win as I can recall in my 64 years of following Mountaineer football.
There were two Arizona touchdown passes where there was not a Mountaineer defender within 5-10 yards of the receiver. (Those don't include the
Arizona TD pass into the end zone where our defender fell). On one of the two TD mentioned earlier - we had two defenders who were not on any Arizona play
while the pass went to a guy wide open in the middle of the field.
AND don't forget the guy who was wide open near the side line late in the game who dropped a certain TD pass.
Indeed a win is a win is a win. But the gross errors noted above have happened in every game this year. And no adjustments have been made to the pass coverages. There I feel better now.

Found our qb. Let’s fn goooooo. Next stop the turkey sandwich bowl.

doesn't it feel good to wake up with a win on Sunday morning? I know we haven't beat anyone with a pulse, but I'll take the W for my own mental well being. The last two Sunday's sucked. Beautiful day in Morgantown and taking my son fishing. Cheers everyone

Six years of irrelevance. Soon to be 7.
