What’s the best movie with a WVU reference?

It’s ATRM.

Chris Penn was a GOAT in "All the Right Moves" as Riley, a loyal friend to Stef who played with future WVU players. Penn's portrayal was marked by his authenticity and emotional depth, showcasing the struggles of small-town life and the pressures of ambition.

After attending USC on a football scholarship, Riley became known for his dynamic presence in films throughout the '80s and '90s. His talent was evident in a range of roles, from dramatic to comedic, many times due to his fluctuating weight, yet he often found himself in the shadow of his more-talented brother, Sean Penn.

Tragically, Penn passed away in 2006 at the age of 40. Riley’s untimely death robbed the film world of a gifted actor who had much more to offer. "All the Right Moves" remains a testament to his ability to play with future WVU stars like Shadow, bring complexity to his characters, and capture the frustrations of youth in a way that resonates deeply.

We can not afford to let him go this year. Everyones buyout drops with another year played. Were do we think the money would come from? If it's from donors it will indirectly affect NIL in future donations. Not good. Let's see how the rest of the season plays out. It will be tough but 8 and 4 is not that bad to justify letting him go.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (Nov. 5, 2024) – The No. 10 West Virginia University men’s soccer team took home its first Sun Belt regular season title in program history on Tuesday, escaping a hostile environment at No. 8 Marshall with a 0-0 draw. The Mountaineers finish with 19 points, two clear of the Thundering Herd in the conference table.


Overall, West Virginia goes 10-1-6 on the season while Marshall goes to 9-1-6.


The Mountaineers are the No. 1 seed in the upcoming Sun Belt Tournament and will play Georgia Southern, Sunday at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium with kickoff set for 3 p.m.


The WVU defense was phenomenal on Tuesday evening, allowing just three shots on goal against the high-powered Marshall attack. Redshirt-senior Marc Bonnaire made three saves to earn his eighth clean sheet of the season.


Overall, Marshall outshot the Mountaineers, 13-7, with a 3-2 edge on shots on goal. West Virginia had a 4-3 advantage in corner kicks while Marshall committed seven fouls to WVU’s six in a relatively clean contest.


Marshall had three of the best chances in the game, first hitting the crossbar in the 28th minute. In the second half, the Thundering Herd looked to have open nets as they got past Bonnaire, but the WVU defenders stayed calm and cut off angles, forcing a pair of shots to go wide.


The best chances for the Mountaineers came late in the first half, but shots by junior Felix Ewald and sophomore Sam Nyenka were saved.


With Marshall needing a win, the Thundering Herd kept the attack on, earning two corner kicks in the final five minutes but could not find the back of the net.


Overall, it is the eighth conference title and third regular season championship in program history, having won the Big East in 2006 and the MAC in 2018.

West Virginia will host the University of Charleston tonight at 7:00 at the Coliseum. The game is on ESPN+.

What do they agree on?

1. Sodexo sucks
2. WVU fans got spoiled during the Pat White years
3. West Virginia isn't that f'in special
4. You can't recruit the talent you need at WVU to win the B12
5. WVU is #poor
6. All the above

"You would know the vibe more than I would just because I'm not on social media. I get that they want to win, but what I would say is, did they have a good time? You know what I mean? Like, did they enjoy it? It was a pretty good atmosphere. You know, I'm assuming they had probably had a pretty good time tailgating. So if they're in the deal for enjoyment, then I would come back because I looked at the weather. It's going to be nice again. It's a night game. And so, and we need them to provide a home field advantage. We need them.

I get they're frustrated that we didn't win. You know, we played a tough schedule. You know, everybody that's beat us hasn't lost. All right. But that's no excuse. That's just the truth. And the games in our league are going to come down to the fourth quarter. And I don't think this one on Saturday is going to be any different. So we need them to help us.

I do get their frustration, but I don't think it's, when you watch our product, I don't think the product is something that they should be, other than the outcome. Like our kids play hard. That was a really physical football game on Saturday. There's a lot of West Virginia kids out there spilling it out. And so there was clear strain, clear physicality. It was an entertaining football game. If you're a football fan, you're just watching that. It's pretty entertaining. We just didn't play well enough to win. And so I hope with that in mind, they would come back for another entertaining game that hopefully we can play better at the end and win."

My Fiver on WVU's big win over Robert Morris to start the Darian DeVries Era in Morgantown Monday night...

1. Sencire Harris. 4 points on 2-3 shooting (0-0 3pt), 4 rebounds, 3 blocks, 1 assist, 1 steal, 0 TO in 25 minutes - that box score isn't exactly going to jump out at you. But, Harris was my MVP Monday night. This kid is a DAWG. Ballhawk. When we landed the boatload of transfers to construct this team, I'll admit I was far more excited about Tucker DeVries, Amani Hansberry, even Jayden Stone. But, right now, I want this kid on the floor as much as humanly possible. He plays so damn hard, he's going to need breaks. And the nice thing about his defensive intensity is that it's contagious. The other guys feed off of it. How good were our defensive possessions before the first media TO? We go into the first media TO up 16-0. And my favorite part of Harris's game is the 3 blocked shots. He never gives up.

2. Tucker DeVries. DeVries is obviously a big time player. It's going to be fun to watch him go up against better competition, but more than anything else, it's nice to have a bonafide sniper on our squad surrounded by guys who can penetrate if needed or pickNpop if necessary. It's going to be difficult to overplay him with Javon Small and KJ Tenner running point, or with Amani Hansberry or Jonathan Powell setting screens. 18 points on 6/13 shooting including 4/9 from "3" is a great way to start the season. Love the fact that he has a quick trigger and seemingly no conscience.

3. KJ Tenner and Jon Powell are damn good as freshmen. I'll give Darian DeVries a lot of credit having these two true freshmen not only ready to play, but ready to be an integral part of our top 8 in rotation with absolutely no dropoff when they enter the game. Powell is going to be a big time player for us. And I feel great for the future knowing we have Tenner in the fold at point. Those two combine for 5/9 from "3" and 21 points off of the bench - and in 36 combined minutes have zero turnovers.

4. Our "5" position will be interesting to watch this season. Amani Hansberry hits for 9 points and 12 rebounds, 2 blocks and a steal in 26 minutes. Eduardo Andre went for 4 points, 4 rebounds and a block in 14 minutes. I'd like to see Hansberry get hot from outside, as we'll need his ability to stretch defenses. 1-4 from "3" was fine, but not real good. He's going to be a great PnR option for DeVries, Okani, Small, etc. this season, as he can not only roll to the rim for a lob, but can pickNpop if necessary. You lose that ability with Andre on the floor...but we're going to need 15 minutes a night from Andre. That does worry me a bit, as Andre isn't exactly up to Big 12 standards. He's going to struggle a bit vs. better competition, and you just hope he's able to rim protect, rebound and get the occasional putback while in for Hansberry.

5. Outlook after game 1? Well, TeamRankings.com has WVU pegged at 13-16 projected after Game Uno, #74 in the country, #13 in the Big 12 and 1n 18% chance to make the Dance. I liked what I saw Monday night, thoroughly enjoyed the 30-2 start, and enjoyed the refreshing new style of basketball we play. We let our guard down as the game wore on, but that was inevitable. We still were +8 in the 2nd half after going into the break with a 20-point lead. Darian DeVries has put together a team with great length across 1-4, great athleticism, shooters everywhere you look, a couple defensive specialists, and big time point guard play with Small and seemingly with Tenner. This team will be able to compete with most, if not all, opponents on our schedule. We look well-coached and connected. While we'll have off nights here and there, there is potential here to be Dancing in March.
