A team takes on the personality of its coach....
- Thread starter steeleer
- Start date
At the risk of piling on my one complaint about DH teams is they’re not mentally tough. More often than not they fold under pressure. Sometimes it’s just the pressure of the bright lights.

What makes you think we lose only 2 more. We could lose all 5.
You realize WVU came in ranked 6th tonight right? Who else would be a better head coach? You really want to bring in the next hot Coordinator. Or some hot shot from Memphis.
He doesn’t suck, but we will never be more than what we are with him as HC. There are programs in worse shape. We just deserve more.
You realize NOW that ranking was completely overrated...right???
One loss and here come the band geek fans that paint their face haha. One bad day at the office and coach sucks. Let me guess WVU should win as much as Bama or Ohio State. Ok got it.
Deserve more.....aaahahahaha! Like Bama more? Your expectations are to high. The disgusting thing is that shit Texass will be Top 7 this week. College football just doesn’t have many good teams.
Will Grier is IMO the best QB in this country. We got smoked and he looked lost. How is that not a coaching issue??? To add to this, next season will be a major rebuild. No better time to transition.
There is a large divide between Bama and what we saw tonight. I can take losing. I can’t stand quitting. We quit.
Don’t double down. You’re coming off as a geek fan that’s pissed at a loss. Grier may or may not be the best QB. I happen to agree with you. I do think he is a future Pro. The OL looked overwhelmed and that to explains a lot of what happened tonight. Great players have poor games. Even solid coaches have bad weeks.
This is a trend. Kansas was awful and the second half against TT was as bad. At what point do we call this what it is?
Hey don’t get me wrong. I’m disappointed in the effort tonight as well but at least let’s see how things go over the next few weeks.
Played and executed poorly. That’s how players look at tonight. Geek fan look at it the way you do........like the world is coming to an end so fire the coach hahaa.
Would you take a Big Ten guy and feel good about him recruiting and scheming to win Big 12 games?
I agree with this statement and have said it before ... Dana's laid back attitude seems to make him ignore fundamentals. He's not a complete failure as head coach, but his teams routinely fall into a pattern of poor fundamentals, stupid penalties, and just imploding when things get tough. It's why I get so frustrated, despite many posters on the board maligning me for it, when WVU wins sloppily so many times. It's because it leads to an embarrassment like this. I know even the best of teams have down games, but after they find as way to win its usually back to stream line the next week. WVU's last 6 quarters of play before this game telegraphed this beat down. The only hope was for WVU to get its crap together and play like they did in the first 2 games.

Actually you've predicted that we would hire a new head coach without firing DH and have co-head coaches.
You say lots of stuff.
You really think the best QB in the country throws 3 straight interceptions in the end zone against Kansas?
You are hysterical....as usual.
I just thought we were bored and would hit that extra gear when needed. It’s not like Grier just forgot how to QB. Apparently that extra gear isn’t there. I would argue it hasn’t been there since the Orange Bowl against Clemson.

In this case, it's of a loser who folds like a cheap suitcase when faced with the slightest bit of adversity or challenge.

Matt Campbell just showed you the recipe for beating a soft Big XII team. With (Big Ten/Mount Union/Ohio high school football) smack you in the mouth football.
